Your timing on taking profits last Wednesday was excellent , big ' O ' .
. I should have sold out a day or two sooner .
Clayt. and Dick took Clayt.'s fifth wheel down on the Kenai last Friday and parked it at Scott's gift store near Soldotna for the summer . Cindy'll go down for her annual wood carvers BBQ the weekend before Memorial day weekend . I'm still in Hawaii but fly out of here next Friday the 4th and drive down to Homer on the 8th for a couple of days and then drive north to Fairbanks on May 17th to hang my for sale sign on my North Pole lot so my summer'll start off busy . I'll take the Denali Hyway at Cantwell and drive east to Paxson before heading north again . That road isn't maintained or plowed all winter and when the state opens that unpaved road on May 15th , I like to be one of the first travelers over it to see the wildlife before the tourist traffic takes over for the summer . I usually get hail or snowed on that first nite I spend in the middle of the hyway between Cantwell and Paxson . Most of the lakes are frozen over when I pass through and the culverts and ditches are full of spring break runoff . Road is usually open , but the sholders are really soft yet so you have to drive in the middle of the road which isn't a problem cause there isn't much traffic .
I asked the bearded one if he was headed south this spring and he wasn't sure . I asked him if he had called you and he said , " the phone works both ways " . ? ? . So you can see , he's being his usual friendly self .
. Don't know how Cindy puts up with it .
I'll call the milk drinker later this morning bright and early and let him know we chatted and see if I can't warm up up to the idea of taking a trip south .
Mahalo for checking in here . Later
