My Old Friend Comes To Visit
Click on photo to enlarge
My lifelong friend Charlie Melton is driving up to visit for a few days.
He's on his way home to the Santa Monica Mountains from Las Vegas, of all places, where he was visiting his kids and grand-kids for Christmas and New Years.
Good friends for nearly 50 years now, we met when he was 11 and I was 13.
During our teens and early twenties we were inseparable sidekicks always on some adventure together. These days we only get to see each other once or twice a year but it's always a great time for us.
So we'll inevitably be sharing some good beers and stories while Charlie's here and the 'basketry lessons' may be suspended for a short period, but I trust you'll be patient with me. ;~)

eleutheros-
I have noticed that a large percentage of my friends are rather hairy and you certainly wouldn't look out of place around here.
jim-all your friends look like all right dudes to me. :) The Hermit and I are planning a trip out there as we speak, he even said he'd grow a beard if he had to. ;) I, on the other hand...don't have much to offer in that regard. But I do play a mean mandolin.
Deb-
You & The Hermit better hurry up and don't forget that mandolin.
And by the way I wish we were neighbors too, how much is land going for in your neck o'the woods anyway?
