It starts out on the waterfront—sea level. Then it goes UP, UP, UP to Hurricane Ridge (at least a mile, I think). Probably the most beautiful place in the world—you can sit on your deck (facing north) and see the lights of Victoria, Canada; you can look out your window (facing south) and see the incredibly beautiful Olympics.
Never in a million years did I ever think I would be glad that Grampa and Mom are no longer alive. I used to LOVE Montana. Mom told us stories of her childhood in Conrad MT. One was very sad—how Grampa cried when the locusts destroyed the wheat crop. It would break their hearts to know that this slimebucket, Baucus, is from there.
I’ve been wondering if I would be violating their silly little census rules if I wrote the following:
There is one American citizen living in this house. All other information can be found at the county courthouse or the state offices. Feel free to do your own research.
Agreed————He’s a gentleman, through and through. I was broken-hearted when Andre retired. But Federer took over like a champ. I’ve been smiling all day.
I am SUCH a music snob—can’t abide anything after Vivaldi; except Doo Wop and 1960s rock-n-roll which I totally adore. Thank you for such great memories!
Professor Swets (Calvin College) wrote the following words to the tune of Finlandia:
I sought the Lord, and afterward I knew
He moved my soul to seek Him, seeking me;
It was not I that found, O Savior true;
No, I was found, was found of Thee.
It was not I that found, O Savior true;
No, I was found, was found of Thee.
Thou didst reach forth Thy hand and mine enfold;
I walked and sank not on the storm-vexed sea;
‘Twas not so much that I on Thee took hold,
As Thou, dear Lord, on me, on me.
‘Twas not so much that I on Thee took hold,
As Thou, dear Lord, on me, on me.
I find, I walk, I love; but O the whole
Of love is but my answer, Lord, to Thee!
For Thou wert long beforehand with my soul;
Always, always Thou lovedst me.
For Thou wert long beforehand with my soul;
Always, always Thou lovedst me.
She’s not alone. I’m just so sad today that he’s gone. Did a research paper on him in college. He did a duet with his father which brought tears to my eyes—Panis Angelicus.
I was stunned at the panel’s view of the Swimmer. I’m wondering when they will have Mary Jo’s family present their opinion of him. Fair and balanced? I think not.
Thank you for stating that fact. Talk about RACISM!!!!!!! They spend hours and hours and hours talking about how evil Republicans are for demanding border security because it’s (gasp!) racist. Excuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuse me? Who are the racist pigs here?
