Too long between posts....



This picture is my new wife with a picture she made and sent to me.

Helen will be here next week, I hope.

I am reading a book I cannot give the title. I is a good book by Naomi Wulf. It is called a biography. 

I have four books waiting for me at the Stayton Library.  I will go there later today to get them.

I went to the St. Mary's Green Sale last night and bought centerpiece for Christmas

Pacific Standard Time...



Hi again:

This picture is a tulip field.  Nice to see the color this time of the year.

I did finish Too Big to Fail, and now I am reading Rin Tin Tin on my Kindle. 

I also reading Zero Day by David Baldacci.  I am about half way through it and soon it will become a page-turner.

I hope everyone turned their clocks back an hour last night. 

I am watching TV programs I recorded yesterday and today. 

I so happy the Ducks won yesterday.  The next two games will\ be easier ones on the Ducks as they finish the season undefeated.  California and the ugly Beavs are no match for the Ducks.  I predict the Beavs will lose the next two games, one to Stanford and lose to the Ducks again.

Friday today...



Hi:

I got this picture from an email I get from James Fellows of The Atlantic magazine.  It shows the inside of a factory in China.  Most employees live on the site of this factory and eat at the factory.  It makes Apple products for the American market.  It is near Shenzhen in eastern China, very near Hong Kong.

The name of this factory is Foxconn. 

I am still reading Too Big to Fail on my Kindle.  I was reading The Virgin Warrior about Joan of Arc, but it felt like reading how they make sausage.  Too much detail for my liking.  After about 50 pages I gave up on this book.

Not much else happening here.

The picture in my last post...



It works now.....I can post again.

This picture shows the 1902 wallpaper in the Brown House, which it slowly being restored. 

The picture in my last post is the outside of the Brown House.  It has been repainted and looks quite nice from the outside.  But the inside needs a lot of work to be ready as s communtiy center and a place to have wedding receptions.

Now that I can write posts on this blog again I will do so much more often than in the past.
