    I'll be walking my eldest daughter down the aisle.

    Then I'll probably drink too much champagne and make
    a stupid speech at the reception.

    She's marrying a Marine, who is also a good fisherman,
    so that's a plus.

    There goes my baby. God I feel old....

    taking the kids to a goat farm, I think they'll like it (they're 1 & 3).

    If she's marrying a Marine, she's going to be okay. You're going to be okay. By the way, you are not old!

    Dang Paul, congratulations!!!!!!

    Every Marine I know is a dang fine man. She’s lucky and so are you. Enjoy and have fun Brother.

    Joel, I know the kids will have a great time. These are the moments that mean the most. Kids are true blessings

    You are not old yet. Just wait until they have kids and you watch them grow up. When your grandchildren are ready to get married, then you are officially old.

    Oh...I can guarantee the boss will have us in on Saturday, making sure everyone has their boats for the weekend.
    So that means I'll be wiped out, a storm will move in on my day off, and I'll sit in the basement and sulk.

    So to all of you that are going boating this holiday...enjoy. I worked all week so YOU could enjoy yours.

    We have a long weekend north of the border as well - Victoria Day weekend. For some reason, we celebrate one of the homeliest British monarchs ever, but we do light off a whack of fireworks and enjoy our families. Then we try to avoid traffic accidents on the hiways home on Monday.

    To all my fellow American and Canadian SRP-ers, have a safe and restful and enjoyable long weekend.

    I am just coming to the end of my fishing vacation this time of year.

    We go the week end before Memorial Day so we can avoid the zoo on the roads and lakes.

    Lots of work to do around the house so I think I will putz around here.

    I'll be celebrating my 14th anniversary with my lovely wife, time flies when you're in love. I may make time for a fine cigar and scotch.

    My grandson and wife is having my first great grandchild so no your not old. And I’m not so sure my brother is a retired marine and I wouldn’t let him marry any one I know!
