OK, so the top picture is the same shot that I used for class without the tree. The second shot was taken by my daughter while practicing with the WV quiz bowl team.  Very rarely do I like pictures of myself. However, this captures the genuine joy I have when working with the quiz bowl team.  We are having a blast.  Making the move to Milton Middle School was one of the best decisions I have ever made. By the way - we plan to dominate the RESA Region 2 West Virginia History Bowl tournament!!!

Both pictures were taken this morning as I was going out to work.  I planned to leave a few minutes early in anticipation of a great sunrise.  Though the sunrise was not too colorful this view atop my hill was spectacular.  I am always amazed at the handywork I witness each morning.  I think creation speaks for itself and there are really no words to describe such beauty.

All of these pictures were taken at Riviera Golf Course.  I grew up and attend church near here and have always marveled at the beautiful landscape.

As a child we spent many days playing around the railroad tracks, placing a penny on the rail and waiting for the train to come by and blow his whistle.  Pictures such as this evoke many memories.
