   Just heard from Bob Osburn. He's doing okay and wishes he could see to read the forum but it's too hard. Hopes everybody is well. He has spent some time in the hospital to take care of a few things  but is home and up and about.

Yes, indeed, his posts were always fun and informative.

I hope he's still able to work on his railroad. That would be tough to give up.

  I think the hardest thing for him is getting used to his disability. He loves to tinker and that has been taken away from him. I've suggested software to read and speak words like what Dragon Naturally Speaking has. It would be a boon to him if he could get it for his computer. That would help him tremendously.
