A Gorgeous Labor Day, Sept. 6, 2010

High Flight

Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth

And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;

Sunward I’ve climbed, and joined the tumbling mirth

of sun-split clouds, — and done a hundred things

You have not dreamed of—wheeled and soared and swung

High in the sunlit silence. Hov’ring there,

I’ve chased the shouting wind along, and flung

My eager craft through footless halls of air....

Up, up the long, delirious, burning blue

I’ve topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace

Where never lark nor even eagle flew—

And, while with silent lifting mind I’ve trod

The high untrespassed sanctity of space,

Put out my hand, and touched the face of God.

How exciting it must be to fly high in the sky. On this late summer day it is awesome to see the tree-framed blue sky with puffy white clouds. I love our Earth.

Retro Skating Party!!!

It was so fun
learning what the
Retro Style is.

I went roller skating at Winnwood Skating rink at my good friend and coworker Heather G's happy 40th birthday bash. I enjoyed meeting her parents. Heather selected some very groovy music to skate to. We skated on a brand new wood floor. It was pretty slick. I managed not to fall. I think everyone who attended had a great time. Thank you to Heather and her mom and dad.
