Hmmmmmm, Keira Barber.....not too bad.
Congratulations John. Yeah, I do think I am more at the grandpa age....as hard as that is for me to grasp at times. Also, most women I may date are not likely to be too keen on an infant that is mine and not a grandchild. Oh well. Not the issue it was at one time. <g>

Wow, Chris. You do live an interesting live!
Your son may have a ready made mate - my grandaughter, Keira, was born 9/29.

Huh? Where does that come from? I've always thought of the RD1B from
Real World Solutions as the most reliable part of my installation and
the least likely to break. I know of zero airborne failures of RWS
redrives, and one ground failure that was quickly rectified.
