The anatomy of a "big ol' manly pose"

That's exactly what I told Jonathan to strike for me next to a cannon in Gettysburg. I think he did a pretty good job despite the fact that his definitions might be off a tad.
For good measure, I had him take a picture of me next with the same airs.
He did a good job with the photography though.

To our gallant,brave boys.

Here is a montage of photos from the battlefields of Gettysburg chronicling most of the monuments dedicated to Vermont units who distinguished themselves there. I missed a couple but there are a total of 5 that I know of.

Yep, we were had.

Last Monday the Rutland area was hammered with a hurricane-like storm that ponded the region with high winds and rain.This is a couple of photos I took while "making the rounds" surveying the damage. We where out of power for almost 3 days.
The reason this post is so late because we just got back from Pa. and I hadn't had time to post before.

The power is finally back on , it's been off since early Monday morning, taking the cable with it we had no tv or internet as well. Needless to say, I'm very happy it's back on.

Speaking of YouTube, Mitt Romney has really started an add campaign on there including one of his own videos. It's genius really, what a way to get at a large portion of the population.

YouTube won't let me post videos on my blog, somehow the passwords don't match up.
Here is one of my favorite songs........

A Happy Birthday to my Father who turns 50 today!

Yes it's true, He is Risen.

After the Sabbath, at dawn on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to look at the tomb.

2There was a violent earthquake, for an angel of the Lord came down from heaven and, going to the tomb, rolled back the stone and sat on it.

3His appearance was like lightning, and his clothes were white as snow.

4The guards were so afraid of him that they shook and became like dead men.

5The angel said to the women, "Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified.

6He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay.
