It is a crime to use some one's ID and/or SSN, but in the great state of Colorado it seems the ACLU is take this issue to the state supreme court on the behalf of illegal aliens. If a citizen of the United States were to use a false ID or some one's SSN they would go to jail. But it seems that the ACLU and others on the left will swept breaking the law by illegals under the rug. To me this is so wrong on so many levels.

Men’s breakfast this morning at church, and the bride and I have been cleaning out closets and drawers this afternoon, pretty busy day. It has turned cold and it may rain a little. I think it is about time to settle down in front of a fire and watch some tube.

It has been a fairly busy morning, Had some blood drawn, blood pressure checked,picked up meds for mom, and met the bride for lunch. I also picked up some brake pads for the truck. I will do the brakes in the morning and I plan on splitting some wood this afternoon. It has turned out to be a beautiful day and the forecast is for great weather for the rest of the week. I had planned to go fishing on Thursday but my Thursday morning got clogged up. Mom and I were going for haircuts this morning. The lady that does our hair had to take he daughter to the doctor, some kind of a rash or something. She called and asked if we could come Thursday. So I will go Friday (Nate get your poles ready). I figure to head out about 8:00 Thursday morning. (Nate I'll be at your house about 8:15). That's about it for the day, not rebel rousing, no protest, no nothing.

more pics
















I attended one of the many Tax day Tea Parties held around the nation. The crowd in Salt Lake City was about a 1000 strong. The protesters were polite and well behaved. A lot of the signs were directed at Obama but many were bi partisan as was mine. The government is out of control in its spending and the folks in congress are more interested in staying in power then doing what is good for the country. The turn out across the nation was incredible but you are hard pressed to find it mentioned by the main stream media. It seems that the average citizen is dismissed by media giants ABC, NBC, and CBS. The only full coverage was done by FOX news.

If you watched FOX would have seen 15000-20000 protesters in Texas, 1000’s in New York City, Boston, and cities all across the nation. The speakers asked that we keep the movement alive by burn up the lines to the White House and congress, to use our e mail and blogs to keep information moving. There is a good chance that you will see more of a political slant in my blog, and I will try to keep in bi partisan. If you sit back and take a long hard look at both parties they both are working towards big government and take more control in our daily lives Both parties have spent us into debt, both parties waste money on pork. Both parties have to wake up and listen to the people. After all it is We the People. BTW President Obama said he was not aware of the protest. Maybe he should look out his window.




















I took about 80 pictures but I am only going to post a few.
Above is a shot of the crowd.

















Yep that is me.





My buddies, I took this just as the protesters were starting to assemble. The middle guy is my buddy Nate from Wasted Electrons.

I am headed for a Tea Party in the morning. The federal government is out of control. They no longer repersent the people and it is about time we make some noise.

Garden boxes

















I have built two garden boxes, now all I need is dirt. The land fill (county dump) has "green area" where you can buy mulch and compost for a good price. I think it is about $10 a truck load. So next week I will make two or three trips to the dump and buy my compost. Many tomatoes and peppers will be grown this year. The bride and I will figure out just what to plant. I have tried gardens in the past but I traveled so much for the government when I came back it was to weeds and dead plants. Now that I am retired I should have a much easier time with the garden. I'll keep you posted.
