Buck Lake

If we have any more fun, we're just going to bust!

Who's chair is that?

That's my chair. So what!

Publix does it again!

"Where shopping is a pleasure."
Yesterday I went looking for "Extra Strength Tylenol".  This is what the doctor told Carol to take for her foot after surgery.  No Advil or Aspirin.

So I went to the CVS in Port St. John.  No Tylenol anywhere on the shelf.  None.  Hmmmmm.

Then I went to the CVS in Cocoa.  Again, no Tylenol anywhere.  Very odd.

They were both on the right side of the road and very easy to run in and run out of.

Mistake.  Should have started at Publix in the beginning.

So I drove across the street to Publix.  Walked up to the pain medicine area and sure enough, there was a very nice, typed and printed sign saying a recall on Tylenol had depleted stocks.  Well that was really helpful to know.  I asked the very nice lady behind the counter what would be the best generic to use in this case.  She kindly came out from behind the counter and showed me all of the equivalent Publix brand versions.  I walked up front to checkout.  There were six checkout lanes working and no more than two people in each line.  Once more, shopping was a real pleasure.  I love this place!

Mike doesn't have a sense of humor :-(

This is hilarious.

Hi
I've noticed that as soon as I add a reference to the Manifold System Type Library in MS Access 2007, I get an undefined function error when using Left(). Strangely Right() still works, Any ideas how this may be resolved?

Give money to Greece. Left() still won't work but it will pretend to.

Shed

Tomorrow, Saturday, April 3, 2010 is shed day at Tim's house.  We bought all of the wood for a full deck foundation, so now all that we need to do is assemble it.  Should be fun.  Tim and Richard Taylor have already built one of these at Richard's house so hopefully it will go up pretty quick.  Especially if we read the instructions :-)

Cold

It's been cold here.
Did I say it's been COLD here.
Oh well, it's warmer than Minnesota.  I usually include a picture or some thoughts about being outside when I write a post here and I haven't been outside much lately.  That's because it's been COLD here.

Ft. Clinch:  Once again, the Scouts were pooped out after the hike down the beach.  I think they'll go back in two years though.  It was a good campout.

Ordeal:  Three Scouts went through the Ordeal.  Challenger District (new?) Chapter had a good Ordeal Ceremony.  Three Leaders had breakfast at the pancake place at DeLeon Springs, checked out Holly Bluff Marina, goofed off and cooked some steaks, potatoes, salad, etc for dinner.  All in all a perfect weekend.

Canterbury:  Canterbury Retreat Center in Oviedo has a nice ropes (cable) course and the instructor is very good.  Lunch was GREAT!  We had a good day there.

Lessons learned:  Turn off the water before you take a faucet apart.  The new faucets in our house have the capability to erupt into a geyser if you loosen the wrong nut and don't turn off the water first.  You can't put the part back in until the water is off so once it starts spraying all over the bathroom you're stuck with a flood until you get it turned off.  Too bad the water stop under the sink doesn't work either, so you have to go outside to turn it off!  Thanks Carol.

Valentine's Day was great because I'm married to Carol :-)

Tim's going to have a baby boy!  Yippppppppppppeeeeeeeeeeee!
