Sorry for the silence. I've been working in Charlotte and just never went through all of the barriers I was encountering getting on the net at my friend Gene Cline's house. But anyway...
Today is a banner day - The Hogg has turned the big five-o and he is feeling pretty damn good about it.
I arrived home about an hour ago, dead tired from too much ladder work and the pre-Thanksgiving I-85 traffic. When I walked in the house I noticed several cards and a small package sitting on our dining room table. My spirits lifted when I opened the surprise birthday gift from my now-favorite city council member who obviously understands what turning turning fifty and excellent taste is all about.
The Thanksgiving weekend starts tomorrow at oh-my-God-o'clock as I begin smoking several turkeys for my family and others starting around 6:00a. Apparently Jinni has some sort of a party planned for Saturday night in belated honor of my fifty-year-old ass. Call her if you want to participate and take note of the high bar that Mr. Phillips has set .
Happy birthday to me.
