    I need to correct my earlier post. We will be going into Philadelphia. For a birthday present for my wife I was able to get us tickets to the Fancy Brigades 5 PM performance. This is the performance where they are judged. It is inside in the Pennsylvania Convention Center.

    Good afternoon folks Temperature is 37 F as I got into the office late today. It has been a crazy morning. The overnight rain started at 11 PM instead of 3 AM as the weather mis-forecasters predicted. Since it was in the twenties at the time we had icing before the salt trucks were scheduled...

    Les I like the look of the P2K stuff and how it performs. My problems stem from eyesight and a shaky hand. I have been near-sighted since the 1st grade but I can work around it and the bifocals and an over the counter reading glasses help. The shaky hand comes from a car accident 15 years...
