Just some pictures.

The Nat. My aunt and uncle... ah yea
These pictures have no deep meaning. So do not try to figure them out.

Some more history. Because there are no new pictures.

The swastika is an ancient symbol often used as an ornament or religious sighn. The swastika is the form of cross with the ends of the arms bent at right angles in a given direction, usually cloclwise. The swastika has been found on Byzantine buildings, Buddhist inscriptions, Celtic monuments, and Greek coins. Swastikas were widely used symbols among the Indians of North and South America. The clockwise swastika was adopted in 1920 as the symbol of the National Socialist Party of Germany. As such it came to be one of the most hated symbols in the history of humanity. It came to stand for all the evil associated with the Nazis as they gained control of Europe before and during World War ll. After the Allies defeated Germany in 1945, they banned the display of of the swastika emblem.

Happy Thank... Oh you know what I am going to say.

Sgiving. And happy day after Thanksgiving or black Friday as some call it. And believe it or not my sister is going shopping to day. I mean I do not care for shpping to start out with[shuddder]. Today is also the birthday of Bat Masterson and Scott Joplin. Here is one last bit of neat history about today. On this day in 1962 Dawn Fraser, an Australian swimmer, sets the 11th of her 12 world records and the eighth of nine in a row in the 100-meter freestyle with a time of 59.5 seconds. Well have a good Friday I mean a good black friday.

Missing link

I do not like this phrase because it assumes that there is a missing link. If it is missing and you
have never seen it than how do you know there is such a thing? But if you have found it (which some claim they have) then it is no longer the missing link but the found one. So in truth, for the ones who do not believe that there is such a thing(like myself) , we should call it the link that never was. And I will let the people that think they have found the link that never was think up a name for there so called found link. I think that those who say ,"missing link", should not say it unless they really think that there is a link that is missing.
Even though there is no evidence. But that is a different sort of thing to talk about some other time.

Trip to Canada

My great, great Aunt.

The border.
Went to Canada (as is stated clearly above) this weekend to visit my great, great Aunt. And had a great time. My grandma and grandpa came with us also.









Thursday night and this afternoon we have been burning the pond.

Well so far this week has been normal(unlike most). Of course it is only Monday. You never know who will walk in the door or call or.. or anything can happen. Though it is only Monday I am in full stride. Did school this morning, this afternoon I went woodcarving, then to TKD, and from there I came home ate dinner, did dishes, and some other odds and ends that are pointless to bring up.

I would stop telling what I am doing and post pictures but due to computer breakdowns and camera breakdowns the amount of pictures in this house are minimal, the maximum of which you have seen on mine and my family members blogs. Hope you get that.

trail that you can hardly make out.

Well October is gone and my sister will be the same way soon/..And with November comes hunters and this year those guys who say," vote for me and you will have everything your way. When if they where
really telling the truth they would say, "vote for
me and you will wish you never had. Ok maybe
that is going a little to far but somtimes it is way to close.

The picture above has something in it besides grass that is important. I will put the answer on my next post.



Well so long.
