its about the best job i have ever had !
friday night we were scheduled to have dinner with the top two folks from our clinic. i honestly had no idea that the whole crew was coming to give me a retirement party ! [ i might have run away if i had known ].
we had a great time and then they presented me with a gift.... a lever gun...since they know my interests.
at home and at work i am known as 'the bear' .... i like to think its because i am fierce and surly.... to be feared greatly. my son, the first born, has to spoil this by pointing out that he gave me this nickname because i was like Pooh bear... [ dont listen to this, i am to be feared...please ]
the rifle was a custom order from Henry, a 44 magnum. the pictures tell it all.
