Good Morning COL. "Arriving Where You Desire" That is always the endgame....
As life is a never ending series of goals this one is perfectly to the point:
"Arriving at one goal is the starting point to another." — John Dewey
Always build on what you have, it gives you the satisfaction you crave when you see your accomplishments and still move forward....!
I have a super full day of woodworking in the shop making Hatches and a new custom dash out of cherry. There was a full set of new TeleFlex gauges in the $200 boat....!!!!! The hits just keep on coming.
Say My Good Mornings Please and have a fantastic day COL Mikel J. Burroughs.......
I almost forgot....When it comes to your desires, "Never Settle" .....
Because "Good Enough is Not Good Enough"
OK
***Now I can get to work....!
