My Birthday

For my 58th birthday, we went up to Garden Valley to give Stacia’s parents a hand with their phone and a few other things. I had the opportunity to drive like a mad-man over Horseshoe Bend Hill and then once we got up there I took the drone out and became a general nuisance. I […]

Trip to Baker City with Talon

Talon has a job from 2020 for a small cell phone store in Baker City, Oregon and he invited me to go along.  It was a lot of fun, every time a song would play that had any swearing in it, Talon and I would both go <BEEP> at each swear word. We are talking, […]

Jeanine and the Doctors

A couple of days ago Roscoe and Jeanine came to Boise because Jeanine was wetting herself. We took her to the InstaCare.  While she was there she refused to pee so they could test her for a UTI. After a little bit, Stacia told her that they were going to just sit there until she […]

Bye to Talon’s Ford Ranger

Talon’s truck started having transmission issues on Satuday of last week. We took it to the shop to have it looked at and they said it would probably cost about $4,500 to repair. Since he is planning on going on a mission in the next couple of months, it didn’t make sense to spend all […]

Old letters

I had a few old letters that were in my game room and as I was sitting here decided to read them.  Mostly they were fairly generic birthday cards and a few letters from friends.  I did find one letter that my Mom typed to me while I was in the Air Force. One part […]

The Green Belt in Garden City

Pam and Scott Kimball came to visit yesterday, kinda…. They came to Boise to go to the Journey Concert. In the process, they decided to go upto Garden Valley to see Roscoe and Jeanine. Stacia, Talon and I met them at WinCo after we went shopping for a few things that R&J needed so they […]

Lots of Hospitals

This is the month of hospitals. My Aunt Geniel had a hip replacement last week.  We went out hand ran into Wes and Daniel while we were there. She was doing well and it was good to see her and the cousins. This week my Father-in-law, Roscoe, is having a hernia fixed and my Son, […]

Shooting with Alan and the Kids

Alan and I decided to go shooting and we were able to get Alan’s son Andrew and Talon to go.  It was a lot of fun! We decided to go the next week and added Alan’s daughter Rebecka (sp?)  Stacia remided me that I had purchased some of the exploding targets as one of my […]

Puttin’ together a spine

Alan’s daughter commissioned me to make her a 3D printed human spine.  I finally got all the parts printed (PLA for the bones and TPU for the spine so it is flexable) It has been a pain to print and not much fun for assembly, but I think I’m getting there.  Hopefully will have it […]

Visitors

Looks like Rusty is coming to Boise area this week.  We’ll see if he comes over on Thursday or Friday.  The reason I’m curious is that he came to one of the game nights about a year or so ago and was apparently holding a grudge against Alan because he doesn’t ever contact him.  I’m […]
