The wife came down with something yesterday evening and she’s not doing too good at the moment. I slept in my sons room last night because I can’t really afford to take off sick. With my immune system the way it is I will probably get it anyway.
Do you see the fisherman?

I finally heard back from my oncologist yesterday. It was such an emotional day yesterday that I forgot to post something about it. It took them three weeks for them to get around to find the time to read to me my results. Anyway, I know their busy and no news is good news, right? Two months ago my RBC-abl test was .135 which is not bad but remember we’re looking for zero. Yesterday I found out that that the new number is .08 which is better but again, not zero. The oncologist did say that it was not uncommon for it to take eighteen months for it to get to zero. It’s been 14 months as of the 14th of this month.
The above picture is of some pre-show entertainment for the Dixie Stampede, a diner show in Pigeon Forge Tennessee. If you’re ever there it’s a must see.

It was finally good to get home early this morning. Today I have been reacquainted with my recliner. Haven’t moved much all day. I didn’t sleep well on the bus after leaving Dollywood in Pigeon Forge, never could get comfortable. I had gotten a little motion sickness trying to work on my computer right after we left and that may have had a lot to do with it.
I absolutely love steam locomotives. Always have and I guess I always will. Wife and I went on a steam excursion about 20 some odd years ago from Birmingham to Chattanooga, Tenn. and that’s the last time I’ve seen one in operation. These workhorses are so majestic but yet have such a mournful sound when you hear their whistle blow off in the distance. One of these day’s I’d like to do some traveling just to find all the locomotives still in operation and do some photography work.
This locomotive can be found in Dollywood in Pigeon Forge Tennessee.
