things I wanted to do.

So here are some pictures I took a week ago.

One COLD day !!!!!!!

Down in AZ

2009-01-18T14:03:00.014-05:00

So I was wrong.

I stayed in AZ ( where it was 70 and sunshine :) longer then I had planned.

So here I am in the COLD state of MI wishing I was still in AZ.

The conference was a lot of fun and I learned so much from it.
Here are some of the more artistic photos.

I'll try to post some of the things I did down there on the family blog.

Heading Down South Again

2009-01-03T13:55:00.004-05:00

...not to IL but AZ this time.

I'm planing to leave on Monday if the flights are open.

So once again I do not know when I'll be back.

(I think some time after the 13th.)

See you then.

Some more pictures from IL

This is a picture (remotely) taken at a river near their house.

The Clark property

In the back yard beyond the fence there are hedge apple trees.

A statue of Abe Lincoln at a park.

Seeing as my Dad stole the first picture for the family blog

(the one I was going to post on MY blog )

you will just have these three.

2008-12-09T13:07:00.018-05:00

I think I should post seeing that I've been back for a week.:)

While I was down there I learned alot about studio work

(meaning that was what occupied most of my time).

When we did get extra time we went to some historical spots

in Springfield.

...like the Old Illinois State Capitol

And the New Capitol

But I did not get much more than that because

I went there to learn and not to teach.

Heading Down South on Wednesday...

2008-11-10T20:45:00.003-05:00

Hey,
You probably will not see much of anything for
awhile because of the above comment.
I do not know when I'll be heading back
so when you see my smiling face I'll post. :)

I got this in an email and thought it was pretty funny. I think he has some good points.

The article below was written by syndicated columnist, Thomas Sowell, a black man. He wrote it in a humorous way this past week in a column titled 'Random Thoughts' and published it in newspapers nationally, so maybe you've already seen it. If not, be my guest:

