Delving into the neighbours yard!

As Movember is coming to a close I wanted to say that sometimes it isn't about the money you spend on cancer research... if you have cancer it is time to stop and smell the roses.
Cancer can be beaten with research... but it can also be deterred by a positive attitude. Dad has been my patient throughout all this ... he hasn't missed a treatment yet!... and I have learned that if you smile and wave you will get just as far and still have some peace of mind too!

No power in the shop shouldn't be a reasonable excuse! But I will do my best to let you know what he gets done! He usually only has a couple of good days between treatments... so I wouldn't expect it to go all that swiftly!
I will help where I can.. but I have learned that if he asks me to stick my finger under that block of wood... it's probably not a great idea... last time it took him a week to find a replacement wedge!
He has found some 2x10 material that will serve nicely as workbench tops and some other bits and pieces so I am sure that he will be tackling this as soon as he can!

Hey and thanks again for all the well wishes and support that he has received from all of you!
Till next time

I have included 2 options here as well... this one has text but the other one doesn't! I had a number of people who couldn't understand me very well as well as those who found the text annoying! So this should have it all covered!

But is otherwise the same video.
Well Dad has to do another round so I am here to let you know what is what again!
Hopefully this will be a non eventful round... I think it is the same 12 sessions again. Nothing to it!
My fingers and toes would be crossed... yeah well...

Where do you suppose they come up with these file names? I'm not sure I like this one! How Rude!
The cider was really good and there was lots of nice people to talk to! It's too bad this only happens once a year!
Thanks again to Santa and Mrs. Claus
and special thanks to Phil and Sheena for making it happen.
Go Shirley Delicious

This is the link to the second one ...

For those who didn't...
Dad's exuberance in producing pallet wood projects left me without anything to enter! So I've taken a pen that he made out of the same wood that he used for the center of the bat... and I'm going to see if I can't figure something out!
Thanks for watching
Cedric
Well I didn’t actually say that...
I wonder why?
Ah well the main thing is that Dad is still here!
Thanks for watching
Cedric
So now we just have to get Dad back to being himself again... and every thing will be good!
Thanks again for all the help
Cedric
Only a couple more weeks!
And then we get the old Dad back (I hope!)
Like I’ve said before...
I wish I had something to cross!
(Heck... I can’t even cross my eyes without help!)
So here’s hoping that some of you have at least a couple of somethings crossed!
Thanks for watching
Cedric
Must be time for a Happy Dance!
But I am only observing the fat... I mean the facts!
We will see what the latest is when the results come back...
I think he has a whole raft of Doctor appointments next week... so who knows!
I'll let you know... when I do!
I think he is doing pretty good, overall! He has the good days and bad... but even the bad ones... for some people would be good ones!
I only wish that I had fingers that I could cross for him!
Cedric
And he takes strength from all the comments that you leave... (sometimes he doesn't get around to answering them right away .. and I only have two fingers... so it can take a little patience... sometimes!)
Thanks for watching
Cedric
So when there is more to report (other than tomorrow he turns 60! Can you imagine that? I would have thought he should be taller... ) I will be back to fill you in!
Bye now
Cedric
Funny you know... I try and tell him that he shouldn't be out doing stuff like that... but he just doesn't listen! Oh well... he will spend the next couple of days afterwards... in his chair! Complaining about how much he hurts! I might have to find some corks for my ears!
Just a note here on the Marijuana cookies... they do an incredible job of cancelling out the nausea feelings and they work quickly. One cookie lasts for a few hours, depending on the size of the cookie... 2-4 hours I would say... and I think that is what happened to Dad... He had his cookie and then it came bedtime and he went... well the cookie wore off in the meantime ... so it might be a beneficial thing to set an alarm! Wake up and smell the cookies kind of thing! Dad says they don't make you stoned like you smoked it... just more of a calming soothing feeling... At least that is the way I was told... afraid that has no effect on my cedar system! Sort of goes in one pore and out the other!
To all those of you out there looking after someone with cancer...You are doing a tough job and it may not pay much.... but in the long run you get to know this person better than you ever would have otherwise. Now they may make it.... and they may not... but the thing is that they have found a companion in you that has made their journey that much easier!
Good Job!!!
I know I have found out all kinds of stuff about Dad! And you know.... I think he feels the same about me!
Thanks for watching

You know my Dad... he is Larry McCafferty over at the Tiny Trailer Workshop down at the corner of YouTube and Google+!
On Dad's Tiny Trailer channel there have been fragments of comments which when all pieced together make a whole story! I have done that piecing and put it here so that you will know what is going on with him!

In the forest, you never know who you will meet!
Maybe even me!
Cedric
I thought for sure that Kayak was going to sink that Fish boat! I suppose that would have taught him to watch where he was going ...
Ah well it was all In a da... BUG!!!
canon! Big noises...
Wanna play?

But I don't think that I have ever heard of a place that has so many cool trees in one spot... you wander around a forest and you will find one or two... here almost all of them were perfect... I had to climb them all!
I still have recurring dreams about those darn chickens though!
Climbing all those trees was hard work... I wonder what the ride home was like?
Thanks for watching
Cedric
Those people in the carriage were awfully nice but that horse of theirs was just too quick for me...I couldn't keep up!
Old uncle Bob doesn't get around as much as he used to... but he still gets the spotlight whenever he shows up! And his friends... I think that old Cougar was trying to pick me up!!
The Tarot lady was nice too... who knew that I had a Queen of Cups out there? I hope it is cups of ice cream! I know... Hunny Ice Cream!
I will have to see if Dad will bring me back here to the market again ... This was fun!
Thanks for watching
Cedric
I got to meet a little dog by the name of Newton... he isn't any bigger than the cats back home here.
I tried to get to the pears but they were just out of reach... it was only a couple of days later when one of my big cousins came through and cleaned the rest of the tree out completely!
It was nice to smell the outside air after all the sawdust in the shop...
We'll have to see where I can go next!
Thanks for watching
Cedric
