Not so great Pumpkin… PAD #1095

Not so great Pumpkin... PAD #1095

For Halloween I picked up a small pumpkin for Eva. We also got a bigger one for the front steps from our friend Mike. We left it out for a very long time, well past freshness. As it started to decompose I put it on the snow and off the steps. The snow is gone and now the pumpkin is nothing more than a stem and some seeds. I hope that some make it into the ground and the circle is complete.

Today I guest posted at the IZEA blog. That post is all about using your digital cameras to their full potential. Then I finally got a post up for FuelMyBlog and I started BenSpark’s Photo Challenge on that blog. I’m hoping that the FuelMyBlog community gets interested in submitting images for the weekly themed challenge.

On The Wired Kayaker my friend Lisa wrote a guest post. She was on a bloggers only interview with captains from The Deadliest catch. I was asked if I wanted to do it but wasn’t that interested because I’ve never watched the show. Lisa was a big fan so I asked if she could do the interview and if she wanted to guest post on The Wired Kayaker. It all worked out except for a technical glitch in the interview, but she did write a great guest post.

Help Tyler find a Cure…

4 Comments

I am on a ‘get behind a cause’ kick lately. Yesterday Allison and I committed ourselves to the Relay for Life team with our church and we will start fund raising soon, My last 3 posts have been about the Machinski family on Oprah’s Big give last night and now I have learned about Tyler.

Tyler’s world began to shatter in February 2005. That was when this healthy and active 7 year old boy began showing signs of Dystonia. Dystonia is a debilitating nerve disorder that causes people to shake uncontrollably and twist muscles into painful positions. Rather than sit idly by Tyler’s Hope for a Dystonia Cure Foundation was created to advance research and raise awareness about this disorder.

You can learn a bit more about Tyler from Dan Rua’s blog. He wrote about Tyler’s hope and he was the person who informed me of this. Please visit Tyler’s Hope to find out what you can do to help.
