You must be busy working hard. I haven't seen you all week.

yeah; sorry 'bout that - work's been pretty hard this week, so I haven't been on much. How have you been lately?

I was on vacation and spent a few days in Duluth. Just needed to be away! Duluth is nice! Might go back for Fall color.

it is quite nice - I've been there a few times

got a look at your job site yesterday....very nice!

why thank you; you should have seen it before
