I am a bad associate. I have not been posting. My good friend Mah-kus (say with a distictive upper crust voice, accent on the first syllable) got on my case for not posting. Sorry, Dude, I have been busy. Out of town guests, banjo lessons, dental surgery, etc... Did anyone get to administer birthday spankings for Markus this year? I was not around for the honor. If anyone has any pictures, please post them! Markus, you are a doll. Love, Octavia
