January 2011

Dear Journal,

Well with every good intention I intended to write in this journal every single day for 365 days but here it is the 10th and this is my first post.   But since a journey begins with a single step -- STEP ONE.   I will just go over into 2012 (If we are all still here) 10 days.

Recently Wyoming has been praised in the news for being financially fit.   The first week on the job our new Governor decided to join the multi-state law suite  filed against the new Health Care bill.   I doubt that this law suite alone will put WY in the red but the first week in office - spending money - I just hope he will go a little slower going forward.

I also saw that I80 needed millions/billions of dollars to "fix".   I think speed bumps may be a good idea on that piece of highway.

The first 2 weeks of 2011 in Worlando Beach have given us much snow carried forward from 2010 to 2011.  The streets have finally been plowed with the new - 2011 - city budget and more snow after it was mostly cleaned off.

The real reason for this journal is to log the "real" life at Worlando Beach while waiting for the Mayan calendar to complete and global warming to warm some more.  

So far we have not had thousands of birds fall out of the sky, or dead fish wash up to shore.  There have just been the normal amount of duck hunters floating the river and ice fishermen bringing home supper.   So far so good!

However -- everything changes.  Everything is connected.  Pay attention!

See you tomorrow...
