“Our destiny changes with our thought; we shall become what we wish to become, do what we wish to do, when our habitual thought corresponds with our desire.” Marden, Orison Swett “Love begins at home, and it is not how much we do… but how much love we put in that action.” Mother Teresa “Our …
Pain in the Neck
Have I mentioned before how much I love editing? Just in case anyone is confused…. I love editing. I am half way through reviewing like 50 hours of footage for one of these current projects. Some of the footage I am seeing for the first time. I found myself laughing out loud on a 4 …
Wheels on the Bus
These times are teaching all of us…. Again. College students are home and unable to find work. Grown men and women are applying for work that was traditionally for teen-agers. Nothing like having to use grammatically correct verb-age to order your burger from your child’s English teacher or having the water park life guards try …
Coming and Going

Progress?
I like learning this stuff! Chris did an amazing job leveling the backyard with the tractor. I don’t know why we had to check the measurements, but we did. So…. now what?

Empty Canvas
This is our backyard. We moved here 9 years ago. We did have grass and a couple of trees, but for 8 months we have had…. dirt. I like to look at it as a clean slate, an empty canvas, of endless possibilities, and opportunities. However you look at it doesn’t really matter. It is …
