  • Journal Entry – Snowbird – Sixth Day

    It was a nice day here with the temperature at 72 degrees and little to no winds, so it is short sleeve weather, again. Since I had a nice campsite, I thought that I should spend another day there, but the cold weather is coming south, so I drove to the Shiloh Battlefield Site this…

  • Journal Entry-Snowbird-Fifth Day

    I spent most of the day at Fort Donaldson along the west side of the Cumberland River. Once again, the amount of work that the Confederates put in to protect the fort is awesome. The amount of soil move for tenches and gun parapets is incredible. Sure they had like 16,000 solders, and an unknown…

  • Journal Entry – Snowbird – Forth Day

    I started this morning by touring Columbus-Belmont State Park. There was a large number of kiosks describing the Battle of Belmont on the Missouri side of the Mississippi River. Before the battle, the confederates had troops on both sides of the river. Since they were expecting US Grant to come at them from the north…

  • Journal Entry – Snowbird – Third Day

    Water puddles everywhere this morning, since the area has had rain. I walked over to Fort Massac this morning and looked around. There is a large story about the fort, or maybe I should stated the two forts. The second fort was built along side of the original fort site, since the original fort was…

  • Journal Entry – Snowbird – Second Day

    Today, I woke up with geese honking around my trailer, and I still had the beautiful view of the manmade lake. It was cloudy, with a breeze; so, I got out of there around 9:00 and expect a nice drive for today. But, some time after I got on the interstate, the winds came up…

  • Journal Entry – First Day – Snowbird

    Although this is not popular with me, I am becoming a snowbird this year. I find it sad, since I enjoy all four seasons, except for muddy April. Without my new home being built, I am heading south. Or, at least far enough south where I can feel comfortable in my trailer. When the temperature…

  • Journal Entry – US Air Force Band

    What an evening? Can anyone believe that the US Air Force Band was playing in the preforming arts building on the UW-W campus on Veterans Day? Strictly unbelievable. By observing the talent of these airmen and noncommissioned officers (NCOS), any third world country would know that they do not stand a chance against our military.…

  • Journal Entry – The Woke People Losing Power

    It was a windy day here today, with the high of 77 degrees. Not too bad. Dad has a huge number of walnuts lying around his yard. As I was walking over them, they would roll under my boot and start to remove the husk off to the nut, so I looked on the web…

  • Deflection-Women’s National Basketball League – Caitlin Clark II

    After a friend of mine read this essay, he commented back that this is Biblical. This caught me by surprise. I had no idea that I was writing something Biblical. Caitlin Clark standing up to the same aggression as Jesus. This makes for a real essay. If we look at this easy Biblically, Caitlin is…
