Beans and other exciting things!

07/03/2008 8:17 A GMT-08
When I was a child, we ate beans three or four times a week.  I loved my mother’s beans! Now, my mother was anything but a gourmet cook. But what she cooked, she cooked good, and her beans were gooooooood. But she could never quite tell anyone

Turnkey business for sale…

07/01/2008 10:17 A GMT-08
You know how sometimes you think to yourself - I’d sure like to just have my own business, one that I know there’s a real demand for that will keep the roof over our heads, as well as provide a service to my community? I just can’t

Happy Anniversary Honey!Original Entry

Ahhh….California

06/26/2008 9:17 A GMT-08
It’s Thursday - and it seemed like a nice excuse to post a funny.  I got this as an e-mail, don’t know who wrote it, but it brought a smile, so perhaps you’ll enjoy it too. You know you’re in California if: 1. Your coworke

Anniversary Week begins!

06/23/2008 1:47 P GMT-08
Saturday is our 5th wedding anniversary.  So, as kind of a celebration effort, I decided to string up the cards we have received already.  Well, that and I have done some rearranging/decorating today.  It was one of those times where you think - I kn

Weekend Wrap-Up

06/23/2008 1:17 A GMT-08
It’s been a hot weekend.  And, apparently fire season is upon us, because today was a smoky day.  We reportedly had some fires started by lightening strikes.  No rain on us, just hot and kind of got a little muggy for a while yesterday - which

Our Family Heritage and a Legend or two…

06/17/2008 10:47 A GMT-08
Like a lot of boys growing up in the 60’s, I was fascinated with the stories of the American “Old West.” You know, Cowboys and Indians. I was riveted by stories of rugged cowboys, and yet at the same time appalled at how the “Indians” had been slaugh

Around the yard…

06/16/2008 2:17 P GMT-08
This guy (click “Read more” for his picture - and all pics will “embiggen” if you click on them) hangs out right underneath the faucet that I use to water the lawn with. I have never been a real fan of lizards, but the little

Drink up!

06/14/2008 4:17 P GMT-08
First thing in the mornings, I go out to the yard to refill hummingbird feeders, and give the potted plants a drink and possibly set the sprinkler to go on a dry spot in the lawn. This morning was the same routine. I keep the watering can full becau

Not bad for the 30s

06/12/2008 9:47 A GMT-08
One of those “burning questions” of our time: How do you rate as a husband or wife of the 1930s? ….what else was there to do but make it an internet quiz? Here are our results (for a good laugh!): 71 As a 1930s wife, I am S

Warming up

06/10/2008 6:47 A GMT-08
June is finally beginning to remind us that it’s almost summer. This week has been in the 90s and it looks like it’s about to get even hotter as the week progresses. Our weekend in the Bay area was great. The days were beautiful and of

Packing for the convention…

06/05/2008 11:47 A GMT-08
Remember when packing for a convention didn’t require quite so many cords? We’re headed off for our convention this weekend. I feel a little bit concerned over the hummingbirds. They’ve come to expect full feeders here, so of cour

Best of the Best - jammin!

Ray Charles, Jerry Lee Lewis Uploaded by Hanvak Have you ever wondered what it would sound like if you had Rod Stewart, Ron Woods and Carl Perkins playing backup for Fats Domino, Jerry Lee Lewis and Ray Charles? Watch THAT band (directed by Paul Sch

Mirror mirror...

06/01/2008 5:14 A GMT-08
I set up this blog to "mirror" the new one while we're in the process of moving to a new one.  That's some kind of technical term for - if we write a post on our new blog, some or all of that post will show up here, so if some

May wrap up.

05/31/2008 9:47 P GMT-08
What a beautiful day.  We had warm sunshine, good company, and even an Americano from Starbucks thrown in there for good measure.  After service we came home to get some work done.  We’d had a busy week prior, and I just didn’t get all of

A nice day to read a book.

05/27/2008 10:41 A GMT-08
I use to be quite the reader. I enjoyed biographies, historical novels, mysteries, and westerns. Not just any westerns, mind you - the classics - like Zane Grey and Louis L'Amour (this link takes you to an audiobook) books. Certainly Mr. L'Am

Long weekend...

05/25/2008 9:48 A GMT-08
As it turned out, we ended up with rain this weekend.  Definitely welcome after that week of intense heat.  It's been a light rain, and not really much to measure.  We went in service in it, and really didn't even need umbrella

Summer, pre-season...

05/17/2008 7:15 P GMT-08
I guess we must be in "preseason" for Summer.  It is in the 100s this week.  I call this (less than stellar photo) "potpourri on the hoof." The poor rose bush had finally gotten to the point of blooming, and then the ho

Making the grade...or not...

05/02/2008 5:06 A GMT-08
Have you ever noticed how after the NFL Draft we have the sports writers "grading" the draft? What they seem to do is decide what teams "shoulda-woulda-coulda " done, and then base their whole grade on whether the teams did that..

Some people's sense of humor...

05/01/2008 8:15 A GMT-08
So, remember this post?  The part where it isn't safe to leave some kinds of cookies unattended in the pantry?  Yeah.  Well...it seems the lad finds it amusing to bring home two packages of cookies, set them in the pantry, and leav

After the first day of the draft ...

04/27/2008 5:02 A GMT-08
Well, I got my wish. Different choices than I had in mind, but a running back with big play potential first pick, a corner back 2nd pick who looked really good on the films ... and as a bonus, the third pick a big tight end. The Cowboys did good. I t

The NFL Draft starts today

04/26/2008 1:04 P GMT-08
Any educated guesses as to who goes where?  We once got a good one in the 10th round ... so maybe this isn't as dismal as it appears on the surface.  I will see if I can twist Michael's arm into writing his thoughts/observations on

Why Sometimes Rainy Days and Mondays are not so bad after all.

04/25/2008 10:46 A GMT-08
Perhaps you have to be "old" like we are or a "retro" Carpenters fan to get the reference in that title.  It's a song lyric.  "It seemes like rainy days and Mondays always get me down".  The Monday re
