Nice looking hair do. All swept back in flowing locks. Your comb it back by yelling at yourself in the mirror.

All I can say is...Joe looks pretty good for an old fart that has had his share of health issues!!!
AND he has a lot more hair than I do!
Keep on truckin' Joe!!!
BTW...All we have here at our place in Mexico is coconuts, and they are 20' up in the trees so I just wait for them to fall down and pray that I'm not under the palm when one decides to fall!!!
Tried growing veggies here, but since between the birds and the iguanas, it was a waste of time.

ours are recovering from the freeze we had in jan 2014!!!!! i had a 10 ft tall ruby red grapfruit, and a 8-9 ft tall navel orange tree totally destroyed of everything above ground. had to cut them back to the ground. i now have new growth from the root, 3-4 ft tall, 1" stalks.....but no idea if they will produce fruit. if not i have great root stock to "graft" to. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SzGdDqWJcFU these are the trees i lost after that freeze.

Joe..I am no expert on tropical fruit trees, but don't the commercial growers use water sprayers/sprinklers to protect their crops if a freeze is forecast?
Could you have done that in 2014?

no its what killed them.look at the video....the ice came 1st then the temps went down to 18-19, ice supposedly only gets to 30-31 degrees, when it freezes, not the case here. also the water they are spraying has a higher temp then the air.......this is what provides some protection......but once its ICE ON THE TREE......the damage is almost to bad.

After creating for 6 days the God of the Bible was so tired that he had to rest a day...after creating Joe I had to rest for a full 2 days...and damn it...I told he and Hennie not to eat the fruit from that tree...and there they go...nobody listens to me anymore...maybe I'll send a freeze down Pensacola way and kill their fruit trees.
