Small world except mine never left home...well, they each (two sons) have their own homes and have given me seven grand children, but we have our own mountain top compound and each house is only a few hundred yards apart. So along with all the many chores and our logging to keep me busy in the summer months plus the threat of 'invasion' at any time by the grandkids, peace and quiet are at a premium around this time of year. Winter is my most active modeling time, once hunting is done by around Christmas, it's just ...keep warm and model. The wife loves her computer games also plus she works part time at our little general store a few miles down the road...life is good except for the occasional and expensive equipment break downs ...........Jim
