Random Stuff

It's late Friday night early Saturday morning and I just got home from playing Bunko with the girls.
On the way home I stopped to see a friend at a local Real Estate office who is burning the Midnight Oil working on marketing strategies in this impossible market.
It was nice to see her and catch up on each others lives, I haven't seen her since before the holidays.
When I got home the 9 year old had two of his buddies over to spend the night.
They are hard at playing 'Rock Band', and doing really well.
I find it so funny that they all run around singing songs that I grew up listening to.
However, it was hard to find out all of the lyrics to many of the songs when I was growing up, now with games like this the lyrics fly across the screen, and what I have quickly realized is how suggestive so many of these are.
I had just not ever really ever given any thought to Journey's 'Anyway you Want It' until I heard the 9 year old singing it!

I was checking my email and a friend that we met in Jackson Hole sent us a link to his new website. His name is Grover Radcliffe and he lives in Jackson and is a retired fellow who spends his time out in nature taking photographs of what he sees. Which is always absolutely beautiful.
When he is not out roaming the wild blue yonder he is warming himself by the fire in the lobby of the Trapper Inn on Cache Street in Downtown Jackson. From his leather chair he offers touring advice to hikers and photographers, tells great stories of his adventures and befriends everyone who walks through the door.
Dressed in Safari garb with a big camera around his neck he totally fits the part, and if the Trapper Inn doesn't have him on staff, they should.
Yes, he enjoys the free coffee and breakfast the Inn provides to his guests every morn, but he offers the warmth and fellowship that so many Inn's lack.
Anyway here is the link to his website http://www.mywyhomingpics.com/about.html
If you have never been to Wyoming or Jackson Hole you have to put it on your 'bucket list'. It is the place where everything you have ever seen in western wilderness is. I hope you enjoy Grover as much as we did.

Well it is really too late for decent people to be up, so I'm calling it a night.
