The Salmon Dance

Salmon Facts:When Salmon are about to spawn (usually when they are fat and dumb enough for me to catch them) they look much different than their ocean stage. I vaguely remember having a vat (if you will) of baby salmon in the hallwayof the old Lakeside middle school building, where we would study and watch them progress from fry to smolt...

Fall is Upon us

So the web address hasn't changed, but I thought a more subdued picture was appropriate for the change in weather.

Cool Ranch

You know when you do something so often or so much you dream about it. Well I don't necessarily write for this blog daily, although I try to keep it frequent, but I do think about it regularly even if I don't put the time in to type out my thought processes. I dreamed about this blog last night- that I wrote several posts, therefore I didn't need to do one today. I was relieved. I have tons of topics to write on mind you,...

The Britons and the French!

Before you make snap judgments about my personality (which are probably true) you must know that the reason I asked TiVo to record this movie is because of two or three scenes at the begining of the movie which I just think are awesome.
