I slept til about 10:30am today, then got on the computer to do research about my week ahead. I found some places to visit / photograph and some great hikes to try out. Then, I relaxed a bit as the wind and rain kicked up. Around 2pm, I headed out to Crystal Magic, my favorite …

Politics
Just because I haven’t posted a political blog in a few days, doesn’t mean I’m not heavily paying attention to the election. The debate was good. I think McCain’s facial expressions were a bit odd. He mentioned Joe, the Plumber too many times. Obama did very well. He stayed on target, knew his subjects well, …

Why does the Republican party …

Where Are We Going?
The economy is terrible. The pressure will be on our next President to solve the problem. Truthfully, I do not think the problem will be solved in 4 or 8 years – even with a brilliant plan. I think it will take a few decades to repair the damage Bush has done! As a nation, …
