July

Just finished another weekend of concerts. Got Corp tickets to thursday night at Rock Fest with Steve Miller Band. This coming friday got tickets to Country Jam. Will be glad when the fests are done!!

Built a fire pit in the back yard & went to the cities where my brother-in-law showed me where to get free wood. Split about a third of it this weekend & we have enough for maybe a couple years. When you split it there's more than what you think. Usually have 1 or 2 fires on the weekend. It's relaxing.

Not much else here. Work, home, concerts, etc.

Everybody take care.

Happy 4TH

So much going on these last couple weekends that I fell behind. Last weekend was the concert & this weekend we went to the cities cause Lori's sister from Colorado was there. Get to rest tommorrow! The last pic is meet & greet with Jason Aldien. Filets, lobster, crab legs & all the trimings. Front row, center stage. Don't get no better!!

Everybody take care & have a safe 4th

Told most of you that we got corperate seating for George Strait on the 28th of this month. Should be a great time!

Changed the oil in the bike & went for a short ride today. It's a georgous day out & tommorrow is suppose to be the same so hopefully Lori & I can go for a ride.

Not much here right now. Usual household stuff. Seems like everyone is doing fine. Tyler is going into the "work force" after graduating. Times are tough & hope it all works out for him.

All take care...................dan, dad

One more weekend

Another month gone! Time goes by to fast. Had a good ride last weekend but rain all this weekend. Showers now & suppose to go thru tommorrow night. Can't ride or do outside work so sit back & watch a movie. Lori went to the cities for the day so until she gets back guess I'll do stuff around the house. Boring huh!
Everyone here doing well & everyone else doing good also. Rock Fest & Country Fest coming this month. My work is a sponsor & I'm trying to get sponsor seating for George Strait. It's on a sunday night. Sponsor seating gets you front row, great food & free drinks. Got these seats for Sugerland last year.
All take care & will write next week.

End of May

Didn't get a chance to leave news last weekend. Went to the cities to watch Lori's niece finish a 12 mile marathon. Stopped at a local eatery & had lunch. Good time.

This weekend went on a cycle ride. Left here at 2:00pm & got back at 6:00pm. Good ride! Lots of curvey roads & then road along the Mississippi river. All the bluffs & river was great but sore butt by the time we got home. Not used to a 4 hour ride yet! Went with 3 other people so really enjoyed it. Now it's catch up on yard work I didn't do yeasterday!! Worth it.

Tyler graduated! Congrats to him & his future. Shane also moved on with his Army career. Wish him the greatest. Our prayers & thoughts are with him & the whole family. It's a good move & job security for all.

At this point, not much else here. Just another day in somebody's paradise!

All take care. Will post more next week.

Busy Weekend

Went & helped my brother-in-law, Jerry, in the cities put down a hard wood floor in his house saturday. Even though I'm hurting today it was fun & I owed him a favor any way as he came down & helped me with my shed. We scratched our heads alot at first but once we got going it was quick.
My brother, Dave, owns a Harley & was out for a ride last friday (5-08-09). A lady was talking on her cell phone & decided to change lanes without looking. She hit him, put on her brake then decided to leave. He has a broken femer, collar bone, several ribs, puntured lung & lacerated liver. Not life threatning but painful. We all wish him well. He should be home by monday to recover.
I have to cut the grass today so gotta get at it. Everybody take care.

MAY !!

Already May. Can't believe how time is going by.
Got a ride in today (saturday). A little windy & abit cold but made it a short one. The club bike blessing is tommorrow so hope the wind dies down as it would be nice out except for the wind. They have a Pastor bless you & your bike & then a "Shawmen" comes with an Indian blessing along with the smoke stick. Need all the help I can get!! We go for a ride after. Suppose to be nice. And yes Jody, you get a ride!!!!
Trees are doing good so far that I planted. Wait & see if they make it. Mowed the lawn for the first time today. It was a "John Deere" day!!!!!!
About it for now. Going to Mpls to help my brother-in-law tear up carpet & lay wood floor next weekend. He came down & helped with the shed so I owe him. I'd do it anyway.
Everybody take care.
