  • Best Thing

    Everyone is good at something.  I personnally like to run math in my head.  I remember as a boy I'd go up and down the road behind our house just to count the times I did it.  I imagined I was getting money each time I did that and then I would multiply it.  When I travel, math is continually running through my mind. I caculate mph and many different things related to the mileage.  Years ago I had a friend that we could spend hours talking about math.  It's so logical and I love it.

    What are you good at?

  • Birds

    I've been watching the ducks fly back.  Thousands upon thousands of them flying in V formation.  How great it would be if one of those ducks had a minature camera on it's head, that could be viewed.  I look forward to when the Decorah eagles hatch (around the 20th of this month).  That will be captured on a web cam.

    I've thought of other things I'd love to watch via a web cam.
    New York Taxi Cab

    A lion in the jungle

    How about you -
    What would you like to view via a web cam?

  • YOU

    There is no one alive who is youer than you  - Dr Suess

    I was listening to a song this morning.  The question the song asked was: Do you like who you are?

    Well:  Do you like who you are?

  • Goal

    I'm suppose to have a life goal for my group on Saturday. (A bunch of us guys get together each week).  Besides my family being successful, I'm finding it difficult to come up with a goal.

    Do you have a ten year goal? What is it?

  • Taxes

    Yankton had another "opt-out" and it failed.  The school is working really hard at raising property taxes and the residents are saying, "No higher taxes". 

    Will you vote for any one that insists on raising taxes?

  • Phoenix

    I'm flying out to Phoenix this afternoon and driving my mother in law (Carol) and her sister (Arlene) back home.  May daughter flew out yesterday and was grounded in Denver because of high winds.  She should be flying into Phoenix any time now.  We're looking at being on the road for 23 hours. Carol went out to see Arlene and her husband.  While she was there Arlene's husband died. (I think he waited to leave so someone could take care of Arlene.)

  • Expecting

    I've been watching this eagle. (Called Decorah Eagle - Decorah, Iowa)  Actually the eagle in the picture is the papa eagle.  Moma eagle was laying on the eggs this morning to be replaced by the male eagle about an hour ago.  The last egg was laid on Monday. The first egg was on Feb 17th.  An eagle usually takes 35 days to hatch. So the baby eagles may arrive around my oldest daughter's birthday.  Wouldn't that be great if it was on the same day.
