| Thinking a lot about a lot of things lately. I have a crappy job at the moment, I'm a trucker flipping burgers, sickens me. Maybe its just that I can't stand fast-food and the thought of people eating what it is. Maybe its just that I really miss having a motorcycle and the loss of the freedom I had become so familiar with.
On the other hand, I am now married to the lady of my dreams, and while I long for the road I know that I will not find her on the back of a motorcycle. So I think, wrangler, used. Something to escape now and then the realities of a boring existence unable to be free as I once was.
It started me thinking.
How it must be to be blind, but I was once engaged to a blind lady in a wheelchair and we had all sorts of fun (clean fun) really people, get your heads out of the gutters.
How can one or two improve on the lives of others with very little or no money (because that is always the reason why people don't) what do we have that can be shared? Time, resources, ART, I love -Love Art. Maybe going down a river in a kayak or canoe, a safe environment yet filled with sounds and sunlight. Helping others find something they truly love. Who can go wrong in the great outdoors?
A garden of Eden, to some could just be a place where others don't look at them and only see their disabilities, faults or are blind to the differences that in one way or another we all have and in small ways share.

| A lot has been going on.
1. Married a lady this year.
2. Sold my motorcycle.
To a man named George, nice guy if a little impatient, can't say I would not be under the same circumstances.
3. Went to Disney World.
The First day I somehow picked up a "wire" in my foot that had to be taken out with something no sharper than a toothpick - I'm not kidding. The 2nd day - well lets just say something not good happened almost everyday, leading up to where I almost died on the way back. I had climbed out from under debt with the sale of my bike, just covering what I owed on its loan - trying to pass a blessing on to someone else. Well seems like something bad is always following me around.
4. Almost died, and now have huge hospital bills. See Above too.
I lost consciousness a few times on the way to the hospital, apparently my niece can drive really good, and I love her to death, because I told her I did every time I regained any level of awareness at all.
5. Starting a business.
I went back to the courthouse and was told that I couldn't get my business license until I get my LLC, stuff.
Well I'll have to finish this later, as the weather is about to get bad (lightning) but I will finish it.

| Its been a while sense I have posted anything, seems like everything has been a little crazy lately.
I've traveled over 10,000 miles in the last couple of months, and seen a lot of the country. I am with a pretty girl, who is super awesome.
I have a bunch of photos to post to, and soon I will find the time to do that

| I just uploaded a video of a Black Powder Cannon or howitzer.. Black Powder (Muzzle Loading) cannons of this sort are legal.
However sense you really should know what your doing, and have a welder, you should not bother trying to make your own, yep thats right this is my disclaimer. Don't Do it, it's not as fun as it looks, it's expensive to make and shoot, and you can get seriously hurt or killed if you don't know what your doing, Don't Do It !!!
A few of ya'll have been getting on my case to post a video of it firing, so now you can see it in action, well going off. There was a slight problem when loading the ball (it got stuck) and we weren't sure it wasn't going to blow up, so the camera was in a fixed location and we were behind lots of cover.
I'd love to hear your idea's on future projects, but there are several laws that most people just don't seem to take into consideration. Also if you tell me something that is unheard of, and it works you could sue me for using your idea without permission, so - Please don't suggest anything..
