Adding redirects to handbooks as they are moved to wiki
Fix bug #453182 - Update profiles from 10.0 to 13.0
add initrd names, update kernel versions
Bug #402073 - Use a more vague expression when dealing with release-specific data, this has the potential to change every week...
Fix bug #396549 - Add section on advanced portage features
Update the Sparc handbook for the autobuilds. Major version bump for this release. Fixes bug 260403, bug 292726, and bug 234310.
no more sparc64 profiles, as the sparc team took out sparc32 and moved sparc64 to sparc. bug 251647
2008.0 is released
Consensus is to ditch the draft disclaimer
updates and bumps for beta2. note that only HPPA (well, and mips) is not doing a beta2, as they actually had a bug-free beta1. these commits may be a few hours early, but no worries, eh, mate?
release time. note that since this is beta1, the release dir and stage/media names have been adjusted accordingly. also, the handbooks are marked with a disclaimer=draft, so once the final is out, that will be removed and the release names adjusted. in the mean time, these are live. the beta is officially released. no, it's not april fools, but it is april 1st. :)
Made profile displayed by "ls -FGg /etc/make.profile" match default from stage3
2007.0 release is here; final changes and new docs
[19 21:33:20] <Weeve> the CFLAG that needs fixing in the example is "-mcpu=v9". It should be "-mcpu=ultrasparc".

#31877 - Add table with important groups users could/should be made member of
Add information about the 'userlocales' USE flag
Fix english grammer issues
Fix typo; also move my own name on top of the author listing since users tend to mail the top author for questions/feedback and daniel just forwards them on to me anyway -- plus that Im the main author anyway ~ Daniel, Chris and Jerry are the authors of the previous installation instructions from which the handbook emerged
Use Portage, capitalized P, wherever possible
#65107 - Added Portage-specific part to the Gentoo Handbook now that .51 is official; major version bump to 3.0

