Somewhere between Egypt and Canaan

Anyone that has been to our house will remember the field behind our property, with the 100-year-old barn, the tall concrete silo, and the grazing cows.

Well, they are no more. The field is still there, but it is now filled with the rubbish left behind when a barn and silo are destroyed. Not nearly as nice a view, I’m afraid, though perhaps we’ll have fewer flies.

The local Lions club owns the property, and they are apparently planning to build a community center of some sort. Not as nice as a park, but certainly nicer than a trailer park, so I am trying to withhold both optimism and pessimism and merely wait to see what happens.

The Seahawks played a good game on Superbowl Sunday, but they didn't have enough to win. A number of questionable calls by the referees didn't help, either. But, it was fun to have a team to really root for, and fun to hang out with friends for the big game. Did the Seahawks make a fan out of me? Maybe I'll actually watch their first game of the next season...
