On the topic of kids

And we are obviously buying less and conscious of all our choices - escaping the consumerism of elaborate do-it-yourself decor and prepared cuisine, the soccer mom mystique, and the bored, lazy, 'gimme' kids.

Sometimes a quote comes along that really fits the way you think and live. This is one of those quotes, and the best part is that it comes from my DW. When you spoil you kids with love and a learning environment, no problem. I do believe that some parents do really take care of their kids and teach them to be strong non-whining adults that work to support themselves and intern teach the next generation to do the same. Then there is the rest of the parents that are raising whining think that they deserve everything but don't want to work for it spoiled brats that will complain about the government full time, but are the first ones there with their hands out and still think the should get more.... assbites!

Then again some people complain about the way we raise our kids saying that we are way too strict and should lighten up on them. We just want them to have more opportunity's that we do/did and to be strong adults that can carry on a conversation with other people that also have brain that is functioning.

And if you don't like the way I'm teaching my children........

Bravo! If I had kids, I'd want them to be yours.

Can I send you a couple of nephews that needed a parent with a little back-bone? Nice kids but incapable of thinking on their own, unaccustomed to being expected to work or organize anything on their own. I am sure that in a few months you could make a big difference in their lives. Of course one is 19 and the other one is 23, is it too late?

"do not accept any large packages with holes in the side!" Wait a minute... isn't that how you got WC in the first place?

Besides, DG probably wouldn't bother with the holes. Oh yeah, he really just loves his nephews...

Wow ... you guys need to come stay at our hotel, lol. God bless you in raising those kids the way you are. The world is overrun with slouching, indifferent, metal-studded-morons who have no idea how to converse with another person without a keyboard.

Wild cow and Druish Deities

I have been blessed with being able to drive some of the most unbelievable roads ever paved. Last week I found myself on HWY 108 in Central California. 130 Miles 26% grade 9624 at the summit 4 hours to drive this route This photo is looking west just down from the summit. I could live here with the wild cows. A lone wild cow at the 9000 foot level just making sure that nobody is speeding along.

Madison, WI.

The whole theme today was a Woodchuck and his ale. I found a nice little place in downtown Madison, WI. called the Great Dane Pub & Brewing Company. This was one of the best IPAs I've had east of the Rockies. Fun little place to go and the food was not to bad either. Traveling the Globe...ok, just the North American continent in search of the perfect pint on IPA. Hops, they are not just for breakfast anymore.
