WOW! Another nice day here; hot and sunny. Rode the bike over to Big Lake and even saw several other folks on the bike trail!!
Here is Canon dropping the ball for me to throw for him; we are at the edge of the woods in front of the house.
And a photo of the swamp ...
Well it is Memorial Day weekend and most folks have tomorrow off; let's all remember WHY we have the day off!!
Sue is visiting Fred, Fran and siblings this week in Binghamton.
Well this was a good weekend. Did the show and tell at WHS on Friday and no work for Saturday or Sunday. I have been getting a new website setup for that has been fun and learning alot there.
The weather was great! Canon and crew got to play around the house with all the bright sun. Rode the bike over to Big Lake today; Sue is going to take it into town tomorrow, my de-railer needs a bit of work.
Well today I took off work and headed to WHS with Sue. She had arranged for me to talk with six of the health classes about "choices" and how that may not matter tomorrow but that they could matter later.
I talked about having diabetes, a kidney transplant, being legally blind, etc. Also told them that I might not have as many or as severe issues had I taken better care of my blood sugar when I was their age.
The two points that I think made the largest impact were the fact that I do not drive. They are all ready to get the drivers license. The other was the fact that if they choose to not get any exercise and choose to eat too much than they may be choosing to get type II diabetes and may bo choosing to get a number of the same troubles that I have.
It was amazing about many kids raised their hands when asked about diabetes in their family. Well over half.
Hoping at least a few of them will consider making better choices that sitting in front of the TV and eating chips/cookies all night!!
Last Novermber I lost my camera. I was about to go to the UK and wanted a camera to take photos of Baptiste and London.
The other day Sue found the camera while raking. I took out the battery,recharged and it works. If you are not using a Canon, why?
here is a photo of my "Canon"
