Made it back, thanks to Timmy and Deb for hauling my tailback and mom for my pickup. Of course mom was embarrassed by my beautiful painted toe nails. Her friends all laughed about it at the Warren County Fair , dad just shook his head…..The fair was packed, compared to other years. Going to hit that with the boys on Sunday.


Some sleep and the DMACC 3on 3 basketball tournament tomorrow……good luck to Keegan, Austin and Aaron ……Hopefully nice weather. Then I have to go meet the bus…

RAGBRAI was pretty good; except for some of the drama…..Maybe I shouldn’t go anymore…or at least get a different group of people to hang out with. The stuff that comes back to me about myself is amazing… I still don’t understand why my life is so interesting that people need to embellish things and create there own facts( for a multiple of reasons..or they just fill in holes with something). The only time it bothers me is when people I like start believing what they hear. Other than that sometimes it’s flattering, but after all this time I’d rather have the records straight instead of fighting the legend……
Going to take a needed nap…..

Wow, I had the nicest 1 1/2 minute conversation with the EX this morning. She was cheerful, polite, and not degrading. She either met someone or is on meds.

Those damn Beaver Puddle ...they scored a place in Council Bluffs with a pool...probably even enough room for us.....nothing like waiting till the last minute.

Blaise was pleased that I remembered his Rex Racer yesterday.

Tomorrow at this time, I'll be forgetting the last few items for RAGBRAI . As long as I don't forget the tent this year. We may actually update the site a little at TEAM KAMIKAZE , since I can do it from my phone. As for photos, still haven't had time to implement a great solution for a photo album and I definately don't have time today. I also lost a valuable hour of work last night......

Have A Great WEEK! I will finally, maybe be able to relax and get back to semi-nature...and since this didn't happen in Cozumel ( I should have done the Costa Rica thing by myself)...It's been a long time....I'm about ready to burst or go postal.

Ok, so Blaise is with his daycare at Living History Farms . So I was going to meet him for lunch. The lady was not going to let me in without paying admission for $11.50....Just to be there for 30 minutes. Long story short, I had a nice lunch with Blaise and several of his friends.

As a bonus surprise to the kids I went into the general store and bought all the kids a $.50 cent item of candy...It will be a mad house when they leave trying to pick and choose.....nothing like being strung out on suger in a bus

Last words from Blaise ... Rex Racer ....to help me remember his car from work tonight.....

The baseball season is finally it is over...now I can get ready for RAGBRAI , crap it starts Saturday

Only 3 weeks of softball once RAGBRAI is over!

Whip It ...looks like a cool chic movie...

Another game another loss.....Tonight is when the real games start! 8pm again...

No Stephen Chow for Kato

The team listing for the Kamikazes has been updated. Sure to have a great time this year...No Drama..Drama..Drama

Not much sleep

Deep Thought of the Day: One thing that makes me believe in UFOs is, sometimes I lose stuff.
