A Father's Love....

A son asked his father, 'Dad, will you take part in a marathon with me?'

The father who, despite having a heart condition, says 'Yes'. They went on to cmplete the marathon together.
Father and son went on to join other marathons, the father always saying 'Yes' to his son's request of going through the race together.
One day, the son asked his father, 'Dad, let's join the Ironman together.' To which, his father said 'Yes' too.
For those who didn't know, Ironman is the toughest triathlon ever. The race encompasses three endurance events of a 2.4 mile (3.86 kilometer) ocean swim, followed by a 112 mile (180.2 kilometer) bike ride, and ending with a 26.2 mile
(42.195 kilometer) marathon along the coast of the Big Island .


Father and son went on to complete the race together.

(I suggest you get a kleenex before watching.....)

Obama.....The Movie

This year's presidential election is probably the most important one I have ever seen. I am a Republican and will vote for McCain whole heartily. I believe Senator McCain is the one candidate that believes in this country and ALL the citizens..not one more than the other. He will work to keep this country safe and secure as it has been since the devastation of 2001. McCain will work to unite the country, as presented by his past actions, unlike Obama. McCain said today that he wants to lift the ban on offshore drilling and allow those states involved to receive a larger share of the royalties, which would put more money into the shrinking budget. Drill Here, Drill Now...it's time.

It is my earnest plea that if you are voting democrat but are unsure of your vote, please do your research, as I have, on Obama. If you know of others, please encourage them also. Obama is not the person he is portraying to the country. He has very, VERY troubled associations with politicians & other people not only in this country but others. I believe that the truth will be coming out before the November election, we can only hope. I found this video online...if you find it troubling, then you know why this man should not be elected.

Maggie

This is Laura's kitty and she is so precious.

Pepper has been very jealous since the new kid in the house showed up. She's starting to come around...slowly.

School is out!!!

Time for relaxation, spending time with family & friends, finishing projects and getting this blog updated. I've been following the political scene and will post about that later. As I've said before I'm a Republican and seeing people falling for Obama & believing the media hype and totally ignoring his history & the people he has put his trust in up to 20 years & more is very disturbing. But later....

Have a good evening...
