Thanks for the well wishes! My birthday was awesome, sitting around a campfire with family, friends and cold beer, great food and of course presents! :bounce: Got a couple cards, a couple t-shirts and a few air fresheners for my truck. The sun was out and the kids (Darrel included) raced sailboats. Doesn't get any better than that.

Oh yeah...I got paid to have this fun...12 hours worth! :muhaha: :muhaha: :muhaha:
