Jim and Debbie, I've been up that fire tower quite a few times, but it's been many years ago. I don't think I'm up to walking up all those steps right now. (Although that sounds like a great goal for next year!)
Dena's been a busy girl, lately. Her business is booming and she's working all the time, so I don't think she's open to my persuasion about it. (grin)
I should have some time Sunday to edit the video about my adventure all the way to the land of Degatide! I'll get it uploaded as soon as I can.

- I just checked my calendar. I was here all day Tuesday. I guess it's farther to the range than I thought, cause I didn't hear anything.
I've been told that when I have my nose in a book that the house could burn down around me and I might notice.
I don't need a day as busy as you had! I'm very happy it was you and not me. (grin

Whew! Just missed it by "that" much! (grin)
That reminds me, I shot some video this spring about the target range and never edited it into an uploadable video. That's something else I need to do.
500 rounds in an hour! It's a wonder I didn't hear that from here. Sounds like fun.

Wow! You really were busy! I'm half-way glad I didn't see you, because you would have tried to put me to work!
Sounds like you're making good progress.
I'll look forward to seeing you next visit and I'm betting a fire and hot cider will go good in February. (grin)
I'll get that video edited and uploaded in a few days. It's kind of hectic here, right now. Lots of work-related stuff that all needs to get done yesterday.

Good morning, Jim and Deb.
Last week, while I was out driving around, I did some exploring and found your future slice of paradise in Degatide. I shot video of the leaves going from Sandy Gap down to your property and back and I'll be uploading it in a few days so you can see what your drive will be like in the fall when you move here.
I hope you like it, when I get it edited and uploaded.

- Happy birthday, Jim and Debbie! It's amazing that both of you have the same birthday. (grin)
Seriously, I hope whichever of you is having a birthday today has a great day!

- I had a minor setback the last 24 hours, but everything is going much better tonight. Looking forward to walking more and sitting in a chair now that I'm tethered by fewer tubes!

- Good morning, Jim and Debbie.
Welcome to our friendly little online community for people who are interested in Murphy.
That's a nice collection of old gas pumps and Coca-Cola products you have in your collection, as shown on your website.
If there is anything I can do to help you get more from Murphy Connections, please let me know.
All the best,
JD
