MARC'S MEMOS
3-4-13
I just returned from a trip to the “Strip”, Las Vegas that is. What an exciting destination. The thrill that grips you when you first arrive and the anticipation of adventure is palpable.
It was an interesting three days that went from exhilaration to resignation that you are not going home with the fortune you came here seeking. Even though I didn’t leave with a profit from gambling, I did have a great time and it was a nice departure from my daily routine.
I also just spent the afternoon with my grandson. He is just shy of his sixth birthday and is becoming a wonderful young person. We talk about everything and I ask him questions because I am interested in what he is doing and what he has been up to. Chronologically he is just a little boy, but his mannerisms and expressions of thought sometimes make him seem much older and I am amazed at some of his quips that seem to come out of nowhere.
An example of a recent exchange during one of our discussions had him stating, “My buns are married.”
I said, “Your buns are married?”
“Yeah, they stick together a lot” he says.
I know this may be funny only to his grandpa and just kid talk, but it made my day! I appreciate his company and love to be with him. His little sister is a doll and I love spending time with her too. I consider myself to be a very lucky man.
UNTIL NEXT TIME, TAKE CARE! MARC
