….. At least to you, and maybe it will be of interest to others in our family.

I just watched the last part of a loooong (http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/earth/australia-first-years.html) trip through Oz. No wonder they are such an odd lot. :rofl: Really,…………. Very interesting and an outstanding four-part presentation. Check it out :nod:



And post some links of things you find especially interesting. :)

Ever dream about chucking it all and being a lighthouse keeper? Best view ever? Right on the water?

Rose Island Lighthouse (http://www.roseislandlighthouse.org/keeper_options.html) has a program that enables you to stay there and be the one in charge! I think that would be awesome!

We're lucky that when they changed the definition of planet that they didn't require that to be a planet, there must be at least 5 moons orbiting the body. Pluto would be in (it has 5) and Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars would be out.

Boy, that was lucky for us. :)

Last year it was so dry and this year ... the fields are so wet and saturated, the farmers are having trouble getting their crops planted. :(

As far as I can tell, the only problem would be that their partner would be a Cheeseweed-eater. Other than that...:confused:

That sounds like a pretty good contract. Local business helping out another local business. Are they going to buy from you and mark up or sell on consignment?

My 101 year old mother-in-law passed away this morning at 8:30 am. We have been waiting over a week while she was in hospice. My husband is so relieved that her long suffering has finally ended and now she is up in Heaven trying to organize God's life. :)

This will be my first funeral I have ever attended. That is a little strange at my age and I'm certainly not looking forward to it, but it will be something interesting to experience.

A coworker of mine was talking about this, so I looked up the video. I found it thought provoking to say the least.
