Columbus Sleigh rally

Posted on 7:33 AM by Unknown
Would have posted sooner but I had so very important HIPPA training to do.

Last weekend DJ and I attended the Columbus Sleigh Rally and it was pretty nice.  Could not ask for better snow and I had a chance to speak to Fritz Klien again. The nations foremost Lincoln impersonator.   I presented him with a 20x30 image of himself and Grant.  I believe it's the only photo of him ever taken where he was smiling.


At the rally I took more shots (I suppose Lincoln does not love that wording) at Lincoln and the few I've played with are here.

This first one is my favorite at the moment - not sure why.  I think it's just because it stirs  . . .sadness?? I don't know.



and here is one with his wife who was not REALLY excited to be all dressed up for a day but . . . .
Well done Melanie Lichtfeld and team for a nice rally!

-----------------------------------------

Then there is the Grammy's - WOW - I thought tha twas one of the most boring Grammys ever.  Must have been the anal dress code.

I think the best performance was by Rhinna  - it was intoxicating .

 Otherwise - not a lot to talk about HERE! 

We had 0.854 inches of rain the other day and I'll post the rain chart when I update it.

Then there is the Pope.   No comment. 

Survivor and Amazing Race premier this week.  Rumor has it three teams quite on Amazing Race.   A new show called Zero Hour premiers Thursday and looks pretty good.   A 13 episode series (+ 9 if all goes well) called Under the Dome taken from a Steve King book  is in the works.  About a town of 5000 where a dome cuts them off from the world 

grr - gotta run!
