We spent Friday night through Sunday in the desert near Cuddeback Dry Lake where parts of Hidalgo were filmed. We hid 6 eggs with $5 each and 40 eggs with $1 each in the desert bushes. Pretty lame for a 15, 17 and 19 year-old but we miss having little kids. The weather was gorgeous and perfect. Warm during the day with cool nights. Maybe I'll post a few pics tomorrow.

No, some people just procrastinate. It doesn't matter whether they owe or expect a refund, they just can't get their act together. You'd be surprised how many people wait until the last minute. We try to do the best possible job for everyone, but you have to know that the people who come in earlier get the most attention. Its not right, and I don't like it, but it just works that way. Always see your accountant or tax preparer early.

'morning

I hope everyone had a nice Easter. We had the whole family over for breakfast, played some games, watched the Cubs win and went to dinner at a GREAT german restaurant. My brother-in-law and I had what has to be the best beer we've ever had: Weihenstephan from Bavaria. The brewery was founded in 1040 and has been in continuous operation since. I'm not much of a beer drinker, but this stuff rocks!!! It was like drinking a malted, it was so rich and creamy, with no bitterness at all. So good we each had a full liter and then some.

Yummm!!!

TC -- sounds like you had a great Easter!!! And, a big VINTAGE hello to everyone else as well!!! Ours was quiet -- delivered Easter baskets to the grandkids on Saturday (so their parents would get to deal with the upset tummies and sugar highs on Sunday while we were safe at home ). Then had lunch with our youngest yesterday after church -- all in all, a great weekend.

My mom is scheduled for a third back surgery on May 3rd to remove hardware put in to stabilize her back in the second surgery last year. I don't expect it to relieve her pain much - but it is better to not have it in there if it's no longer needed.
I'm sorry to hear about your Mom, Deb. I hope she is somehow able to find some relief.
