For me personally, the year has been a bit of a rollercoaster! I missed a lot of events due to bad timing, bad weather or both! It seems as I didn't get very far this year except back and forth to work and to Charlotte for the 50th. The year certainly has flown by!

With that being said, there is definitely more to look forward to in 2015!
A new house!
A new business!
Yard work!
House work!
Lawn mowing!!
Weeding!
Gardening!

PHEW!! is it 2016 yet??

So very thankful for the challenges and life experiences this past year, for all of the friends and family around me and the genuine joy they bring me! Hope to see all of you, soon as soon can be!

HERE'S TO A BRIGHT AND WONDERFUL 2015!!!

Another notable death was Truett Cathey, founder of Chik Fil-A. A great humanitarian with rock solid values.

Clark, this crowd works for beer and burgers. Maybe you need to schedule a GTG at the new place. LOL.

Don't know about the whole rock solid values, he still had some archaic views on some topics. Great food though.

I could see how many today would share your view Dan, but I think his belief in God, the family unit, hard work and at least a day off for rest to be pretty important.

I will agree, definitely good food and some of the most polite workers you will find. No accident.

What was archaic? Seems to me his values and beliefs are shared by millions? Was he too conservative for you?

I wouldn't say that, in this day and age the whole homophobia and gay bashing is out dated. Time to move on, that's my biggest problem.

Like Alan said the family values and everything are great. Can't complain about that he did always take care of his employees.
