My neighbor’s son, Jim, is biking to Alaska to raise money for cancer research. His blog is http://pedalingforpennies.info/. He has good reason to want to beat cancer, since his dad died from it. Wally was such a nice guy. He got a snowthrower attachment for his Kubota tractor, and would blow out our driveway with it. Just a sweetheart!

Jim is leaving Friday, and today a Kare 11 TV news reporter came out to interview him and his mom. I recorded it and posted it on youtube.

I also posted a video of Suka and I exercising on the exercise bike.

I’ve really been enjoying the Baltimore Orioles,

 and I had a Scarlet Tanager! They are such striking birds.
