Memorial Day

Here’s a picture that captures part of the meaning of Memorial Day for me:

Sitting under the Symbol of Freedom.

Building a Bird's Nest

Yesterday at lunch I watched this robin, start building this nest. By 5:30pm when I left this was the finished product.

The funny part is, this vehicle was just parked out back behind the shop at 10:30am and we’ll be bringing it back in to finish the work on it this am. So all that hard work for nothing.

Kind of reminds me of a story I heard in Bible class growing up…”the wiseman builds his house upon a rock, and the foolish man builds his house upon the sand.”

This picture of the robin can apply to a lot of areas of life: home, work, retirement, business, eternity, etc.

Where are you building today? Will it last?

Diet Plans

You know with the New Year comes a renewed interest in living a more healthy lifestyle and with that comes a new diet, maybe. I’ve started collecting a lot of information about different diets and instead of cluttering up this blog, I created a new site Today’s Best Diet.

Bald Eagles in Iowa City

This morning as we crossed the Iowa River on our way to church we saw three Bald Eagles. They were very close to the bridge. Hopefully I’ll be able to get some pictures of them soon. Here’s a photo that someone else took of Bald Eagles on the Iowa River. Maybe these were the same ones we saw this morning.
