He will be "in college" next friday.The dorms open up then and well will be up in Moscow, ID helping him move in.There are come orientation classes for both parents and students over that weekend we are going to go to.I just hope everything works out.I see no reason that they would not.It is just hard to let my son go.I know it must have been the same way for my mom.It is funny, all those years

I have been doing ok for myself lately. I should cross 200 Billion this week if I watch out and play carefully.I added a few links to friends I have made since I started playing.There is Mina and Streetdog.I came across this kind of neat thing the other day.It "tells" the value of your blog.Click on the picture of George down on the right side bar.My blog is not worth much since I don't have many

The Artic cold finally went away here in Idaho.The temp got to 40 today.All the snow is melted in my yard, except a few shady places and the big pile my sons made for a snow fort.Work at the site has been the same old slow grind.The one good thing was that our bonus finally came through.The bad thing was the gov't with held 40%.That is a big chunk of 10K.I went pricing new kitchen cabinets and

Well after "Black Friday 05" Blogshares has been alittle bit of a let down. So I have decided to take a different road. I will try to corner the market on a few ideas.Between that and raiding maybe I can build my wealth up and better my rank overall.We finally got the first real snow here in Idaho today.My sons are going snowboarding today.I plan to learn to snowboard this year.I ski, but want to

I have spent nearly a month on remodeling my bathroom.We have always wondered when our house was built.Come to find out when we pulled up the old tub there was a date stamped on the bottom.5-26-27, we can only assume that was when the tub was manufactured.So 1927 or 1928 must be when the house was built.That cast iron tub was not a drop in.The house was built around it.I hope to have all the tile

It has been a while since I posted here. I have now decided that I need to keep my mind active. This is the place I can bitch and not really have to listen to anybody's comments back.A friend once taught me the "Rule of Two".Basicly here is how the rule goes.You should never have a conversation in a group with more than two people on the subjects of Religon, Sex or politics.

Well we went riding on sunday. It might be that last good day, weather wise, for this year. Next weekend starts hunting season so the motorcycles will be staing in the garage. My youngest son decided that he would roost some mud at me. we were nearing the end of our ride. In the process he spun out and his bike landed on him. I got a cut about 4 inches wide and about 1/2 inch deep. He got it

I just got back from 4 days off. They were busy. Home made Tomato sauce is a lenghty process. I made some from the Roms in my garden. It does taste great. We went motorcycle riding yesterday. Logged 72 miles all total . I was beat afterwards. I almost lost one son. He took a power slide around a curve and the shot off the embankment. Flew about 20 yards through trees. Luckily only a bruised hand

Well I snowed today. Not down where I live but in the mountains above. We did get a lot of rain at the house. I hope it does not freeze. I have tomatoes in the garden still. I have weds off so plan to pick and can sauce then. Still real slow here at work. Doing a little work on quals the a lot of surfing the net. New roof seema to be holding up to the rain so far.

I really don't know why I even started this. Does anyone else see it? Does anyone else care? Or is this just a place to vent. Right now I really don't care I am going to try and keep it going for a while this time. I went riding yesterday. I rode my XR400 32 miles in the mountains around Fall Creek. That is right outside of Swan Valley, ID. We had a lot of fun. No crashes this time. I finally

Here I am at work. We made some ambitious plans for today. We were suppose to make a few entries to further along the plant start-up. I got in and no other department could support. Parts are not available. Machinist can't make parts because ove the weekend they moved their shop and have no power in new room. So here I sit surfing again. Making plans to go hunting next month.

Well I was just surfing and ran across "Blogs". I remembered I signed up for one a while back. It had kind of skipped my mind. I looked it up. It has been right at a year since I started this thing and have not made a post since. A lot of things have changed since then. I am no longer at the building supply store. I now work for a Nuclear waste disposal plant. The basic process is to take old

Well I am new at this. But we all have to start somewhere. I have been out of the Navy for little over a month now. I do miss it some but not that much. I miss my friends. Now that I have moved to another state I haven't made a lot of new friends. I have gotten a job at a building supply store, doing deliveries. I am also doing a little handyman work on the side. Right now I am in a Hunter
