This is the kind of thing that gets people excited about space! We need more scientists, engineers, etc. to fuel exploration and new ideas, but our educational system seems to be only focused on tests. I certainly don’t have the answers, but watching this made me feel like a little kid and that thought of being an Astronaut that we all had at one point.
I had this as the main page, but didn’t want to remember that night anymore. I just want to remember how wonderful he was. If you’d like to read it, here it is: click
This May was the second annual Lake Powell trip and it did not disappoint. The detour around 89 to Page didn’t extend the drive too much, the weather was perfect, the people were as great as always and the lake as beautiful as ever. We hiked, kayaked, swam, relaxed, napped, played games and sat around the campfire each night reminiscing about the day’s activities, life and the other usual campfire topics. I finally had the opportunity to try out my…
Every year the El Paso, Tucson and Phoenix HHH groups put on an event in Rocky Point (Puerty Penasco), Mexico and I’ve been down for the last four years.

This past weekend I went on a ride with a few friends out to Roosevelt Lake.

Once we left there we continued south to Roosevelt Dam for a break and to talk with other riders out enjoying the day. After that we went through the Globe area and rode west back to Phoenix. Check out…
Last night I went to a Phoenix Suns game against Toronto at the US Airways Center in Phoenix. I hadn’t been to a game in years and now I know why. They played loud music throughout the game which was a mix of the usual game sounds (organs) to a live person mixing music throughout the game play. It was like being at a concert, but with so many breaks every few seconds to different types of music that it…
Makers Mark Website Dear Ambassador, Since we announced our decision last week to reduce the alcohol content (ABV) of Maker’s Mark in response to supply constraints, we have heard many concerns and questions from our ambassadors and brand fans. We’re humbled by your overwhelming response and passion for Maker’s Mark. While we thought we were doing what’s right, this is your brand – and you told us in large numbers to change our decision. You spoke. We listened. And we’re…
Saw two people hit their dogs at the dog park today for no reason. Not little taps but a full swing. I asked one guy why he hit his dog and asked if he would like to be hit that hard. I really dislike people sometimes.