#61651 - Tell the user that there is a 15-partition limit for SCSI
#62053 - Default /etc/fstab does not work; inform users about this so they dont screw up their installation
#60806 - Add information on the various reasons why a package can be masked
#60176 - Adding SLOT and depclean to the Gentoo Handbook
#61033 DISTCC_DIR is automatically handled by portage.
#60175 - Various fixes to the Portage information
Okay, turning back to the "old" profile system. The thread on -dev@ doesn't give me a good feeling about cascading profiles (pvdabeel sais that it needs some updates, beejay sais it needs testing, solar sais the old one is obsoleted and should be removed, zhen sais an updated catalyst needs to be pushed). So this doesn't feel like "yes, switch them all over" just yet (especially since this is a arch-wide part of our installation instructions).
#59583 - Add CFLAGS for PPC64
#50773 - Use links2 only (to not confuse users too much) I've mailed gentoo-releng and asked if there were any architectures that don't have links2 (well, not exactly in those words, but arches that don't have it should have replyed anyway). Only beejay answered and said all LiveCDs have links2 ("at least x86 has") and none of the other arches replied. So I'm not going to ask it over and over again. I'll just commit and watch the bugs flow in :p They've had their chance.
Use bootstrap-cascade.sh instead of bootstrap; the old one is broken (did you know this?)
Fix the "sysklogd already provides virtual/logger" issue when choosing another system logger
#59680 - Adding instructions on reading the documentation while installing
We don't have to env-update && source /etc/profile after editing /mnt/gentoo/etc/make.conf's CHOST setting as we aren't inside our chrooted environment yet. The command itself is ran anyway right after chrooting, so this can be removed from the handbook. We had this previously when editing /etc/make.conf was inside the chrooted environment.
#59484: mirrorselect outputs html junk, grep on GENTOO_MIRRORS
Typo, label is #reboot, not #rebooting
#58200 - Add Gentoo/PPC64 Handbook #47705 - Use grub-install instead of grub's interactive shell Move bootloader instructions to the end of the installation instructions
Further #41658 fixes - the bug contained several bugreports
Fix conf.d/05gcc to env.d/05gcc
#50289 - Move mounting of /proc right before the chrooting. This also takes care of the errors users receive while unpacking the stage tarballs. Apparently logics is something the crowd wants less
Change name of "Software Availability" to "Working with Masked Packages"
#41658 - Inform the users about the various /etc/portage files
#57892 - Fix /etc/hosts for single-host environment
#50773 - Add a few phrazes to make it easier for the users to make a choice
#54222 - Use metalog as default example for loggers
#57330 - Make it more clear that using a portage snapshot from the CD is only required if you do a stage3 networkless installation
#56087 - make.conf.example is used for example values, not make.conf
#55656 - Update ccache instructions
#53272 - Reload environment variables after altering the CHOST variable
#58665 - 2004.2 stage3 contains the sysklogd logger
#57943 - USE="-java" isnt needed anymore
Small tune-up: if you use comments inside a code listing, use a # in front of them; some users tend to literally type over everything
Add <i>...</i> for the example md5sum command in hb-install-stage
Add gpg instructions for checking the validity of the ISOs
Desktop documentation is now separate
The md5sum checking command in the handbooks is an example for the x86 architecture while the other architectures use the same file (i.e. others see the same example). I made it prominent that this is merely an example.
Forgot to adjust version/date tags
Move over files from the draft/ directory. 2004.2 is released :)
#57290: ACCEPT_KEYWORDS on the command line is evil. Use /etc/portage/package.keywords instead
#57937: removed occurrences of xfs-sources, gaming-sources and [*] /dev/pts
Fixed typo (s/socalled/so-called/)
#56317: Mention the dhcpcd -HD option and throw in a note about -N as well
#56065: make kernel options easier to find in 2.4 & 2.6 kernels
#56333:use md5sum.exe to check MD5 on a W machine
Remove digital signature verification as the key used to sign the ISOs has been revoked and the digitale signature files have been removed from the mirrors
Remove noauto for /boot and tell the users a bit more about this phenomenon :p
#53032 - Move out burning instructions to the Gentoo FAQ. Keep the cdrecord/k3b instructions though
#53086 - Add user to the tty group
#51978 - Inform users with multiple network cards that there are multiple network cards... yes, silly, I know, but it makes sense ;p
#51612 - Make emerge-webrsync command less ambiguous
Filter out rogue line from mirrorselect that b0rks /etc/make.conf See #52264
#43778 - SYNC can only contain a single mirror
#49376 - Add cryptographic instructions
#49552 - Add note that certain warnings during the extraction of the stages can be ignored
#49831 - Use relative links for kernel source; some ebuilds break otherwise
#50049 - Make the stage3-<subarch> name more prominent, some users think it is not an example but a reallife command
#49994 - /mnt/cdrom is automatically created by baselayout
#50324 - Add information regarding --deep flag and dependency checking using emerge world
#50520 - Mention that the package cd is only useful with stage3+GRP installations
#50520 - Make it more prominent that stage1 and stage2 cannot be used for networkless installations and that stage3 does
#50279: fixed single occurrence of 'vcron', should be vixie-cron
You can only use a stage3 when doing a networkless installation
#49692 - Apparently users take jokes far too seriously
Using md5sum -c instead of just md5sum
GNUs GCC documentation URL has changed
2004.1 release. Moving docs from draft/ to correct space. Hopefully this goes without any issues *crosses fingers*
#47834 - Dont copy a symbolic link but the file it points to
Its arch/release, not release/arch
#35366 - Tell the user how to rebuild his system with new USE flags
Regarding portage update: can safely ignore it -> should ignore it
Only vixie-cron is available for networkless installations
msyslog isnt available for networkless installations, we should only list those. I added a sentence that others might be available as well so people dont submit bugreports against this :)
fix k3b fluency -- it was too confusing
Refrase on the defaults regarding the use of mirrorselect
Update hb-install-about to point to the releng page instead of just the x86 errata as this file is used by all architectures.
According to http://www.sparc-boot.org/usingsilo.html you only need to copy over the silo.conf file to /boot if / (where /etc/silo.conf resides) is on a different physical disk than where you want to install SILO on (and /boot is on the same disk). For instance, if you want to install SILO on /dev/sda but your "/" resides on /dev/sdb# then you should have your "/boot" somewhere on /dev/sda# and copy over /etc/silo.conf to /boot and run silo with the "-C" option. Still catching up? Just read the beforementioned URL :)
The use of "he/she" and "his/her" isn't recommended. It's ugly and better ways are known such as the use of "they" and "their" (even if it's not plural). Okay, English is a weird language, but I'm learning :) Thanks to Xavier for the information
Dont assume users are masculin
timeout for silo is measured in tenths of seconds, not seconds
#46548 - Add K3B burning instructions to the burning instructions
Update on handbook abstracts
Adding Gentoo/SPARC instructions atomically

