Good Evening, Everyone!
I've been torn lately on spending my time reading for the Fall Semester or
getting my ruck ready for this weekend's camping trip.....
Ah, to be in the mountains for a few days!
Might be awhile before I'm able to go again.....
I should hear back from the med equip repair people for a meeting this Thursday.
I've also got to go to the College to get my new Student ID, Parking Pass, etc.
Then I'm off for one last respite before
academics win over all free time.
As one who would never advocate gambling,

I wonder what the line in Vegas is for rain on Scott's trip?
Here' the latest info......
Dahlonega Weather - AccuWeather Forecast for GA 30533
But,
I've learned to not believe the damn prognosticators.
Pardon my vocabulary....
Ahem...
Instead, I'll prepare as usual with the knowledge that it can
get chilly in the mountains, especially if you are wet....
That reminds me, I need to replenish my magnesium fire kit with some new dryer lint.
And waterproof some matches.
And read chapters 4-8 in the first book.
Wow! So much to do, so little time!
Summer is quickly running out.
I hear rumblings of .....Football!
Sheesh!
We're not even down to MLB Playoffs, yet!
Soon,
We'll see cold medicine creep into the commercial circuit on TV, then,
the exploitation of the Labor Day Weekend, the Halloween season, the Thanksgiving season, then, GASP!
Christmas ads and displays!
My point is;
It's time to slow down.
Yes, work hard, plan for the future, but,
Don't forget to stop for just a moment, every day,
to just be thankful for the blessings in your life.
Resolve to be a positive influence in someone's life, to hold a door open for someone,
to always be kind to animals, to help others in some way---
even if it's a smile and a kind word.
I'm sorry, but the only music that those 9 out of 10 were...
anyway...
Hope all have a fantastic and productive week ahead!
Best Wishes,
Scott
