Wait for it

I sometime think that I have the patience of a Saint, when it comes to fishing. But nothing like an Egret. They will stand for what seems like forever, in one spot, or moving very slowly through the water. They wait for just the right moments, and as quick as it happens, they are back to waiting for the next little fish to come by. Kind of like, ice fishing. You wait, and you wait, but in the end it is worth it. Kind of like a lot of things in life. What are you waiting for? Do you have the patience to wait?

One Fair Down

One fair down and two more to go. It sounds like a lot of work and you are right. Is it fun, you bet it is. Every thing you enter has the potential to be a blue ribbon or so Kim tell me. So how did we do at the Hennepin County Fair. Ribbon count: Ted 7, Kim 43 and each of us received a Champion ribbon. The Eagle photo for me and Kim Catsup.

Chasing Bubbles

The other night I watched this Eastern Phoebe, chasing bubbles in the stream. Now the bubbles might have looked like bugs, but it was just bubbles coming from the waterfalls upstream. It got me thinking, how many times in our life, have we been chasing bubbles.

Bathroom Update: The walls have been skim coated and primed, the cabinets have been painted, the track lights installed, the marble for the floor has been purchased. I told Kim that it would be finished by June 30, no problem.

It's a Ted and Kim Thing

 I always said that I wanted a headstone in the backyard, well now I have one. However, I don't think that it has found it's final resting place yet.

Okay, after visiting one of the homes in the neighborhood that had not been touch since it was build in the 60's. I thought it was time to take on the middle bathroom. For those of you that have seen the counter top and love it, it is staying. But keep watching for updated.



Why not, dogs will be dogs and why not have fun. And when you are three pounds, you can pull this off. Now if I can only hang on past 50 mph.
