CRISPINS CRITTERS

[AU24K]

A quick story of camping with some Friends a few years ago...
Me and 3 other guys were camping in my mountains and around the campfire big talk was spoken.

I said, "Try to watch this."

The next closest campsite was about 200 yards away through forest.

I snuck up on their campsite, slowly found a seat on a log in the shadows, worked my way to their camp fire and was eventually offered a beer!

Ah! What I learned as a kid in the Army!

Best,

Scott

Let's Fly, shall we?
Jump from a perfectly good airplane?
Yeah.
You have never experienced such a thrill...

One more jump!

I almost went skydiving once, while in the USAF. Was stationed in San Antonio and a friend invited me to New Mexico - was supposed to be the first time for both of us. She calls me up one evening and asks if I'd been watching the news....I said no. She said that one of the instructors, at the place we were supposed to be at in about a week, had died. His chute didn't open. He was by himself and conditions were beautiful. His chute just....didn't open! We himhawed a while trying to figure out if we wanted to maybe try someplace a little closer, but decided in the end that it just wasn't that important.

She was Air Traffic Control and had been given rides in a couple of fighters, so she thought she was ready. I spent many years in the EAA (Experimental Aircraft Asso.) and had flown in some pretty darn small aircraft. But, what can I say?? ...But I'm betting that would have been a fun trip!

I don't always think right.

I seldom think like others think.....

But I ALWAYS think of others.......


Es ist nur ich, Mein Freund....
Ein herzlicher Weihnachtswunsch an alle!

Bravo Sierra transmission, over. New frequency is Charlie Delta 632. Over...

Come in please Charlie Delta 632, Over........

(Static.....)

Yeah. Us "Cold War" Vets who kept America and the world safe from mutual Nuclear self assured Destruction.
Think about it for just a minute....
At 18 years old, I patrolled Germany alongside and with the German Nationals.
I had their ear....
TO Keep America, Europe and the World safe....

This is why I advocate for recognition of "Cold War" Vets.
Perhaps my Congressman Friend can provide answers and mental and physical help towards my passion of our Vets........




And....I've said too much again.....I've much to accomplish in the short time that I have left.....
Time again to "get busy." Dig?

And there ain't no mountain top is too high nor a valley too low...

When my Brothers and Sisters need me, I'll be there for them.....

Dram, tell any of your Southern Friends that you will mail them all the snow that they want.
If they come to visit, offer to fill their trunk with Northern Pride snow!
How much, you may ask? For merely $50 US! Minimum. Semi trucks get the Haney discount!

"Really! Did you think that I'd leave you stranded with a trunkful of snow when you got back to Florida? NO! I'm more of a Humanitarian than that, Mr. Scotty Douglas.... As such, I'm prepared to sell you the last snow shovel in these surrounding counties. Now I must tell you that bidding is fierce, but you have always been my Friend, right?"

Y'all throw another log on the fire, have another drink and stay warm!
(Yeah, I like eggnog and rum. You hold the eggnog, I'll hold the rum....)

Best,

Scott

For my Friend and Brother, 2GF,



"Time"

Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
Fritter and waste the hours in an off-hand way
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way

Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain
You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun

And you run and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking
Racing around to come up behind you again
The sun is the same in a relative way, but you're older
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death

Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time
Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way
The time is gone, the song is over, thought I'd something more to say

Home, home again
I like to be here when I can
When I come home cold and tired
It's good to warm my bones beside the fire
Far away, across the field
The tolling of the iron bell
Calls the faithful to their knees
To hear the softly spoken magic spell

Best,

Scott

"Ya know, sumthin' 'bout ole Scotty that I liked?

No matter his difficulties, he was always there to help his Friends!"





(I've always believed the lyric to be: "...the pompousness of love....")

Word around the campfire is that Scott has some cute arthriotisis ()

Severe pain in his left hand, his primary use hand, meaning that playing my guitar is barely possible.

Such a harsh sentence imposed upon me!

Perhaps I can sing?

Fought more with the snow plow in Nov. Solenoid for plow motor and the usual rusted in place lights that have never been right ,so move light bar around.
Extra red wire with nothing on the end??

Mounted the plow after a foot of snow and neighbors dragging around getting stuck.
( None dragged themselves over to shovel my ramp or clear off the truck though, should have waited another day or two...kidding.)

First push the plow came off the carriage on one side.Wheeeeeee!

Tis cold out. No snakes ,spiders,bee' s though.
Kid walks for college graduation farther north Sat..
A plow is nice for running into stuff ,but might pull it for the trip. Forecast says it will be snowing well though so ...who knows.

Take it easy, RC.
You can only do what you can do.

When I lived in Kansas, I moved alot of snow during the winters.

First our 1/2 mile driveway and then the neighbors.

I was always rewarded with hot coffee and cookies!



And remember, Santa is watching.....



Best Wishes,

Scott
