GROUND PREDICTIONS

WOW!  The weather has been really nice, maybe that groundhog is on to something.  I'm beginning to see signs of my yard.  It's getting kind of sloppy though.  We can't let Calvin out in the back yard so he get's to run down the front sidewalk to his favorite firehydrant, he loves that.  Here is a picture that I took yesterday  to show how nice the weather has been..

She needs to work on those tan lines

and here is a pic I took just twenty-four hours later..

Clearly not enough sun screen

A warning to my brother in Florida, you can see what too much sun can do.  Take an umbrella for shade.

This week-end I was working on a side job for some friends, tileing a kitchen back splash.  Trying to earn some extra cash to pay for Canyon's driver's ed.  They wanted a little extra color so we added a few glass tiles.  I took a pic so you could see.

somebody call better homes and gardens

I finished grouting today after church.  Speaking of church, today was our day to work in the Point Cafe.  Robyn and I volunteer one Sunday a month.  We enjoy serving.

The A-Team

We arrive between 7:15 and 7:30 (although Robyn made us a little late today, a hair thing) and prepare a feast for the hungry throng.

Where's Mr. T?

I love it when a plan comes together

This nice weather brings the people out, and the animals.  Driving home Saturday I had to stop and grab a quick photo of the herd of deer by the road.  Really the picture dosen't do it justice because I couldn't get them all in one pic.

This is where Santa's deer vacation

There had to be over a hundred deer in that field.  I did see one big buck, missing one antler, but my picture was blurry.

OK.  I guess I can't put it off any longer.  In my last post I said if the weather was nice I would put a picture of me wearing a speedo on here.  I am a man of my word.  I just want to say that if you are eating right now, you may want to look away.  So, with out further ado..

I shoulda been a plumber

I tried to warn you.  Dang, now Robyn is going to make me work out again.

I don't want to leave you with that image so as the sun sets on another week in my sleepy little community, I am headed for some shut eye.  Here is a picture of a sunset over Waukee, you can see my church on the right with the red roof.  My house is left of the grain elevator, just about where the sun is.

Is this heaven?  No, it's Iowa

Peace
