In addition to the sadness of 9/11, I got a call at 4 AM this morning from my sister-in-law in southeast Kansas. My younger brother had a massive heart attack and passed away. The sad part is I was gonna call him tomorrow on his 76th birthday. Didn't get to do that. We had talked three weeks ago but it just ain't the same as wishing him a Happy Birthday. If you have a loved one you need to call, do it. My heart is broken because I should have called more often. Not wait for a special occasion.

Thanks Saw. May have to make a trip to southeast Kansas soon. I do have an 11 year younger sister there and other family. Neodesha, Kansas is where the Cobalt boat factory is. Big town of 3500 people. It is an 850 mile drive but have a friend in Eastern Colorado about half way.

Mighty sorry to hear the bad news Randy. It seems like things went down hill about the time covid started. I'm not far from you so if there's anything I can do to help let me know, ok? John
