It's interesting how we tend to de-humanize the Internet these days. But, there are real people out there and this we can't forget..

The Rose
Well, I watched The Rose staring Bette Midler last night. Memories... It was many years ago that I last saw it and it is still so great and so sad. I had forgotten the influence that her her manager had on her and all that he was looking out for was himself and the ever loving dollar, at her expence.
Here's Bette singing the song.

The new addition
So, I haven't been blogging much lately. Here's the reason... We're putting an addition on our house and it's consuming all of my time. In the evening, I'm just plain tuckered out and need to rest for the next day.. :-(
Here is where it started. This metal shed had caved in this winter due to the heavy snow.. So I had to remove the shed. What fun that was in the sweltering heat, cutting it up with a sawsall (or however you spell that).
And then the tree had to come down, without hitting the house. Again, in the sweltering heat. :-(
So, this is where it is now. It's moving up. :-) Of course, notice how neat and clean our front yard is being kept during all this.
Oh and did I mention that we're have a new heating/cooling system put in the house, including all new ductwork. Such that the inside looks pretty much like the outside. My wife loves it, NOT.
