A nod of agreement or an argument: either way the ice is broken Some of my friends comment on my shameless self promotion. I prefer to refer to it as "branding". Good or bad, people will talk about me (and either way I have an increased chance of your business). Imagine me as mediocre, and noone ...

Thirty days and still stretching My personal 100 Day Attack The last ten days have flown by.  This is the result of always having something to do. Always part of the solution, never a confirming part of the problem. I can see, ahead, where changes have to be made. This comes from detailed journal...

I had picked my comfortable chair... Plenty to do in the morning, and then a lull. Time to combine lunch with a glance at the newspaper (delivered to the "exact" spot. The ceiling fan was doing its job in my living room. And then Zzzz-zz-z. A strange awakening not knowing at first whether it was ...

Tater tots and onion rings With the warmer weather and increased daylight hours upon us, it is easy to forget to eat regularly, or for that matter, to properly space meals. That gnawing feeling in a growling stomach may well suggest a lack of nutrition. Life can be hectic, with a never ending lis...

We are certainly enjoying summer in Sandy UT. Sunrise (over the mountains of the Wasath Front) arrives prior to 6am and sunset it not until past 9pm - 15 plus hours of daylight to get everything done in that summer suggests. First and last light makes daytime even longer as late arriving vehicula...

Plenty of color on the map As a hobby, I look at seismic activity of the Intermountain Corridor (Utah to Yellowstone) specifically in one week lots. In previous examinations we had entered a lull with most weeks surveyed producing less than 20 events. For the week up to today there is much more a...

Summer warmth in Salt Lake City UT One cool day this week and now back to summer heat. The last of last winter's snows desperately trying to hang on ~ now barely evident on the highest peaks. The warmer weather, along with leafy shade and abundant summer flowers has drawn visitors from all over, ...
