Winter's Drawing Nigh
10-21-2021
Granted – Winter’s Growing Nigh (Near), and even down here in the mountains of “Usually Sunny California” the frost is fast beginning to form on “The Old Late October Pumpkins, And A Definite Chill Is Beginning To Permeate The Quickly-Chilling Mountain Air!” Of course, and it is also worthy to note - that being situated far up here in “The Oft-Time Frigid Back-Country”, and with more than a few of “My two-left feet dipping into the rapidly freezing mountain air”, the misnomer and the fallacy, of it never getting cold “Up Here In God’s Country” - is pure and unadulterated horse-manure! “It is, in reality- damn cold and winter is fast approaching - just beyond those quickly forming clouds out yonder!!” You know – For a dude that was partly reared in “The Blustering Chill of Out-Back New England”, and being no stranger to that blowing white-stuff, one would think that “The Bite of Winter” would begin to take it a little easier on my old octogenarian bones, but alas, maybe it is just time itself that is rapidly catching-up to my quickly decaying and rotting old carcass – “Who Knows For Sure?” Hardcore

Wow HC
I've heard it said "that your only as old as you feel". - As for Me: - I like the seasons of - "Spring & Fall" I hate hot Summer's - slows you down & always looking for shade. Chicago Winter's - can get really cold at times. But - In the spring new life emerges. And in the Fall - life begins its long winter sleep. - I'm going in for surgery soon - more test first - and the its the knife. Pain is atrocious at times - I've put it off - as long as I could. VA is lining up some more testing - blood work - I suspect sometime in Nov. I will go under the knife. Let's hope they can buy me some more time - as you know I have a sick wife. - We are old (even though we say we aren't) things break down. My wife - My youngest daughter - My Son-In-Law are all going under the knife - so I thought I would join in. - I suspect I will pull through it - I've had several before - I know the process. - You will be fine HC - you got grit - I will contact you once I've completed my medical issues.
