This is a crappy downsizing-jpg'ing of a shot of Mr. Happy, my sweetie Erna and myself under the redwoods.

New directions...
Well the blogging of the trip to Oregon and California didn't work out as I could never get an internet connection in the places we stayed at. Drove Mr. Happy my 1970 VW Combi hippy van all the way there and more importantly all the way back. He's a gas, but you sure have to "drive" him. None of this thumb on the well sipping a latte stuff with Mr. Happy. Heaven forbid you get a sudden cross wind gust!
Since returning I have found that my semi-retirement gig at Home Depot just isn't cutting it for me. I'm just to much of an old codger to have people half my age telling me what to do and how to do it. Having your own business for half your working life tends to give you a perspective that is not necessarily shared by corporate types.
So I have gone down to half time and will be starting a web design business. My target market will be small to medium sized businesses. Especially new keen startups. I love dealing with people who are totally committed to being successful and are able to call the shots. To get my feet wet and get back into the web swing of things I have redesigned our church website from the ground up. It was a horrid thing that had not been updated since the flood I think. Check it out at www.foothillslutheran.com It's still a work in progress but I'm pretty happy with it so far.
I was out last night taking shots of my father in law Henry Goerzen driving a Massey F 860 combine. He's 80 years old and still going strong. The crop looks pretty good so far and God willing my brother's in law and father in law will get it all off before any weather comes along to destroy it.
That's all for now soup fans.
