FALLEN HEROES


It is 7:09 a.m. and 70.9 degrees out. Junior is asleep downstairs and Patrick is outside.











This week's Movie Review: Junior and I saw The Transformers yesterday. It was great! Lots of cool special effects, and only a few stupid parts. Highly recommended!! I'm sure GM is pleased with their investment--a real showcase for the new Camaro...



Junior and I visited the grave of Scott Zubowski, a Marine KIA that Junior went to school with. There was another high school chum there at the time we visited. We put another flag up on his new memorial. Here is a link to our Geocaching Page in honor of Scott.

Thanks to Kay for this:

Disorder In The Court...
These are from a book called Disorder in the American Courts, and are
things people actually said in court, word for word, taken down and now
published by court reporters who had the torment of staying calm while
these exchanges were actually taking place.

Yeah, LOL, I have seen that before. While I have always used a map , compass and dead reckoning, this GPS run GeoCaching game sounds interesting as a serious maphead and explorer. and our foothills and mountains are prime locations. It is similar to the logs left on peaks out here, sign date and comment. I could get into this as you have seen from some of my posts. It sounds like a modern version of what I call orienteering.
