At Prairie Garden Trust, they have benches all along the short trails. You can enjoy the view from an overlook or sit by a pond and enjoy the sounds of nature. This was a great place to stretch our legs and determine what direction to go next. Just be sure to spray for ticks first.

Located in Gwangalli, Busan - The suspension bridge is not just an impressive structure in the daylight, but at night, it lights up and becomes a stunning attraction seen all around the area.

Our expansion project continues! Some beautiful landscaping is shaping up. Concrete steps are being poured for what will be our loading dock, and our new entrance is set to be on the opposite side of the building, with a walkway right next to the accessible parking signs.

ADA accessible parking signs are in the process of being installed. Color photo depicts a new construction of a small, one-story building. The building is blue, as is the sky.

So I've got l the first two weeks of November off. My mother just called whether I'd be interested in a couple of days with my dad in Dublin during that time. Ofcourse I do. So it looks like we're going from the 3rd untill the 8th. I will be looking for stuff to do myself, but am open to suggestions. So if any of you out there have any...

And yes that means I'll come home right in time for Desertbus for Hope. It's going to be a good two weeks.

Did you know that the green mattress covers on board the USS Albacore served multiple purposes?

These covers were fire-resistant. A submariner's greatest fear while submerged is a fire, but these covers shielded the mattresses from igniting. The green covers also prevented the mattresses from absorbing the moisture in the air which helped to protect the bedding.
