Memorial Day

It'sMemorial Day, I would like to thank all of the soldiers who have
served and died through the years to keep our wonderful country a free
and safe place to live. On a personal note, I would like to thank my
many family members who have served also:my dads, my uncles, my
brothers, my son-in-law, my sister-in-law and a special thanks... to my youngest son,
Preston, who has made it his life's career to serve our country every
day. I love and salute you all.

Mother's day, 2009

We took the moms out Saturday night, to Smokey Snow's, in Salem. We had a great meal and a fun time. All of my youngin's called yesterday too..enjoyed the day just relaxing.

Avatar...what a cool movie

We just finished watching "Avatar", wow, wow, wow, James Camerson outdid himself this time, just fantastic, I highly recommend it.

I have been out hoeing the garden, and hilling the potatoes and feeding the tomatoes and blueberries, I guess a storm is coming this afternoon, otherwise I wouldn't have to work so hard this morning..... :-P....I'm having a great day though, and am wearing my ridiculous straw hat that makes me look like Mother goose....

The Fourth Kind

just finished watching "The Fourth Kind"....very disturbing docu/drama...with actual audio and footage...has anyone seen it, and what did you think?

P.S. after some "wickipedia-ing"...found out this movie was all fake, as far as the "actual video" which was also done by actors...boo!
