A New Day (And Year) Has Come
Memorial Day Okay, so these were taken the day before Memorial day, but the sun and wind were cooperating! So in not breaking what’s become tradition, it’s been a few weeks since my last rambling. Which makes this post the first of its kind in the new year. Nearly at the end of January, that…

Happy New Year!
Studying She really does like to figure out how things work and how to help out… So Christmas of 2008 has come and gone, and all is well. It was another good Christmas festivus, although things tend to get so busy and crazy in the days and weeks leading up to the holiday. But at…

And Along Comes Christmas!
Annoyance I know I was being an annoyance to him, but I was just returning the favor. So I’ve been really horrible. The last post was the day before halloween?!?! Where did the month of November (and nearly half of December) go? These are important questions. I want my month back! In all honesty, I…

Happy Halloween!
Pumpkin Carvings So here are the two pumpkins we got from Amy (thanks!), in the dark. Kirstin’s is on the left (she’s quite an artist), and mine is on the right. In all actuality, I carved them both, and the team of Beth and Kirstin cleaned up the seeds and innards). So it’s been a…

A Few Weeks!
The UMM Biomass Gasification Facility A few images I took of the south end of the new building on October 3, 2008, the date of its official dedication. So okay, it’s been a few weeks since my last post; my apologies for that. Things have once again been busy, and when I’ve had a few…

Another Week Passes
Relaxed Felix was hanging out on the toy box just before Beth and I went to bed. As another week draws to a close, I’m reminded of the many things that I never seem to get accomplished on my never-ending list of things to do. Now if that’s not an overly negative way to start…

An Epic Journey
Group Picture So I’ve been horrible at this as of late, but I have a really good reason. Honestly. We were on an epic journey through the mid-south. For roughly twelve days, we were away from home and made our way through twelve states (if you include Minnesota, parts of which I’d not seen or…

Forgotten, But Not Gone
Forgotten, But Not Gone This old well pump is about the only visible remnant of the house that once used to sit adjacent to it. Okay, so this title really reflects my state of mind when it comes to writing here as of late. My apologies to the flocks of visitors. 🙂 Really. I’m serious…

Do We Have To?
Do We Have To?Sylvie was looking around, almost as if asking if she had to leave… Eesh, that’s almost been my own mental note of writing as of late. It’s now been three-and-a-half weeks since the last rambling, and that’s really not saying much. Life has been busy as of late. It seems always as…

Happy Forthcoming Independence Day!
Watching The Crowd Koshka was watching all of us walk around in the yard after giving her a little bit of attention. As it’s unlikely I’ll get around to posting anything before Friday’s holiday, I’ll just say it now. 🙂 Happy Independence Day! I had great intentions tonight to write something complex and insightful, but…
