What man doesn't like an all American burger especially in the heart of grilling season! You got your buddies over, the football game is on or maybe you're having an ultimate tailgate party. How do you impress your friends?

Take an ordinary food you can buy anywhere and turn it into a turbo charged grease bomb that will plug your arteries on the first bite

This is the perfect song for fall as we settle into the first full weekend of fall. This was a 1978 musical adaptation of the H.G. Wells classic "war Of The Worlds".

I woke up with my cup of coffee this morning and checked my Facebook and there it was an update from my daughter Sgt Brianna Carter taunting dear old dad with pancakes!

And I thought to myself how thoughtful people are to send these soldiers just a little slice of home while they are away from their families thousands of miles away and these soldiers are enjoying something so simple! Pancakes!

To see the joy on their faces while they cook  up these discs of deliciousness is so precious

Happy weekend everybody! As I sit here with my cup of coffee and thumb thru some old records I ran across this one that was a huge favorite of my uncle's. He was in a great rock & roll band in Spokane, Wa back in the late 1960's and early 1970's and Uncle Greg was the one who turned me onto blacklight posters, loud music, santana and really cool music.

So you are enjoying some time at Columbia Point or maybe down at Columbia Park and sure enough; here they come those little winged scavengers. Seagulls. Why do they hang around here? Because we have alot of waste from our food manufacturing facilities that gets sprayed on fields, which creates alot of good bugs for them to eat and generally our climate is a good fit for them
