Solar flare this morning

It's the mushroom cloud looking thingy at the 9 to 10 o'clock position. Looks very cool animated. Well, hot actually.

Hey, NBC. Don't lie to us that you are having "technical problems" with giving us the option of viewing the opening ceremonies live. Just admit that you just want to maximize your ratings this evening. I can understand and respect that a lot more tha

Ted's fun today

Today I had the rare privilege of seeing my older son shatter a toilet by hurling a hatchet at it. Fortunately, this happened at the county dump.

Joplin one year anniversary

I thought this before and after video is worth sharing today on the 1st anniversary of the Joplin tornado. I will never forget watching the radar on my iPhone as this tragedy was unfolding.

Thoughts and prayers to those grieving, rebuilding, and still dealing with the trauma.

The very exclusive cigar club above Landini's in Alexandria. Impressive humidor. Guess it should be for a $10K initiation fee.

Sarah thought she'd make a big batch today with the rest of our goat milk. It's all canned now. I have a cool wife.

Seems like the weekend still

I'm off today and all the kidlets are home sick. Not a bad deal, really.

Too many chasers - part 2

Too many storm chasers!

And these are only the chasers registered with SpotterNetwork! This likely was a small minority of all the chasers out that day.

RT @ChaserTV: Here is the Spotter Network "Ant Cam" for the 4/14/12 outbreak. Pretty impressive amount of chasers out!

Will be taking a hiatus from social networking activities like Facebook, etc. Talk to you again after Easter, Lord willing!

Fresh milk

Lactose intolerant people can drink fresh milk because the good enzymes aren't killed by pasteurization. This is one of the reasons we are now co-owners of a cow so we can legally drink raw milk from our own animal.

Been an interesting weekend

Friday night - carnival fundraiser at Breton Downs Elementary School. Very fun, but I forgot how much crowds wear me out.

Saturday afternoon - visit to a farm in Byron Center - we now own part of a cow (for milk) and soon will have a goat share too!

Saturday night - watched "Mars Needs Moms!" with the kids on Netflix. I can see why it flopped :)

Sunday - stayed home with a sick Lyndon in the morning while everyone else went to church

Sunday afternoon - went for a run in the beautiful sunshine and realized that I haven't given myself any time to listen to God!

Coming right up - dinner with my in-laws' care group, then baby-sitting all the kids.

Hope it's been a great weekend for you! Blessings.

Lovely lake effect snow all day

See the full gallery on Posterous

The relatively small amount of wet heavy snow preceding the current fluffy lake effect stuff has allowed nice accumulations on branches, wires, etc.

Good thing the snow isn't that heavy overall and that the winds aren't too strong. Been very interesting on dual pol radar too!
