Guilty Pleasure?
Permalink | July 31, 2006 by John in Uncategorized
I have a confession to make. When I was studying graphic design at Colorado State, I was addicted to The Joy of Painting. I felt it was a guilty pleasure because I was pursuing a fine art degree and fine artists are supposed to look down on Bob, aren’t they? I only took one painting class, freshman level, and hated it. I was just amazed at how easily Bob could created those incredible landscapes. It was a bonus that his voice was mesmerizing.

The Idaho, Um, Reconnoiter?

Yep, the Idaho Invasion 2006 was HUGE…
Unfortunately, Hell’s Canyon was closed due to fires, so on Saturday we ran down to Boise instead.
Updated: My total miles for the Idaho trip is right around 1400 (2300 total for the two weekends). It was 610 miles from my house to the motel in Cambridge, via Coeur D’Alene. I found very little about Idaho I didn’t like. I’d consider moving if they didn’t have a sales tax. Mostly what I liked about it over Montana was a more temperate climate; Montana is so arrid.

Off to Cambridge, Idaho, tomorrow morning by way of Coeur D’Alene. My friends are promising that it’s a beautiful scenery and twisty roads, but I’m skeptical (that is, once we’re down there - I know much of the way down is nice). I missed the gathering last year due to my broken drive belt (and other personal factors). I hope to swing by Cascade, Idaho, the location of last year’s meeting.

Solar LED Address Numbers

I think I linked to these a while ago but I forgot about them. These are the address numbers I want for my house. But at $20 apiece, $80 total, I can wait a bit longer.
