Hey dude!
Nope, no time off yet, will be going home march 4th, have already gone insane. The weather does sound better here than there, but it is definitely a lot cooler than it was last july, out there on 54 in the desert. I"m not so upset about missing all the snow and ice. th ewife was trapped in the house for almost 3 days, couldnt' get out because of the deep freeze. Take care, and hopefull I"ll still be able to form coherent speech when this is all done. Later! Jerry
