During these challenging times we live in, and in the spirit of the season, it's good to reflect on the opportunities we have to make a difference in the lives of people around us. I attended a meeting this past week for a candidate running for the Senate. Prior to the candidate taking the floor it was brought to the attention of all in attendance, about 65 people, that one of the associates of

I was reminded of an incident in the last week of a conversation I had with a co-worker a few years ago and the opportunity that followed. This happened when I was working as a corrections monitor in a work release facility for a Non profit corrections agency.A co-worker that I had a lot of respect for because of her Spiritual faith and encouragement to others, came to me one day in my office and

Here's a few slides from our weekend.

Got back from a Tremendous weekend at Camp Bighorn, an adventure camp near Plains, Montana. Levi and I went up for a work weekend to prepare the grounds and facilities for the summer camps. It was a weekend of hard work, meeting new friends, great food, with very comfortable accomodations. We came back with a renewed mind, spiritual rejuvenation and physically wornout. Met some great people from

One of the things that signal the coming of Summer are the sugar ants. I have a small colony of sugar Ants that I allow to exist off one corner of my back patio. I control the size of the colony by the use of inhumane measures, but I never irradicate them completely. I enjoy watching them. They come out in the early morning and evening. At this early stage of the season they are hatching,

Just when I think that All is lost in our country and there is no HOPE, I run across an article or information that renews a sense of HOPE.

Life Changes the Man, Time Changes EverythingCould be a good title for a book...or a song..."Life has a way of happening", has been a popular saying in most circles. There are several variations on this theme. Many words have been written over time about Life, Change, and Time. Many more words have been spoken on the topics. And probably many more thoughts were provoked because of them. Many

It's been awhile since my last serious post of original thought. I have been totally consumed with watching with horror the polical gaming that is going on in our nations capital. I have been studying the financial markets and trying to make sense of all the Non-sense. I have been anxiously waiting and watching for an opposition party leader to emerge, to no avail.

I find these original documents always very interesting and often times enlightening. It is too bad the media doesn't encourage humbleness and prayer, acknowledgement of Gods blessings. Instead chooses too encourage greed and coveting of material possessions. Our founding fathers knew what it meant to endure hardship, and it didn't have anything to do with 401k's.

This last week was a very busy week at work. We reached a new level of business. At the beginning of the week we had over 100 pieces of equipment that needed to be cleaned and tested. Our average prior was in the 20's. Our shop and several of the hospitals are in a transition mode. We lost some business and picked up new business. The hospitals are making more of a demand for other types of

This may seem a bit crude or vulgar to some, but I think it really sums up the way I feel with all the CRAP the media and politicians are feeding us these days.

Received notification of a video on my Myspace from one of my sons friends in Iraq. Gary is in the Marines and is doing his second tour in Iraq. Our family is concerned for him and communicate with him regularly. We send care packages and letters weekly. We are always thankful to hear any news, especially when he indicates he is so bored. He made a video of how he spent some of his down time.

This link is to a sermon given by Jim Wallis, someone I've recently been reading about and reading his book, "God's Politics. This sermon is about 35 min long. I needed to hear this encouragement, inspiriation and motivating words. Please consider setting aside 35 min and listening to this. I don't think you will be disappointed.http://www.cor.org/worship-sermons/sermons/show/sermons/

I love dreams. I have dreams most every night. I have learned to engage during my dreams and I like to see where it may take me.During my adolescent years at home my older sister would share her dreams with us kids as we were doing chores around the house. Most memorably were the times we were snapping beans and podding peas. It helped pass the time, and when you have 30 gallons of peas or beans

Just wanted to capture and share my excitement and enjoyment of watching one of the most exciting election debates of 2008.Biden vs. PalinI was very happy to see Governor Palin with her game face on and all business. She seemed confident and eager right out of the corner. There was no indication of hesitation or indecision. She welcomed each attack and anticipated each move. She moved in quickly

O.K. I was going to say something about the "Bailout", but my Rep. Cathy Mcmorris-Rodgers http://mcmorris.house.gov/ took care of that for me. I sent her a nice thank you note and some encouragement. Hope everyone is doing the same or similar during this time of historical importance.That's all I have to say about that. Hear's some pics. Jocelyn went to the Cheney Homecoming with Cody Hancock (

Jocelyn Pyper: Age 17Writes - MySpace.com: Read BulletinLet me explain that she has been listening to some of her Dad's rantings which have probably had a very large influence. But what impressed me most is, she is asking a final question, "What do you think of it all???"

Today is a day of mourning for me. I've come to the realization and acceptance that the United States of America has become immersed in the Socialized Global society. Our government has taken control of our banking system, they have sold off bits and pieces of private land to foreign governments, we have agreed to Global oversight in the operation of our businesses and our government, our ports

It's been a while since I last posted a Blog. I just couldn't decide what to blog about, what thoughts or feelings to release. I think I just wanted to keep everything inside. Or maybe just the overwhelming amount of information and occurances needed to simmer. The one reason I have finally brought myself to blog something is because of my older Sis. As I was reading her Blog I could really

Today is Father's Day. I've been thinking about this day all week. It's such a tremendous honor to be a Father. I remember the specific days that all my children were born. I think back about how they have grown and matured over the years. How they are all so different and special. Of course I also have to think back at my own failures and that hurts.This Father's Day I choose to honor my

As I sought to find a way to commemorate Memorial Day this year, I read articles referencing the holiday, I searched the news clips, I searched blogs. I found many commentaries, some were informational, almost all were doing the same thing I was, trying to find meaning and significance in a day that we commemorate those that have sacrificed and fallen.Memorial day for me is a sacred day.

Started my new job on Wednesday. It is always interesting each time I make a directional change and this one is no different. The Company is really on top of things and very progressive as far as management, adminstration, operations. Seems to be an amazingly good amount of communication and responses from the top down. As a new employee I received informational emails in the intranet account

Over the last few weeks I've had a few caring individuals giving me advice and encouragement in the direction I should go. I appreciate the advice and encouragement, but I think very few understand my inner intentions and the driving force that guides me. This brings me to a topic that I've been learning about and seeing direct results from for the past year.Relationships;The condition or fact of
