still waiting on winter here. the high today will be almost 70 degrees. this is at the end of january. my chickens are laying eggs because of the warm weather. it is making that al gore sound spooky with all that global warming he talked about. man has messed up his environment. havent had any snow or cold temperatures yet this season. there is a reason for everything. snow puts moisture in the ground for gardens. the cold kills germs. i am aware of that point as i caught the flu from somewhere.
the k u jayhawks got beat this past weekend. no big deal since as usual they are playing way over what people expected out of them. it did give the rednecks down the road something to cheer about since their team isnt. they will be better as the season goes on. they had a tough schedule so far this year and still have some top teams to play. i will follow them all the way. my money will be riding on them again this ncaa tourney.
i will miss a few games because i will be in peru at the end of april. i am still getting used to saying that. i dreamt of doing this for a lifetime. i dont know if i will feel like the new agers and say i feel the vibes there. i wont look at the many ruins i will go to and think that space aliens built them because the natives couldnt have. i do know it will be a great trip. the hot springs will be a 5 minute walk from the hotel i stay at when i get to the bottom of the hill at machu picchu. i will soak for sure. i found out i may not see the nasca lines. that would be an all day trip and cost an additional 500 some dollars. i will just stay on the tour and see the rest. my brand new nikon camera isnt acting right. the battery wont hold a charge. i will get that worked on before i leave.
i better check my socks before and after i leave on this trip. when i worked at leavenworth this one preacher kept talking about the trips he took. he just got back from somewhere and was heading somewhere else. everyone was impressed listening to him talk about his missionary travels. india, middle east, europe etc. his religion sprung for some trips. we were at a check point somewhere inside the prison. so we had to take off our shoes. this dude had a hole in one sock. i thought if you gonna travel the world, at least get some new socks. perhaps he took a vow of poverty. but then the trips had to cost some coin.
i let my newspaper subscriptions lapse long ago. i dont miss them. they were charging more for less paper. the only down side is i am getting more information off the internet. you cant believe everything you read on the net. it must balance out because you couldnt believe everything you read in the paper either. i wrote a paper in college about how if you are exposed to a certain opinion all the time, you soon adopt that opinion as your own. the teacher accepted my point. thats probably why tribal papers across the country have you believe you are in the garden of eden.
will see what this week brings…….