The weekend's finds:
Sale #1 was a very clean, organized, estate sale. Clean + Organized = Overpriced. Everything, I mean EVERYTHING had a price tag on it. Boo. I prefer collecting all the things I like and then offering one price at the end. I figured this sale would be a bust... until I went to the basement. The estate worker that was stationed down there was so sweet and gave me some good deals. Here's the loot:
|2 turquoise trays
|Little wooden stool - to be painted
|Old suitcase
|Vintage wallpaper
|Corkboard. In process of being painted. More to come...
And here is one of my FAVORITE finds of the weekend. A bag FULL of vintage cards. They are soooo cute and are deserving of their own separate post. Stay tuned.
Sale #1 included a few other items like a small ladder, a milkglass bowl, and some yarn & twine.
Sale #2 was also an estate sale, but mostly everything was being sold in the garage so I'm not sure what to call it. Everything was pretty picked over (from what I overheard) but I still found a few gems, including this retro metal tea cart that was buried under some blankets.
|Tea cart. To be painted and madeover.
|Chein Flour & Sugar Tins
|Chein Coffee & Tea Tins
|Vintage Wilson Racket. Used similar ones in C's vintage sports room. They are great for decoration.
|Via MonDesirVintage
Sad end to Sale #2.
Sale #3 was a garage sale. There was no one there, the guy had to come out of the house to help me, and there wasn't that much stuff. Eh, figured this one might be a bust. I couldn't have been more wrong... this sale provided my other FAVORITE find of the weekend.
First let's start out with some of the random stuff I picked up:
|Rusty Metal Door Plate
|Metal Roll-Up Tape Measure
|House Numbers. Numbers like these are all over Pottery Barn and the like.
|Glass Jar
|Little Pink Apron
These are rolls of tickets (obviously) from the old Mayfield Theater in Little Italy. I honestly was just buying them to give to Connor to play with, but after finding out that the guy's grandfather used to own the theater and hearing a few of his amazing stories, these became 100x cooler! If anyone would like a few of these tickets, let me know, I'm happy to share.
And last but not least is a little something I plucked out of someone's trash. And just to clarify... I don't go driving around for the specific purpose of garbage picking. Not to say that I won't someday (what? I have to leave myself an opening...) I just happen to see this stuff while I'm out n' about. I do feel kinda weird taking stuff so I just tell myself I'm doing the world a favor by keeping it out of a landfill.
And that'll do it.

The family lore is that Grace was not strong, but I don't agree. She was her father's daughter and also a little of her mother. You can see what I mean as you read the following account of the events of the marriage.
Mrs. Grace Barclay recalled says:
I was married the 8th of September in Hudson, Wis., I was at home immediately prior to the marriage. Came back Oct. 1. I stayed in Minneapolis from the four to the fourteenth of October. From there I went to Grand Rapids, Minn. I stayed there a while and went out to a camp for a week, but kept rooms at the hotel all the time. My husband is superintendent for Backus in the Willow River country. We were near Cloquet when we heard of the murder of my Father. Mr. McDonald told me. I left Mr. McDonald at Cloquet. He went to the woods and I came home. He said he would drive across country and will be here tonight,…
My grandmother Grace was 16 years old when she married my grandfather Ronald. Grandfather Ronald was 32 years old at the time. I pondered this 16 year difference in their age when I saw the birth records at the Koochiching County Courthouse in International Falls, Minnesota. I was looking for my Dad's birth record and his siblings. I remember saying out loud incredulously: "Grandpa what were you thinking?"
Grace and Ronald did marry on September 8, 1898 in Hudson, St. Croix County, Wisconsin. Hudson is just across the state line between Minnesota and Wisconsin and not that far from Minneapolis/St. Paul. The distance is 29 miles by our freeway standards. The marriage record is quite odd and very plain. It has no identifying publication marks stating it is from Wisconsin. It almost looks like a scrap of paper. I do have the Wisconsin Vital records application and the envelope this Marriage record was returned to me in. You will have to take my word that the marriage was performed in Wisconsin.
In reviewing their marriage record we find the following information:
Ronald S. McDonald is the husband, his father is Archibald, his mother is Mary. Ronald's occupation is lumberman and his residence is given as Duluth. He was born in Canada. Grace's name is written "Gray A. Barclay." Her parents are George A. Barclay and Amarilla Spracklen. She was born in Pine River, MN. They married on Sept. 8, 1898 in Hudson, St. Croix Co. (I wrote in the state). They are white. The ceremony was Presbyterian. The witnesses were Mike Dorgan and Grace & Charles Burnley. The witnesses were from Hudson, St. Croix Co. The marriage was registered September 26, 1898 and the parties were sworn.
What do I think about this information? Well there are a few pieces of information that are very interesting. The first is that Ronald's place of residence is Duluth. I have suspected that he did live there. The other piece of information is the marriage ceremony was Presbyterian. Ronald was Catholic. Grace her religion was unknown. He basically married outside his faith. The witnesses are also intriguing because their names are unfamiliar to me. Their residence is given as Hudson?
My Aunt Miriam, didn't know when and where her parent's marriage took place, it has been solved. The lesson learned is that if you can't find it in the state they are residing in then try the neighboring states.
I mentioned that the marriages was in secret. This is true. Grace's father George Angus Barclay was not happy about it and threatened to disinherit her. He said an unkind comment about grandfather Ronald which I will not repeat here. Apparently, father and daughter made up in time.
For more information about this marriage see the blog: The Man Who Lived Airplanes. Go to the right side of this blog and you will find it listed under BJ's Family History Blogs. This other blog goes into detail about the Mac/McDonald side of the family. The marriage of my grandparents, Grace A. Barclay and Ronald S. McDonald united these two families. Their youngest son Keith would be my father.

