I just got a call from Dave. he had some problems last night at the motel and was taken by ambulance to the hospital. He is still there and they are running tests and he is hoping to get out today.
Dave was all worried about the pictures for the slide show, I told him not to worry we can all wait to see them and to just look after himself.

So thats why every time I check out the slideshow all I see is blank walls. And thats as good a reason as any. Take care and heal up Dave. I'd much rather see you in person again someday than to see a bunch of pictures.

Thanks folks...I am back on te job now. I have no recollection of what happened but Shirley said she thought I was having some kind of seizure. I remember nothing until I was in the ambulance. This was around 11am yesterday. They ran all sorts of rtests and came up with nothing. I hung in until this morning and by 10 am I was ready to be released, but it took yill 2pm to get that done.
I have done another round of picture taking and plan another one this evening.
I know that yesterday was literally almost a wash-out due to heavy rain. The murals are progressing nicely and everyone is praying for sunny weather for the next 2 days.
I'll get things uploaded?updated soon!!!

Just got back from round 5 of picture taking. The murals are really taking shape considering the weather everyone has faced.
The plan is that after tomorrow's first round of Pictures I'll start putting the slideshows together and uploading.
Tonight I am gonna take it easy.

I didn't see you and thought I would at the auction, but I had to leave Friday night for a commitment back home. So, that is what happened..I am glad you are on the mend, take really good care of yourself, and we will catch each other at another meet, Deb

Wow Dave. Take it easy buddy. Don't try to overdo it and only go at a pace that you feel comfortable with. Ambulance rides sure aren't the best way to travel.

Thank you for all the concern folks, but I am back among the living!!!
The best the doc's could come up with, after a dozen tests, was dehydration and low sodium and potassium. No heart, lung or brain problems. (I know, many would say ya can't have a problem with the brain if ya don't have one!!!)
Anyway, all is well now.
The murals are really coming along well after the rain delay on Wednesday.
We will soon be going out for the last round of pictures today and then again tomorrow morning.
The final round tomorrow might not get uploaded until we hit a motel somewhere on the way home.
It was a fun event!!! (except for a day and a half in the hospital. )

Si told me he experiencd the same "seizure" 30 years ago at the age of 65. You old fellers gotta learn to stop watching those "Adult" Movies back at the hotel.
Glad everything worked out OK Dave. I'd sure hate to miss out on that BBQ you promised me. BTW. I want to thank you and Barb for all the time spent in putting this together.

I have about a dozen final pics to add to the slideshows, but after a day on the road, I am feeling lazy!

Steve, I enjoy doing it. It is nice to meet up with folks even if momentarily.
Looking forward to next year in Arcola, IL. We'd do Canon City too but we'll be in Mexico by then.

I was wondering why I didn't get to see you, as long as you are OK and there is no hurry. Take extra time off for yourself. Bill

Being hit by Plymouth is better than being hit by a Plymouth. Of course, I wouldn't know since I've never been hit by a Plymouth, but I was hit by a Ford last year. It wasn't much fun, either.

Dave have them check for Diabetes too ok? One of my friends had a terrible seizure a year ago October. He started out with the exact same thing. Walking down the street and "woke up"in the ambulance. He takes great care of his disease but still had terrible seizure 13 years after being diagnosed. Ended up with brain damage he is still recovering from. Not trying to scare you but sometimes it is not something the doctors may have been thinking about. And its just some blood tests I believe. Sometimes insulin levels play strange tricks. Worth it for a small check on that type of thing.
