Thankful - Day 7

"If The Only Prayer You Say In Your Entire Life Is - 'Thank You' - That Is Enough"
Meister Eckhart 1260-1328
Christian Writer and Theologian


Technology. Think how many things have been created or upgraded in just the last 25 years. It's absolutely amazing! In the 1990's, we got our first cell phone. Compared to the cell phones of today... IT WAS HUGE! And it pretty much installed in the car, for use in the car not out running around like we do today. We had cassette tape players and DVD players that have almost been replaced by something 1/3 of the size that can hold even MORE information, music, books, etc. Computers have gone from taking up an entire ROOM to desktop versions, laptops and not the notebook size.

All I can say is... it's really exciting. I can't wait to see where technology is going next. As my husband and I age, we think it's pretty important to "keep up", technologically speaking. And affordable, these items are not all that much more expensive than previous models but easily out perform them!

I am Thankful for Technology and to be living in such changing times.


Ha Ha Ha Ha... yeah, that is about the size of our old cell phone. Wow, I really am Thankful for new Technology!

When a railroad was surveyed through this area he envisioned an industrial center here and acquired various properties close to the right of way. He introduced celery production to the area. Rice started construction on his home in 1885 using the same craftsmen that were working on the Pitkin House. The house originally had 20 rooms and was painted yellow. Surrounded by well-kept grounds with various trees and a sundial, the house was approached by an oval driveway and a stone-pillared entryway. The grounds also in...

Norwegian Pancakes (Norska Pannekaken)

Every culture has its pancake and this is the Norwegian version, a very light, crepe-like pancake that goes with just about anything. These "pancakes" are light and eggy and go with both sweet and savory fillings.

Kristen's Motorcycle Lesson

It's been a REALLY long time since I put anything up and decided today was the day to get busy. Wes and I took our son Wes and his fiance Kristen out to learn how to ride a motorcycle. We drove down to our local Marshall's parking lot, actually behind the store to avoid traffic and started the lesson. As you can see from the video, SHE DID GREAT! I am so proud of her that she would even want to learn and then to do so well on her first try. Kristen...YOU ARE AWESOME!!
