<div>Wow, has it been five years already? I miss him as well, especially the stories. I will certainly drink a toast to his memory this evening. With it being -7F outside right now and 20 mph and associated wind chill, it is something Joe would have appreciated. I do recall a story telling contest that Joe would initiate, giving three random ideas to work into a story. Might be something for the list to tackle over the next week.</div>

<div>Today marks the 5<sup>th</sup> anniversary of Joe’s passing. I think I mentioned before that I put a forever reminder in my calendar to remind me of him and know how long it had been. At the time I did it as a way to not forget him as more time passed. Funny thing is to this point that has not been an issue, as I think of him often. There are more than a few what would Joe do moments in my head. Then of course having a memento of something from my past (long before I met Joe) that I got from Joe is prominently displayed in my shop. So I get a reminder of two great people that I have known in my life every time I am in my shop.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Lets all raise a toast to Joe today and wonder what kind of craziness he would have entertained us with. </div>