Senator John McCain could never convince me to vote for him. Only Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama can cause me to vote for McCain.After long and serious thought, I have decided to endorse Senator John McCain for President.I have always voted for the person and have not voted for anyone because some political party was telling me who I should vote for.We all know the choices by now and, that said, I do believe that the process of selecting a chief executive is deeply flawed. The words 'money' and 'special interests' come to mind, among many others.Here's the way I see it:Barack Obama, you are a fine public speaker. You are also an extremely liberal Senator from the State of Illinois , which has a long and rich history of political corruption of the first magnitude. You are indeed a child of that system.You have finally insulted my intelligence far beyond my capacity to tolerate your insults. It has nothing at all to do with your skin color. As a matter of fact, it would be so COOL to finally have an African-American for President. What a great statement that would be to the entire world that we are indeed the greatest country on earth!But, unfortunately, General Colin Powell is not running, and YOU are NOT the man for this job!Barack baby, you want me to believe that you have never heard the sermons of your own pastor, the Right Reverend 'God Damn America' Jeremiah Wright. It is a matter of record that this has been your church for over 20 years. It is a matter of record that you were married there by this very pastor, and that your children were baptized there.The good Reverend saw fit to visit Khadafy in Libya with you and to give a lifetime achievement award to Louis Farrakhan, of all people.We have all now seen excerpts of his sermons all over the airwaves by now. And you have publicly stated that this man IS your 'spiritual mentor.'BUT, your pastor is NOT the reason I am NOT voting for you. His words were disturbing enough, but it is your own HUGE church congregation, seen jumping, hooting and howling to his words in the background that disturb me the most. And please don't tell me you attended church there and never once heard a 'discouraging word' in the 20 years you attended there. Don't tell me, that in addition to the good reverend, that you are now not having anything to do with all those other people seen hooting and howling out in the audience in the background of his fiery tirades. Even Oprah Winfrey got disgusted and walked out on your campaign. I am no Oprah fan, but still she did the right thing.Now you look me in the eye and ask me to believe that you never heard such language in all the years you attended there! This is like me telling you that I attended dozens of Klan rallies and never once heard the 'N' word. Yep. And Bill Clinton 'did not inhale'.Yes, Mr. Obama, we all have friends who have said stupid things that embarrassed us, but NOW you have asked me to believe something that is so incredibly stupid that you are telling me that I am just stupid enough to believe you. THAT is the main reason that I will never vote for you.I am deeply sorry, that in a country teeming with enormously talented African Americans who would make a good President, that the political system has chosen YOU. You are a pathetic and plastic excuse for an American, who will not even salute the Flag during the Pledge of Allegiance. God forbid you ever get near the Oval Office.Which leaves us with Senator John McCain.John, you are a flawed man. You are a bit old, a bit looney, and you have a notoriously bad temper. This perfectly qualifies you, in my humble opinion, to lead us for the next eight years. I WANT your trembling hand on the nuclear buttonThink about it.We have Kim Jong IL, Chavez and Ahmadenijad all running around like lunatics, threatening America and threatening to plunge the world into nuclear Armageddon. We have Putin and the Chinese blustering and rattling their sabers at us. I want John McCain in the Oval Office and I want him to be really ticked off at all these other nut jobs around the planet.John, once you are elected, I want you to go into the Oval Office and throw one of your perfect FITS. Jump up and down and throw something through a plate glass window. Rip the drapes down and foam at the mouth a bit. And I want the whole thing on camera so that Ahmadinejad can see it I want ALL of these 'world leaders' to lay awake at night and to break out in a cold sweat every time they think of messing with the United States of America .I want the nuclear button sitting right next to the alarm clock on your night stand. I want pictures of this to be sent to Iran , Russia , China , Venezuela , Cuba , Libya , Syria , Pakistan , and those other dopes in the sheets, the Saudis.On the domestic front, poor John did try and reach across the aisle to the opposition in a desperate effort to compromise and to get the Congress to do something. You may not agree with his efforts, but at least he TRIED. For all his efforts, all he got handed to him was his head in a basket. The liberals are ticked at him and the conservatives are ticked at him. Just my kinda guy.I did predict that John will select Senator Joe Lieberman as his running mate, however Palin is a Good choice. I wanted a Jew whose memory of the Holocaust is still fresh in his mind and who is royally ticked off at all of these towel-headed morons in the Middle East to be the next in line if something should happen to John. Vice President Palin. One heartbeat from the Oval Office.Finally. John McCain knows on a most personal level what it is to suffer horrible torture for years and to see others die, right in front of you, for their love of America When you ask him about it, he will tell you that what he did was 'nothing special. ' Even more incredibly, he states that ANY American who truly loves his country would do exactly the same as he did in that situation. You and I will have a hard time believing that, but the real point is that John McCain believes that about the 'average American,' and that, dear friends and neighbors, is why I will cast my one poor ballot for on election day for John McCain -- warts and all.'

WoooooHooooooo

Homeschool Family Day at the Capitol

2008-04-11T10:26:00.000-04:00

On Wednesday we (Bret, Drew, James and I)

went with some friends to the Michigan capital in Lansing.

The Capitol from Rep. Booher's office (on the 13th floor)

A pillar on the first floor
And what are they doing at the Senator's desk......?

.......Oh, they are raising taxes!!

I thought this was a neat chandelier.

During the speaking, some people (I won't name their names)

just couldn't seem to stay awake........ ......... while others where maybe a little too awake!
Mr. Speaker of the house

"Oh, hello"
The dome with the constellations of the Northern Hemisphere in the middle
The date the Capitol was built

Another angle of the Capitol
Rep. Booher
A stainless steel elevator we took to see Rep. Booher's office
Then we walked with him to the Capitol

Are they working?.........NO!!!........oh. they are Represenatives, I forgot.

The group on the Capitol steps:

Back row: me, Drew, Josiah Fairlamb, Bret , James

Second row: Lydia Fairlamb, Timothy Fairlamb, Hannah Elliot,

Stephen Fairlamb, Rachel Roberson

Front: Anna Truitt, Bethany Townsend, Hannah Templeton

"Guidance counselors": Mr. Fairlamb and Pastor Ben Townsend

On the way home some people were really tired;

getting up at 2:45 A.M. is not normal for them. Hannah had an earache from everyone talking.....
.......about everything from camera L.C.D. screens to symbolism.

Thank you Mr. Fairlamb for driving us down and back.

W.M.R.
