Here are some images from my ipad which help me remember how lucky I am:

1. Lila, aka the rat aka bunny dog:





2. Ten days in Alsace with our daughter Charlotte after she nailed HS valedictorian:





3. Loading up for a solo long weekend of head clearing riding in VT:

4. And most importantly my wife Sara, who makes everything right and good:

Hi Scout,                                                                                             12-8-21

Our goal was to always make things better for our kids than they were for us.  Apparently, you have done so.  Good job parents!

Be well, stay well,
DougG

Thanks everyone for the kind words.  I started the thread wanting to liven up the forum a little and hoping to see more of your lives.  I got caught up in my own world and maybe shared too much.   I will get a shot of the G5 for Groover.

Yeah Baby!  Same here!

Very considerate of you Dan.  No point in potentially injuring their self esteem.   :undecided:

The rest of the Wild Guzzi Flock........ has two more blessing than they thought previously.

1.  NCDan's humility.
2.  My humility.

You lucky ducks, er, uh, geese!!!   :wink:

Continued good fortune to you and your family. I often recall things I miss about France. It was long ago.  R3~

Every time I walk out of the Dallas Texas VA hospital I brag that I'm the richest luckiest man in the world.

Today my daughter and SIL finally after 875 days are officially the proud parents of their adopted son. Yes, 875 days of court dates, the jailed sperm donor etc delaying the adoption.
