‘Tis The Season
It is only natural that I would put a picture up that reflects the recent wedding of our oldest son and his new bride!
Congratulations to Jordan and Becca!

But, It’s June!
There are a couple of interesting things to observe in this picture.
First, there is snow on the ground. The picture was taken this past February while on the way to Omaha for a basketball game. As the summer starts to heat up, you need to remember that relief will come.
Second, in the background is a tower that had been used for microwave communications. At one time it was a vital part of our communications infrastructure, but hasn’t been live for several years.
You get extra points if you can tell me where this picture was taken.

Watching You…
A couple of weeks ago I noticed a hoot barred owl sitting on a sign along side the road leading out to our house. He was there one evening and then again the next morning. Then, he was gone.
Yesterday, as I drove to work in a light rain, there he was again. He was closely watching the ground – probably looking for some critter to eat. When I stopped my truck on the road to watch him, he looked directly at me and I got this picture.
Pretty cool, eh?

A Bright Spot
Leaves are gone off the trees. The grass is brown. The sky is cloudy. People get depressed. The temperatures lately have been hitting near-record lows. Most people are just trying to get through winter and are looking forward to spring.
But, keep your eyes open. There are always bright spots, like the Cardinal that is pictured above.
Let’s not get so focused on surviving winter that we forget to look for the Bright Spots that are all around us.

At The Mall
Riley County High School performed at Manhattan Town Center prior to Christmas. Following the mall, they went to Meadowlark Hills and performed for the folks there.
Let’s always remember why we celebrate Christmas,
