Maybe this is my life...

Ok, I was going through some pictures that I took a few weeks back. For this picture, I was walking into the kitchen and noticed a frog on our back door glass. Sherri thinks that I am weird, because the first thing that came to my mind was what a neat picture. At any minute the frog appeared that he was about to jump. Fortunately, I was able to get quite a few pictures prior to the escape. Makes me come to the realization that most of my pictures come from spur-of-the-moment boredom (see below)...

In the details

It is amazing what you can find in the details. I was looking through some pictures from an airshow in Oshkosh that I went to a couple of years ago. I found a few pictures to post, but this one really caught my eye (ha ha)... I cropped the rest of the airplane out of the picture to just focus on the image painted on the side. If you stare at the bottom part of the eye, the image jumps out at you and it appears that the skin is peeling back.

Coffee Makers...

So the coffee maker (or the more technically correct term is Super Automatic Expresso Machine) on the left is my most recent purchase. There is such a long story and life-lesson associated with this machine. For those in my Sunday School class, you know it all too well (after three well-intentioned lessons). Being a coffee snob, this was my dream machine (the best part of waking up is NOT Folgers in MY cup). I have been looking at it for over 2 years, just couldn't seem to justify buying such an expensive machine for coffee!

Now, the coffee maker on the right is Sherri's coffee maker. It does exactly as she wants; it makes coffee. $49.99 and she is proud of it! She loves the smell of her Folgers brewing in the morning.

Time will tell if Sherri will ever completely come over to my side of the counter, but for now we have to maintain two coffee makers... If this is our biggest disagreement, I am a fortunate man!

The Man...

Now this is something that I would love to buy and bring home for our backyard... However, I have been married to Sherri long enough to know that this would not be a good idea. There are certain things that you just know that are not worth an argument (unlike a very expensive coffee maker). You can spot these guys at a gift/coffee shop in Childress America along Highway 287, almost right in the middle of town. The coffee shop serves Seattle's Best Coffee. I would consider this some of the best coffee out there, even better than Starbucks... Ok, so back to the picture. There are several of the little guys tied to the posts, just waiting on someone like me (or you) to come along and take them home. I had to settle for the picture. :( Let me know if you travel through Childress America and see them...
