I was just going through some pictures and found this.My Bosses knew R/C flying was a big thing in my life, so this is a picture of my retirement cake they got for me. I just wanted to leave quietly, but they had different ideas in my last week that I worked. I was taken out for lunches and lots of goodies to remember them and the company I worked for. I worked with a great bunch of people over my 38years there. Some I still maintain friendship to this day , and we frequently get together. Where did the years go...It was so perfect , I didn't want to eat it LOL..

I've seen that type of thing before! Pretty cool how they can do that with frosting, with an edible printer. What kind of cake was it?

Lunch and a little xtra in my final paycheck. But then I was only with them for a little less than 8 years. They gave me a job when it was nearly impossible to get an interview let alone an offer after I got laid off in the last recession. I will always be grateful for that.

I think it was in seventh grade when my buddies found a brick behind the gym building.
They thought someone should launch it into the sky and see how big of a hole In the football field it would make when it landed.

Your humble reptile was nominated and duly accepted the challenge.

A masterful throw, unbelievable elevation, but gravity took hold and it slowly stopped its accession and started its return to from which it came. I stood there, admiring my accomplishment, beaming with joy as I watched it pick up speed on its plummet back to earth.

Coach passed last year but every time I went to visit him over the years, he always called me dumbass.
