My Favorite Weather

Although I like pretty much any weather I do have a favorite kind. And it so happens that it
is kind that is passing through our area at the moment. Which is most likely why am writing this in the first
place. And that weather is none other than the great the powerful the awe inspiring thunder storm.
I love these because they are so powerful(as said before) and that power is unleashed so that
you can see how little man is. Sure we have the A-bomb and all that other stuff but it is really
nothing compared with what God can do. Remember he flooded the world 40 days and still
he was showing mercy to Noah and his family. And so I think every time God sends us a storm
he is giving us a little nudge and saying I am in control, then he sends the rainbow to say I love you.

The thunder roared the lightning flashed, a tree fell down a frog got smashed.
And somewhere in that tree there was a Chip

Well I have been keeping busy as my speratic posting may prove. Between mowing the

lawn, finishing up with school, planting the garden and the other etc. stuff I do, I am doing great.

Heh, Those excuses for not posting did not sound all that bad. Well pictures above are proof.

Oh alright they have nothing to do with me but they are nice. I Only wish I could telll what they

are. I would post more pictures of my carvings but I do not wish to bore you with that sort of thing.

Besides I do not have any more pictures of them than the ones I have already shown. And yes

I know I am mumbling on, so I better stop before you find out what I am really doing.

Chip off the old block.

Where did the block go??

Well

I guess it is time to update this thing. Wouldn't it be easier if it just updated it's self. Oh, well.

I know that is not a complete sentence. Oh well. These past couple days we have ( my family and I) been enjoying this weather by cleaning the dead wood off the forest floor and making big bombf... oops I mean bonfires. I have also continued carving and have one more done and am working on a new one.

My Chip Carvings ... pun intended.

Unsure

Well for those of you who did not realize it, I am unpredictable. But in my defense I come from the family of unpredictable. I reallize this most when, like the day before yesterday I came
home from TKD to find my brother who was supposed to be in Florida, sitting at in the kitchen.
Wow, And what was more surprising was that I got over it in a couple minutes. I think I am getting used to it. But it is good to see him again even if I did not expect it. So always beware of the unpredictable. Wait isn't that what makes it unprecitable. Oh I am just going to stop. As if it's not boring already. That is latest ramblings from the Chip... whatever.


Chip the chipper

He has risen!

Happy Easter. I had a great Easter. Hope yours was the same.

Ahhhh Winter is Back

I had to open my big mouth about spring. Now the geese are going to start
heading south again and we will have no water fowl in the north this year.
Well I guess we will just have to have spring again. What was that about the
earth warming up.

Ah Spring

I like spring. It is a refreashing season. When you can step out side and get
some freash air without running back to the house saying cold cold collld.
It is time when you can go for a walk without first puting on a layer of
restricting clothing that makes you to hot anyway. Ok, I am not saying I do not like winter but everything in it's
time and season. eh. I think I like spring in it's season better
than... oh well never mind.

The tournament

It went well.

Sadly, I came home with no medals but came home with knowledge and memories of
a good time which can be worth more than all the medals in the world.
I came home with some bruises though. My opponent could kick hard.
Mr. Michael got silver in pattern and sparring and Miss Abby got bronze in breaking.
Good job to all who took part in the tournament.


Pilsung!

Yaa hooo

I have another niece. She came into this world Tuesday night her name is Claire Simone and she weighs 8lb 14 oz and is 22.5 inches tall. And is cute. Oh, And her birthday is on the same day as her cousin Jak's birthday which is kind of neat.

We also spent the past two days helping H family move to the country. That was fun. I Wish them all the best in ther new place.

And tomorrow we have a tournament in Alexandria. I am hiped and ready.

There is a post coming

So here are some pictures for the time being.

Snow

Ok we got some snow this week but it was not a blizzard. They foercasted a blizzard then it came and we got some snow and some wind but no blizzard. Than after the snow fall they called it a blizzard which it was not. So just as a warning if you think that is as bad as it gets it is not. I think that it was smart of them to close the schools for safety reasons. But to call it a blizzard after the fact could give people who have never been in a real one the wrong idea so that they might think that if that was a blizzard it is not that bad which real ones are. Just a pet peeve.

Fun pictures

My poor T-rex.

A cool beam of light that we saw last night.

The moon.

Arrrgg

Warning: Choking hazard. If you like pointless posts please feel free to read. But if at this moment you are trying to gain knowledge I suggest omit reading this post. Thank you


The reason for the arrrgg is because no title seemed to fit this post. Well I was going to post pictures because it is a whole lot easier then writing and it is Sunday and I feel relaxed. Oh, Ok I know what your thinking relaxed and lazy are synonyms of each other. Well think that if you like. But this week has been great. Hope the next is better then it though. Arrrgg my mind is really la... I mean relxed this evening. Sorry I think I will have to leave and come and post sometime when my brain is working.

P.S. Here is some more pointless stuff. The state fish of Hawaii is the Humuhumunukunukuapuaa.

More old good pictures.

Lots of effort into one wink. This is Jonathan B.

Flying Saucer

Even though this picture was taken almost three years ago it
is still one of my favorite. And not just because I am in it.
That was fun!!