We've repeatedly told you not to hack road signs, but you people never listen. Only this time you're professing your love for stuff like a "f**k taco," "b**l sack," and "mudkipz." Whatever those are.
WTOP news radio reports that a couple of crazy intarw3bz hax0rs have gotten hold of another road side construction side in Rosslyn, Virginia near the Key Bridge yesterday morning. Virginia Department of Transportation was not amused in the slightest, quickly turning off the sign, but not before local media was able to capture the sign in all its Pokeman internet meme glory.

Noted earlier in the week that the soundtrack to Aaja Nachle has exceeded my expectations by quite a bit. The film stars Madhuri Dixit, Kunal Kapoor and Akshaye Khanna. Given that it is a musical (or so it seems like), it was important for the film to have a good soundtrack that would have the Madhuri Dixit fans among us flock to watch this. She still is gorgeous and amazingly fit for her age, is she not?
Aaja Nachle the title track is good. It would have been a very good track if someone other than Sunidhi Chauhan had sung it. I am a big Sunidhi fan, but I know that semi-classical songs are not her strength.
Ishq Hua is a great song to coast to -- once again, Sonu Nigam and Shreya Ghosal are fantastic together. I have a feeling this song will feature in a lyrical genius post on this blog at some point in the near future. Another song featuring the two singers is Is Pal Main Hoon. Another very good track.
O Re Piya by Rahat Fateh Ali Khan will force you to think. Udne laga kyon, mann baanwara re, aaya kahaan se yeh hausla re? Good lyrics here too, in this semi-qawwali. Very good.
Sunidhi Chauhan and Shreya Ghosal do a very good job at Koi Pathar Se Na Maare Mere Deewane Ko. Yes, it is the same old-school poetic track. Lovely.
And on to perhaps the best track (my favorite) of the album: Soniye Mil ja Mele Mein. Madhuri Dixit starts out singing: Patang sung ud gaya bachpan, and is accompanied immediately in the song by Sukhwinder Singh and Sunidhi Chauhan. One of the best traditional festive songs in recent times, with an excellent underlying beat.
My least favorite tracks of the album are Dance with Me and Show me your Jalwa. They add noise to the otherwise very good soundtrack. That is why we have the skip track button, though. I tend not to negate the good work because of these two tracks.
Soundtrack Rating: *** (GOOD)
Addendum 3/28/2008
Upgrading this rating to a ***1/2 and a very good because it fits in incredibly well with the film. Quite fantastic.
Impressive soundtrack to Aaja Nachle
2 comments:
I was quite disappointed with the soundtrack actually.For a film based on dance and music ,one that also heralds MAdhuri's comeback yo should have expected nothing short of extra-ordinary.It isnt bad but not quite upto expectations.The promos also have been quite thanda.Madhuri for all her beauty and pedigree as a dancer looked stale when it comes to acting..perhaps I should not be judging from the promos but thats what I thought anyways

Maybe I was just expecting very little given the lack of promotion for this one (it seems like Yash Raj are still going all out for Laaga Chunari Mein Daag). The only promo I have seen is the one on their website, and it doesn't tell much, I agree.

