See nationally known motorcross jumper Todd Bennick Jump our Church buses AND watch as the "Holy Roller" Monster Truck crushes several cards under its huge tires!

That was the headline for an event last week at the High Street Baptist Church, less than a mile from my home. I didn't notice the advert until after the fact. Looks like I missed out. Maybe next year.

I just got back from the Fort Hill Men's retreat a copule of hours ago. Although it would have been great if more guys had come, I still learned a whole lot. And it was my first over-night night at the Fort. It wasn't nearly as scary as it was made to sound. Though I also got to sleep in the Cook's cabin.

We held most of our sessions at the shelter. In the corner of the rafters was a nest of baby robins. After stacking a couple of pieces rickety furniture, I was finally high enough to get the photos. Their pretty creepy looking. But cool, too.

I'm in Wheeling visiting with my father. We were meeting for dinner at Hoss' Restaurant and I arrived a little earlier than him, so I decided to sit outside and say hello to everyone that walked by.

While fixing a salad tonight, I found a black down feather in the middle of a head of romaine lettuce. This is a very confusing thing to find in your lettuce.
