Yeah, not what I wanted to hear, but what I dreaded eventually.

Sad, and don't have much to really say here....but a lot to pray about....
A couple of years ago I built the clock below for Bob - it's based on a design from Isaac Young, a Shaker who built the original in 1840....since the time it was ready, Bob and I haven't been able to get together in person....enough about that old clock.
Isaac Young wrote on all his clocks:
O Time! How swift the solemn day rolls on
When from these mortal scenes we shall be gone!!

Beautiful, Jim - the sentiment and the clock. Isaac Young was a smart man. ____________________

Holding Bob, Denise and Cami close to my heart. My prayers continue.
I love you, my brother. You will always shine bright. I think about you every day... and I smile! On this Thanksgiving, I praise God for bringing such a wonderful friend into my life.
Dweller On The Threshold
Van Morrison
I'm a dweller on the threshold
And I'm waiting at the door
And I'm standing in the darkness
I don't want to wait no more
I have seen without perceiving
I have been another man
Let me pierce the realm of glamour
So I know just what I am
I'm a dweller on the threshold
And I'm waiting at the door
And I'm standing in the darkness
I don't want to wait no more
Feel the angel of the present
In the mighty crystal fire
Lift me up consume my darkness
Let me travel even higher
I'm a dweller on the threshold
As I cross the burning ground
Let me go down to the water
Watch the great illusion drown
I'm a dweller on the threshold
And I'm waiting at the door
And I'm standing in the darkness
I don't want to wait no more
I'm gonna turn and face the music
The music of the spheres
Lift me up consume my darkness
When the midnight disappears
I will walk out of the darkness
And I'll walk into the light
And I'll sing the song of ages
And the dawn will end the night
I'm a dweller on the threshold
And I'm waiting at the door
And I'm standing in the darkness
I don't want to wait no more
I'm a dweller on the threshold
And I cross some burning ground
And I'll go down to the water
Let the great illusion drown
I'm a dweller on the threshold
And I'm waiting at the door
And I'm standing in the darkness
I don't want to wait no more
I'm a dweller on the threshold
Dweller on the threshold
I'm a dweller on the threshold
I'm a dweller on the threshold

Amen, Libby.
I had something written out but, I just can't post it at this time.
Jim, your clock is beautiful. And the sentiment behind it is even more so.
Bob, I love you. I am praying hard for you and the girls. Peace be with you my brother.

The clock made by Jim -- the words posted by Libby -- the love & friendship in this thread...
There's only one thing in this life I'm certain of
The only true treasure in this life, is love

I just sent him some DTB video and a Fogerty show from this past summer in PA.
I'll never be able to listen to the Eagles without thinking he wouldn't approve.

On this Thanksgiving, I'm thankful for having my life graced with Bob. I love you.
Have You Ever Seen The Rain?
(J.C. Fogerty)
Someone told me long ago
There's a calm before the storm
I know
It's been coming for some time
When it's over so they say
It'll rain on a sunny day
I know
Shining down like water
I wanna know
Have you ever seen the rain?
I wanna know
Have you ever seen the rain?
Coming down on a sunny day
Yesterday and days before
Sun is cold and rain is hard
I know
It's been that way for all my time
Till forever on it goes
Through the circle fast and slow
I know
And it can't stop I wonder
I wanna know
Have you ever seen the rain?
I wanna know
Have you ever seen the rain?
I wanna know
Have you ever seen the rain?
I wanna know
Have you ever seen the rain? ____________________

Lee Roy posted this on his website....I wanted to share his Thanksgiving message with Bobo....
"A Thanksgiving Message from Lee Roy
11/22/07
Thanksgiving:
A Holiday, (derived from... Holy Day) where folks gather North and South, East and West to celebrate the union of the human spirit. It is said in these United States that settlers and Native Americans alike threw down their muskets, bows, and arrows to come together and give thanks for the bounty that the hard year of toil and struggle had blessed them with.
As this writer sees it, not much has changed. Once a year, we stop and lay waste to all that encumbers us. We show tolerance, forgiveness and gratitude to one another, and often, (most importantly), to ourselves. We take a moment to reflect and recall all that we have to say grace over; to put aside petty differences and focus on what really matters most. This year, what did I do completely unselfishly for my Brother and Sister, my Mother and Father, my Children, Friends - and most importantly, my constant Companion who has my back every single day? Was it... Is it enough?
Whether it is or is not , we do have the hope of tomorrow. To say "Thanks" to one another more. To "Give" each other... a little bit more. It is not a weakness to rely on one another for strength, any more than it is for them to receive strength from us in return. That, dear reader, is a Holy Day.
Happy Thanksgiving,
Lee Roy Parnell "
