Where have you been and how is Stephen? Hope things are getting better.
Stephen is doing great.. he had a CT scan last week, went in for the results Tuesday and the doctor said everything is in a strong healing process and that he looks like he's in a good remission. They are gonna keep a close eye on him for the next year with xrays and CT scans done every 6 weeks. I miss you guys too... he didn't work for a while so we are trying to do some catch up and the funds are holding me back. I miss the people and the dragon A LOT!!! Sorry I've been so distant I need to do better with that... I've been doing nothing much except work, home and a movie every now and then... the car needs some real love!! It has been neglected kind of like most things in my life here lately but that is gonna be a changing come warmer weather... I look forward to catching up some time this year. Stephens dad (89 yrs old) is about to pass and that's something that is hitting us too... he just lost his stepmother in November and with him fighting the cancer and now his dad it's just been like kind of depressing but all else is good. I really really miss doing shit...

If you want to come through Highlands, I can give you the Spring Fling Optional Sunday Drive to Highlands turn by turn and you can follow that to Highlands. I can guarantee you'll have fun.