In the Antelope Valley, on April 15th of 2010, there were two tea parties. They were at different locations and had different organizers.
It is hard to say if either of them were successful.
The first was a demonstration in a parking lot at a busy intersection. People held signs and waved banners. Observers honked their horns in encouragement as they went by. Due to all the good cheer it was considered a resounding success.
The second was a table at the post office that had after-hours service. A patron could go into the post office and buy a dated stamp that, since it had the date, guaranteed your income tax forms were mailed before midnight even though there were no postal employees there.
At the table, a very small group of people handed out reading material to the people in the very long line. This material included the Libertarian Party's Cut Taxes brochure, stuffed with political quizzes and with the Obama 1040 for entertainment value.
We had over 200 pamphlets, and we handed out all of them. People read them in line, and took them home as well. We actually got information into peoples' hands.
The protest ran from about 7 pm to 10 pm when we ran out of materials.
We were also very helpful to those who didn't know what was going on. We explained about the date-stamps, why people were waiting in line, about how if you simply dropped your mail in the box then it would be post-marked the next day. People were really appreciative of our help. It is somewhat ironic that we were helping people file their taxes on time, but it made a big difference to the people involved.
While nobody honked their horns at us, it was from our point of view a success, perhaps more of one than the larger rally that accomplished nothing. Lesson learned? If you want a Tea Party to mean something, and you know that the announced parties are Astroturf, go ahead and do your own Tea Party.

City News Service
Mayor Eric Garcetti's nominees for the Police Commission were confirmed on Friday August 30 by the Los Angeles City Council. Garcetti earlier last month announced he was replacing all but one member of the five-person board that oversees the Los Angeles Police Department. The council voted 14-0 to confirm the appointees, each of whom will serve five-year terms.
Among the newly confirmed commissioners is Steve Soboroff, developer of the Playa Vista housing community, one-time candidate for Los Angeles mayor and former recreation and parks commissioner. He was also an adviser to former Mayor Richard Riordan. The other newly confirmed commissioners are:
• Paula Madison, a former television news executive, reporter and partner in a Chicago-based investment firm;
• Kathleen Kim, a Loyola Law School professor who once served on a state anti-human-trafficking commission; and
• Sandra Figueroa-Villa, executive director of the family and youth resource center El Centro del Pueblo.
They join Robert Saltzman, a USC law professor who has been serving on the Police Commission since 2007.

Vladimir Putin's facial expressions range from straight-faced to granite-faced. On the rarest of occasions, say when he's snuggling a Bulgarian shepherd dog, he may indulge in a hint of a smile. But at this week's APEC conference, Putin flashed a grin so big and wide, it rendered his face nearly unrecognizable.
The source of his amusement? The APEC tradition of donning clothing from the host country and gathering on stage for a fashion show. This year's runway included Putin in bright green and Kerry in vivid purple. The colors may have clashed, but for once the U.S. and Russia appear to be getting along grandly.

Paper, plastic, or cloth bags? It is a decision all Californians need to make with a purchase. But now Californians who choose to consume plastic carryout bags have additional opportunities to ensure the bags are recycled. California has mandated, through the At-Store Recycling Program, that plastic carryout bag recycling drop-off bins be made available at all regulated supermarkets and large retail stores with a pharmacy.
Through this program, participating stores are required to place recycling bins in a readily accessible location for consumers, assure the collected bags are recycled, and provide reusable bags. Additionally, stores track the collection, transport, and recycling of plastic carryout bags and regulated manufacturers provide educational materials to assist in recycling (see requirements). To review the complete law and regulations, please visit Public Resources Code Division 30 Part 3 Section 42250 and California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Division 7, Chapter 4, Article 6.
As of July 2007, stores and bag manufacturers are implementing this program to reduce the plastic bag burden on the environment. A large amount of this plastic is accumulating in waterways and landscapes around the world, including the Pacific Ocean's Gyre (also known as the Great Pacific Garbage Patch).
Plastic bags are also accumulating in landfills. In the United States, an estimated 8.4 billion pounds of plastic bags, sacks, and wraps are consumed and disposed of yearly.* Although each plastic grocery and merchandise bag is composed of only a small amount of plastic, approximately 247 million pounds are annually disposed in California landfills.** Through increased accessibility of recycling and reusable bags at stores, this program aims to reduce the impact of plastic bag waste.
Model Report
To assist operators or designated reporting parties with the reporting requirements, a model report and series of data sheets have been developed. Using the model report and data sheets will ensure that the proper information is provided while streamlining the reporting process to meet the annual April 1 final filing date. These tools which can be submitted with your information include:
- Plastic Carryout Bag Purchasing Data: Model Sheet (CalRecycle 864-A, Fillable PDF | Word) (Updated 2/10/2016)
Additional compliance information is available.

