Bear, I forgot to tell you that your service to our country is appreciated by all of us . A "ground pounder " is always welcome in heaven.
Well, I picked a helluva day to log on. Sad to hear but you've had a good run after those pesky heart issues a while back. Me? hanging on by a thread here...LOL....but the chemos working they say. I doubt I'm going to Heaven like you (go figure) but perhaps we can hook up at the Rainbow Bridge where a few critters wait for me I've been told. I haven't made meltys lately but I'm still hooked on Mrs. Bears Raspberry Chiffon pies! So, anyways, via con dios from one grunt to another.....Chef Willie
Thanks Red, for remembering. It has been a while. Been a helluva fight for three+ years but they say I'm in remission and I wake up every day. So there's that. Take care & thanks for all the advice on pellet pushers years ago. C-ya around at times....WillieHello Willie! It's been too long since we've heard from you Buddy...I'm glad you checked in - although for a sad reason. Sorry to hear you've had health problems too...please take care and check in occasionally when you're able.
Red
Thanks for sharing this with us Bear!Last Round-up
OK Guys, I don't know how much I got left in me, I'm on Hospice now.
Going downhill, but I don't want to explain it now.
However I have a couple of last items to show off:
The first one is the Coffee Table Bear Jr made in his shop, and sold last week.
The buyer sent him the items that he wanted put inside with the epoxy.
They are shells the buyers collected, some coins & some paper Caribbean Money.
The wood is "Natural Cherry".
The other items are Bethany's Eye-balls.
She went from making & decorating cakes, to Oil Painting Scenery, to Painting Kids & Pets.
They were all fantastic.
However now she is working on eyeballs.
Below are a couple Eye-balls she did with colored pencils.
I find it hard to believe they could look so real.
Maybe I should have gotten her to paint the eyes that were in my Bears?!?!
You guys all take care now.
See you all on the other side.
