Today, I saw my husband for the last time until he returns home from the war in Afghanistan. Please, take some time today to appreciate the man or woman in your life. It is too easy to take someone for   more...granted, and trust me, you don't want to know how it feels to be without them. I hope you all had a happy thanksgiving! This song is for my husband, but I hope you all can take something away from it. Coz, I'm thankful for you every day!  less

I am leaving in a few days to visit my sister in Iowa, I talk about her job in computers. A shoutout to my many friends who sent happy birthday wishes to Sammy. Plus some other random stuff.

I show a steam powered plank saw mill.

I stop by Galena on the way to Iowa

Gustav over Illinois heading toward Michigan.

End of my Mississippi river ride that I forgot to upload....the ending will give Fudmottin a boner for sure.

Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about the things that matter.

Martin Luther King Jr.

I happened to be near Indianapolis for my brother's graduation and made it to some of the qualifying runs including some of Danica's excellent early runs.

Arar’s acceptance speech at the Letelier-Moffitt Human Rights Awards in Washington DC. Maher Arar was unable to attend because he remains on the U.S. no-fly list.

Do you think the torture has stopped? Think again. Detaining children under the age of 18 is a war crime under the laws in the Geneva Convention. A law that was approved in 2003 under the Bush administration.

Pothole hunting, it does get (a little) entertaining as it goes on.

"The Gates of Istar" by David Hart
The Gates of Istar
Now do the mountains wiggle
and giddily squirm

while solemnly sauntering
towards
A great fuming
cantankerous ocean

Sunrise... the Gate of Istar.
  more...
A blissful moon and
jolly bouncing stars

tango tersely

under
a scintillating
prickly shower of

chartreuse

Sun beams
Peace
and fervent love
blithely abound.

Now,
at the noble Gate of Ishtar.

This is a special tribute to Leroy Hangsleben which I co-produced with his wife Judy and in so doing was able to learn more about each of them even though we have not met each other personally. Thank   more...you for the experience Judy and may God continue to Bless your brave husband.
