I forgot to remove my pocket knife from my pocket when I had an mri. The tech noticed right away, or it would have been ripped out of my pants.

An evening road trip. It was to do some shopping, but anywhere you go in ND is a road trip. 2/7/26 #photography

To spite all the turmoil going on, there is still beauty in our surroundings. Hang in there.

Thanks. I've never pasted something into a post here before. There was a lot of great protest music in the 60s and 70s, and this came out about a decade before REO got huge.

Golden Country
YouTube video by REO Speedwagon - Topic Golden Country

If this doesn't work, I'll delete it right away. There is a song by REO Speedwagon from 1972, the year I graduated. I feel it is the most important song they did. It needs to be heard again. www.youtube.com/watch?v=oPog...

I decided to put all this in a threaded post. On 8/2/14, a group of us took our kids/grandkids to Storybook Land. It's a park built around children's nursery rhymes in Aberdeen, South Dakota. #photography

This has a similar vibe as a park in Aberdeen, South Dakota, called Storybook Land. I'll try to post some photos of it later today.

Depends on if that confidence is for any good outcome, or bad ones. I have total confidence in him delivering plenty of bad outcomes.
