Miles reading!

Our first grader is learning how to read.. so cool!

Red pine trees outside autumn are a bad sign..

We were in Frisco, CO last weekend, visiting some friends and went on a hike.  It was horrifying to see how many trees were red, considering fall isn’t for months.  I read the papers and knew what was going on - the pine beetle infestation had hit some areas of trees, the damage was all too apparent.  It’s sad to see and they are cutting down lots of trees to cut off the movement of these pesky insects.  When you read the wikipedia link I posted, it’s saddening to see how devastating these little critters are.

Is global warming to blame?  Perhaps.  These beetles are often killed off with a prolonged cold spell - which winter usually does well.  However, winters haven’t been as cold, allowing the beetles to live on and reproduce.  I took a few pics and you can see the brownish/red pine trees.. thankfully, these beetles don’t eat the lovely Aspen Trees , which are all that might be left.

I’m going to make this easy for you..

Here in the THN office, we have a K-Cup coffee machine, but SO many flavors - which to choose from?

Thanks to Flickr, I’ve assembled a little image map with annotations to help guide you.

You’re welcome.. (click the image to see it with the notes)

A fun toy, useful? t/b/d

Xoopit is a new site that offers integration with your gmail account.. It scans all your emails for pictures, videos, and files and gives you a feed of all of these objects.  I think that’s a pretty innovative idea and uses the gmail API in a new and interesting way.
What to do with this?  I’m still unsure, but it is still kind of cool.

A softball double play!
