How not to set up a tarp on a camping trip…
Rain and camping are a bad combination. So, it’s important to set your tarp up properly.
Attached are 2 pictures of what worked for us on Memorial Day weekend. However, this is NOT a recommendation. 🙂
Jackson Katz Lecture
I just came from a guest lecture at school by Jackson Katz. He works in gender violence prevention and has made several movies. Anyway, it was such a great lecture and really brought a lot of things to my attention I had never thought about before!… Read the rest “Jackson Katz Lecture”
Horse Show Ribbon
Well my show season came to a close this past week end in Twin Falls, Idaho at the zones horse show. I had qualified for the regional show by getting 35+ points from shows throughout the school year (1st place is 7 points, 2nd place is 5, and so on).… Read the rest “Horse Show Ribbon”
Horse Shows
Well I got back from my last horse show of the season. We had three western shows in Dillon Montana and I won a third place and two firsts. Now I’m qualified for the regional show which is a kind of preliminary for the national show.… Read the rest “Horse Shows”
Horse Show Pictures
I put up some new pictures from my regional show which took place today. I placed fourth in my class of eight, which unfortunately was not high enough to proceed on to the zones and then national show. I will be going to zones with the team (as opposed to individually) so if anyone wants to watch, we will be in Ridgefield, Washington.… Read the rest “Horse Show Pictures”
Zach Finished Basic
Jim’s youngest son, Zach Gibson, graduated from Air Force Basic Training in San Antonio. He’s on his way to more training to be a forward combat air traffic controller with the Air Force Special Forces. I wasn’t able to make the graduation but Jim was there.
Polo Clinic
I just got back from a polo clinic in Bozeman, which was a ton of fun! My horse, Ezra, wasn’t so sure about that ball flying at him and horses galloping everywhere, but he got the hang of it by the end.… Read the rest “Polo Clinic”
Looney Tunes: Back in Action (2003)
Every year we take the family out to a movie on the day after Thanksgiving. Usually Disney has some offering that the whole family can enjoy. This year the offerings of Cat in the Hat and Brother Bear we not on anyone’s list.… Read the rest “Looney Tunes: Back in Action (2003)”
Matrix: Reloaded & Revolutions (2003)
I just got back from seeing The Matrix Revolutions. I did not write up The Matrix Reloaded when it cam out so I guess I can talk about both movies. No such review would be complete without referring to the original movie.… Read the rest “Matrix: Reloaded & Revolutions (2003)”
Underworld (2003)
This movie had a lot of promise. The case looked good. The special effects are excellent. The story broke down for me when the movie failed to follow its own movie logic. The movie is about a war between Vampires and Warewolves.… Read the rest “Underworld (2003)”
Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World (2003)
I saw this last week and was very impressed. The storyline was not what I expected, but every bit of a big budget picture. I was not disappointed at all. I was anticipating a cookie-cutter story, but was very entertained by the realistic approach.… Read the rest “Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World (2003)”
Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines (2003)
I saw T3 last night at the sneak preview. It opens today. I have not read any other reviews. I really enjoyed this movie. It was true to both the spirit and the story of the first two movies. And the action was first rate Arnold.… Read the rest “Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines (2003)”
Charlie’s Angels: Full Throttle (2003)
I went to see this sequel this afternoon. It was actually my wife who wanted to see it. I enjoyed the first movie and had a good idea what to expect. What I got exceeded my expectations.
This movie was a lot of fun.… Read the rest “Charlie’s Angels: Full Throttle (2003)”
