Just a great day with Good friends

[Clean County]

Its great to get away and just relax with some good friends. Next year I may have a special friend join me here and if I do I'll post it right here. Carlos knows who that may be.....heck maybe it will be Carlos and his PWN staff

The first picture is of me and some of my closest friends. Then me and Kathy and last but not least a guy who I remembered well when he was the president of my larger Union. I use to talk to him back then. Since then he has rose all the way up to the Chief in one of the richest area's on Long Island and since retired and now is doing well in a different line of work for many years.... and me... Still stuck in the mud never talking any test for advancement because I like my life the way it is and what is that?? By letting the bosses be bosses, The guys be themselves and if I can do anything I do it for them because I figured what works best for me and that doing what I'm doing...... and what is that... I haven't figured it out yet

Hey John...nice looking pics you got there. You said that you weren't going to tell anyone about the new house you bought (Pic #2). Speaking of friends, Jake Clark -Armstrong Clark Wood Stain , who I do consider a good friend of mine once told me that a friend will bail you out of jail but a good friend will be sitting next to you in the jail cell saying, "dang that was fun".

Anyway, it is good to have friends and people that you can count on.

Road trip to NY? Just say the word John!!

Speaking of Jake...here he is helping me celebrate my birthday last year in Marin County!

Whoa John !! some how I pictured you with hair down to your A** HAHA

Well it sure is nice to see that you are still spraying that good H20 !!

I'm going back to the H20 spraying myself soon .... Right now I'm recoverying from a Auto crash .... My foster son was driving and I was a rear passenger... he pulled out and I guess he didnt see that Jeep booking down the hill and we hit head on... It has been a month and a long month ! My right leg tib/fib broke and had to have rod pounded in ... The pain is one thing but bring bored is worse than the pain. well sometimes !! ...My Wife told me yesterday on our 27th annerversery she wanted to trade me in for a moped !

God speed to you Dan!!!

 

[Dan S]

Thanks ! ! ! ! !

 

[Clean County]

Danny boy---Wow that sucks.... maybe considering the type of accident you got into... your lucky to be alive. Godspeed on your recovery and its good to see you back here once in awhile. I'm still up to my wacky ways but realizing how fast my life is zipping by I have to admit it was fun debating and blogging with guys like your self years ago so much more then because this way to communicate was so much newer and refreshing then.

Pop on here when ever you just want to shoot the shizz... and I'll give you this... I was a bit over kill back then because of all the excitement I had over many things within this industry..... but today I hope I am a bit more wiser and not to the point of over kill like I was back then.

Catch up with you soon.
Get better.

Probably not... but then again they tell me to link Facebook & Twitter to my website Clean County Powerwashing - Serving Long Island - NY - NJ - PA - CT to get more business and I just can't keep up with all of that so I don't do that. Its a young mans world now Dan and I'm starting to slow up with all the techno stuff and even though we have a good customer base and I spend to advertise etc.. The young guns are all around me and there internet savy as heck and there prices are embarrasingly low but they can do there own websites and stuff where I pay for mine because I'm clueless when it comes to that.

Now these young guns have there websites talk to you etc etc... Not to sound like to much of a Geezer... I like the old days better so that tells me my ways are probably outdated..... Hey your a fellow Geezer to.. Don't you have grandkids already??? I've been a Grand Uncle for 7 yrs now..... now thats scary

 

[Dan S]

Well John as a matter of fact >> My middle son will be a daddy in a month er so and my oldest will be a daddy in bout 6 months ... So I reakon I be that ole grand-pa !! .... I just turned 47 bout time they worked their magic ! I'm not in a hurry for my youngest of 21 to be a daddy yet ... that can wait a few years !

I just cant wait untill I get back to walking again... Have `ya ever watched the hour hand on a clock move ?

Dan, I'm fairly new here, but one thing I've learned is that there is a great deal to be learned from you more seasoned veterans like yourself. I can somewhat relate in a very minute way to your situation...minutely mind you. I had reconstructive shoulder surgery in March of this year, and it was 2 months before I could get my elbow 90 degress in relation to my torso. In no way was I restricted as severly as you, but I did share in the urge to become mobile again. I wish you a speedy recovery and a prosperous future my friend!!

Yup you confirmed it...THAT SUCKS!!!! Hey Dan do you remember back in the days or our PWNA debates and how long some of them went? Stupid question because how could we forget. If you go to there website The PWNA - The Power Washers of North America that coming soon story is from my business. I'm not as loaded as I use to be because of some bad investment etc. so I can't offer to pay for you to be there like I probably did back then just to show you something that maybe you weren't seeing or I was not explaining correctly.

This time if your down in Nashville around the PWNA date let me know cause I'm going down there with some very special people and if you catch me there I'll introduce to you some history....... Two mags now have my story and its a winner and its for all powerwashers and others in this industry. My clock is ticking so I'm going for it... I just need to get one more card and I'll have the royal straight flush and its for...you guys and gals in this industry. Its been a long and winding road(Got to love those Beetle lyrics) and that road I found has headed right for the pot of Gold...... You'll know soon enough.
