Time for a break

Just another quick note to say that I have not forgotten this post. Classes finished at the university and us locals are having more fun than getting productive work done. Squirrel hunting is a new recreation for me. I haven't successfully killed one yet, but I get to shoot the 12 gauge. I've run around to see friends here, but haven't done worth beans keeping in touch with friends and family that are away. So this week is dedicated to trying to do some of that (does this count as partial credit?).

I thought I would go through some of my pictures tonight while I had some time between fun and games. So I am including some pictures from Monument Valley, Arizona - Navajo Tribal Park. Exceptionally beautiful place at sunrise, and my campsite was perfect for watching just that. A good memory refreshed by pictures.





Duane, my "secret" is to go to amazing places and take mediocre pictures that look great because the subject is so much more awe-inspiring.

Anyways, I will head to Mom's for Christmas. Christmas Day, Brian and I will help Grandma do the cooking for her traditional Christmas feast. Breakfast with Mom and Brian, then cooking with Grandma makes the holiday special for me, the rest is just bonus.

God bless and keep you all these holidays.

In the fall

Well, it's been a while. But I had a great break just relaxing at Mom's place. Worked some cutting firewood, patching holes in the chimney, and fixing the pickup but that was fun (most of the time). I went over and hung out at Grandma's, but I narrowly missed seeing my big brother and his family as well as Dad and his bunch. Christmas break is coming, I will try to make it then. I did take some pictures while I was there, of which you can see a few.

The rainbow is from the Neosho State Park as is the bridge. We had a dusting of snow
a few days later, but not enough to really cover the ground good. Ranjit was really proud of his meager little snowman. Then the guys played against each other inside on the computers (Look at the screen and guess what it is, Duane).

Anyways, football on TV is the action for today. Not a big fan myself, but it is popular among the others at ABS. So we will hang out, eat, and call it a day. I might sneak out after eating. Especially if the Hogs start looking like meat for the Gators. But we can win this if our team gets it together.

Talk at ya later.
