First of all I need to share this picture of my granddaughter Allyssa
as I think it is adorable. And congrats on starting kindergarden this year!!
I was still at the new york state fair and I saw this tractor in a parade they were having...it is a tribute to my sister Deb!

| Pink tractors? whats next? |
The local New York guy that was running the show is named Marty, and a real gem of a guy. On my day off he asked if I wanted to go golfing, so he picked me up and took me out to a golf course pays for the golf and he tells me he let me win (I do not think so as I beat him by 11 strokes) 87 to 98. Then He takes me over to his house to meet his wife, they then grill some local sausage some salt potatoes and whatnot. very pleasant day off.. Thanks again Marty!

On the last day of the fair Charlie Daniels was playing on the free stage outside the building our boothe was located in, so I stepped out and caught a little of the show. Pretty cool!!

Then I was home for a blink of an eye and it was off to San Jose for a weekend home show! They put me up in a pretty nice joint downtown....on the 9th floor.

On Sat nite the gent running the show (Manny) took me out for dinner to Santa Cruz down by the ocean. really nice place and great sea food. One of the cool things is the sea lions..we do not have them down in Florida!

| Sea lions! way cool! |
So the last night there I decided to run over to the Winchester House. Apperently it was built by the widow of the guy that invented winchester guns. She was nuts after he died and went to a fortune teller who told her she had to keep buildin to keep the ghosts of all the indians that her husbands guns killed from haunting her. so she kept construction going all her life on this house, it covers six acres and has 180 rooms..yikes.
