The art of re-purpose is in the eye of the beholder!!

Passive solar H20 heater and panel hook up

Helping Dad repair a passive solar water heater and hooking up recently added solar panels. There were a few problems. However with the help of the neighbor, it was figured out.

Another Year

Well another year has gone by for me. Looking forward to starting a new life in retirement the end of this month. It has suddenly become more real, that I'll really miss my family when I move to Costa Rica. Hopefully I can get more of them set up with Skype before I leave. I'll be observing different flora and fauna, will miss the blue jays dive bombing the squirrels in the back yard, and the simple bike ride to work every day waving to neighbors on the ride.

Health Care

Watched Moyor's Journal last night on PBS. While I don't agree with all that was said, the consensus was that doing nothing would be worse than keeping the status quo. Now what do we do?

Freedom

Yes, I do have a certain amount of freedom. So much happened in my family yesterday and I was at work. While I do have some regretts, I also know that I'm making sacrifices for my future freedom. This is a crucial element of the promotion of freedom, SACRIFICE!!!

A New Grandson

On April 23, 2009 I enjoyed experiencing the birth of Haile pronounced (Eye-lee) my first grandchild. I waited at the Hospital approximately four hours. The update came that she would start to push, and at 4:44 am I heard the cry of Haile from the hall. What a moment ahh!!!

Politics

What in the H is going on in this country? We have the third in line for the President under fire for accusing the CIA of misleading congress. I call for a national strike, to boot them out, all of them.
