You know, spending time with the parents is nice. Relaxing. Slow pace. We took a drive through downtown Eufaula (which is nice in a quaint kind of way). Had lunch on the lake. Went to Wal-Mart to purchase a couple of DVDs. Then I hooked up the DVD player we gave them for Christmas and we watched Fried Green Tomatoes. I have seen it several times, but I still enjoy it. First time for the folks and they got a kick out of it too. I have also been going through picture boxes and selecting some photos from the distant days of my youth to bring home. Oh, and had a great pork roast for dinner.

So, not much blog material in there, but sometimes real life is like that (which is something to be thankful for). Like everyone else we are just blown away by the devastation and loss of life from the Tsunamis. The horror these people are experiencing is simply beyond comprehension. And the carping about whether the US is stingy or whether the President should have had a press conference sooner is so dispicable in the face of this tragedy that it does not dignify refutation. It just sickens me that such small minds are even given a forum in the midst of worldwide grief.

Goodnight.
