Midnight in Paris

A delightful film from Woody Allen. Owen Wilson does a surprisingly good job. Wonderful jab at the "tea party"

4.5 * 5

It's a truly wonderful sunny day in Seattle. It's the sort of day that people say, "let's move here."

Tree of Life

Brad Pitt, Sean Penn and Jessica Chastain.

An existential romp through life's major musings. "Oh, I get it. No, wait. I don't. Yes. No. Yes. No. Maybe."

Road Trip

The Storms have been on the road! We made it to Yellowstone. Asher really liked the bison. I hope this doesn't mean he wants to go to NDSU!

Happy Birthday, Jim

Hope you have a great day! Thanks for keeping Warroad Roots going!

Burn baby Burn

I went over to Vashon on July 1st to help my dear friends Shafel and Shelley burn their 2 and 1/2 year old brush pile. We decided Friday night that the Christmas tree that was in the pile should be burned to purge the past. When I visit them, we play a lot of pinochle and a dice game named Farkle. Whoever wins a game gets a star! One thing led to another and we decided to make a star for the top of the tree and burn it. Shafel, quite the artist, made the star out of a paper towel roll and egg carton.

This was the result.

Beginners

The movie, Beginners, with Ewan McGregor and Christopher Plummer is marvelous. It appears to be only playing in art houses. Anyway, catch if you can.

Bridemaids

3.99 stars out of 5. I couldn't quite get it to 4. I laughed, I cried it wasn't The Hangover. However, a much better chance for a funny sequel.

And a photo because photos are fun.


Oh, that Rusty.

Going for a ride on a B-17 bomber!



For my birthday Tonya bought me a ticket to ride on the Aluminum Overcast, a WWII vintage B-17 bomber! Is that cool or what!
