We have kids walking around this week saying, "Krikey!" You have to laugh how he brought that word to the fore-front.

Yesterday as I was leaving school, something stirred the geese that were in the pond, near our school. Over a 100 geese took off and filled the sky.

I watched the last of them form up and head to the cornfields south of our school. (It was around 5:00 pm)

Being the last one to leave our school, it was a pleasure to just watch the geese in solitude.

That's just it!
For all those who grouse,
few live life with as much joy and enthusiasm.

I mean, he was always like a kid waking up on Christmas morning with a Pony (or a camel, or a koala, or a.....)

Wipe away those tears, lassie.

He died loved what he was doing.

What is that old saying from Braveheart? "Some men never really live?"

looks like he was one that loved what he did, and lived a full life.

My gosh, that's a strong kid!

I lost my dad when I was two years older than she. She's carrying a legacy!

I'm watching it right now.

Steve's daughter Bindi will have her own show in 20 years.
