The Great American Bacon Race!

by Rick | Sat Aug 1, 2015 | All (Home), Health, Runkeeper | 0 Comments

Fun event, but a little bit pricey. I guess they need to cover the cost of giving away bacon at two water/bacon stations during the run, and at the bacon party afterwards. Oh, and also pay for the big honkin' heavy bacon finisher medallions.

We DID move!

We finally moved from the house in Meeker , we stayed there wishing we had something larger for almost 6 years. Although we put a lot into it by adding outbuildings and recently built a barn/shop, it has always not quite met our needs somehow. The land was hilly,...

This holiday season has started. The weather here in Delta is just about perfect for fall, crisp with a chill that reminds you of what is on the way. I'm going into this season with anticipation of Christmas without hospitals, in good health. I am so grateful to...

This image is not Photoshopped. Large sinkholes devour Guatemala City. A giant sinkhole larger than a street intersection has swallowed a three-story building and a house in Guatemala, as residents reel from a storm that has killed at least 146 people across Central...

Taken sometime in fall of 1968 is my best guess. Joanne (first wife) and I met at UM College Park. The Zonker raced at Capitol Raceway and posted high twelves.

We all had a great meal the other night. Appetizers of shrimp and scallops followed by ribs. Sitting by the fire is a tradition that never fails to bring out good conversation and warm feelings.

Well, a lot has happened since my last post. The Fudgey Duck closed rather quickly, primarily due to landlord/tennant problems. Its just as well, I'm happy to not have a business to keep Sandi away from home every day. We may re-visit it later, but...

Well, we completed our move from Bakersfield to Meeker on November 1, 2001. Everyone arrived safely and the people, dogs and horses are all fine. We live about 3 miles outside of town on County Road 4, on the mesa overlooking Meeker and the White River...