A female student residing in Hale Aloha Mokihana reported that at about 5:50 a.m. Sunday, August 19, 2007, she was the victim of a sexual assault and burglary in her dormitory room.
She reported that an unknown male entered her room while she was sleeping. When she awoke she saw he had a pair of scissors that he pushed against her face causing a small cut. He then grabbed her inappropriately, thereby committing sexual assault. She screamed, fought back, and he ran out of the room.Subsequently, a check of the room revealed that her wallet and its contents were missing. HPD is actively investigating this incident. The victim was unable to see the suspect well enough to provide a description.

Back to the Superior Hiking Trail
I was able to get in my three Afterburn strength and three Afterburn cardio session in the first three days of the week, along with my regular ultra training. He suggests that one NOT complete the strength training on consecutive days, but since I'll be on the SHT Friday-Sunday I did it anyway. Plus the cardio. Feeling good.
Tomorrow I and 9 other friends are heading up the SHT for a 40 mile night run. Woohoo! Some are crewing, some are running, some of us are training for the 100 mile race in September. This will be a great training run.
Tonight I'll prepare peanut butter jelly sandwiches for aid, cut up oranges and cook up a mess of lean burger for our taco feast after the run.
Our plan is to begin running at 7 PM, through the night, into the day, hopefully ending by noon. We are renting a fabulous home in Tofte, right on the lake.
We'll be running the night section of the race, Highway 1 section through to Sugarloaf + some more. Approximately 40 miles. I'll have to get out my trustee Guide to the Superior Hiking Trail book. Ought to be one hell of an adventure!!
I looked through my guide and found a few notes. I have to take notes, I've run this section 3 or more times and I still forget the topography of each section. I wrote under Highway 1 to Co Rd 6: Section is 6.8 miles; steep, very challenging, first 4 miles REAL HARD then 2 last miles a bit easier, or at least walkable. Sawmill Dome is here, where John (Storkamp) crashed. (during out Beta 1 last year). Then toward the end John came flying through the woods. Not dead afterall.
Co Rd 6 to Finland Rec Center: 7.6 miles; this is where the CRAZY FRICKIN Beaver Dam is. Crazy boardwalk going across the fricken beaver dan. Unreal, thought I'd fall in, beautiful Section 13 cliffs, glacial erratic over 20 ft, buggy haven. Bugs were so bad I couldn't wait for another hill to climb and get out of hell. Felt like I was in the bowels of the earth.
During Beta I, Maria and me were the only two to make it the full 50.5 miles. It took us 15 1/2 hours. The others called it a day between 25-35 miles. We were pretty excited we finished. Alas, neither of us finished the 100 last September. Dang.
A month later, in August, Maria and I went up to run the next section, Finland to Temperance. We began at Finland at 5 AM and saw a zillion toads on the trail. It was crazy toady. We didn't have too many problems running the rest of the sections. Although it was daylight and we would be running this in the night during the race. Sonju lake area-all those damn roots is nothing like it is in the light like it is during the night. Holy shit. Whole different beast. It's hard. HARD to navigate through. The cedar trees have roots all over the top of the trail, it's hard to get through. The constant lifting of the legs becomes tiring, the constant pounding of root on foot becomes painful.
I'm sure excited to run the night section of the race during the night for training. It's all that I can think of to do in addition to last years training, and my Buck Hills, that I didn't do last year. Just another bit of insurance toward a finish.
Today the boys and I are heading off to St. Cloud to do some shopping. Tyler is beginning fall baseball season, Troy is beginning football and they both need gear. I could use a few things myself.
Oh, and I need to bake up some infamous Oreo Brownies.
Over and Out...
