Hey, G, thanks for coming out for a beer Tuesday night with your having to leave so early Wednesday. Always great to see you my friend. Glad the trip and meetings are going well so far. Hang in there - the "survival" meals will be over soon. Good luck for a safe and prosperous finish to this one.

Dinner looks great, G. Now that the weekend is here, you can sleep in a little and catch up a bit.

Love the red watch. With the 'Dipper?

It is a very comfortable watch. Dots mark key movement points, truly a fun weekend Swatch.

One major advantage of travelling across Germany. You can cover a lot of Km very very fast when you want to.

Do they have those motorway speed bumps where you are driving, I could never get used to them when driving in MEX some years ago.
