Warmer Weather

With the temperature dropping down to freezing this week, I was thinking about the travels to the lake this summer and came across these pictures of the kids from Labor Day weekend.  Even though it was a cloudy day, we had to get in a last day of tubing.  Eight months until lake season returns! 
(Can you tell fall and winter are not my favorite seasons?)
  

Challenge #5 ???

Since this has been such a quiet week here at Lincoln (said dripping with sarcasm), I have been waiting for the next assignment in the web 2.0 challenge.  So come on Reynolds, bring on the next challenge!

Challenge #4

I have been a Facebook user for quite a while, but now I have joined twitter as well.  They are both added as gadgets on my igoogle home page.  

I am a true Facebook addict, so I am probably going to try to stay away from twitter so I can get to sleep before midnight every night. (But we'll see....)

Just a little tip for the new Facebook users out there...stay away from Farmtown and Farmville!!!  It'll become way too addicting.  If you don't believe me, just check out my farms. ;)

Challenge #3

I already had teacherscribe in my reader, so now I added kkchallenge. When I get some extra time (what's that?), I plan to look around for a few more gadgets to add.

Challenge #2

Yeah! I already have this one done... and now that we have an open internet server, some of my gadgets will really work.

I like having my igoogle page as my home page because it gives me many different options at start-up. One down fall from last year was the time it took to load the page with all the gadgets I have on it, but this year it's much faster.

Challenge #1

Well, the most difficult thing about this challenge was trying to decide on a name for the blog. I even googled "blog names" and read an article about a guy who chose a bad blog name but then had to keep it because he didn't want to have to start a new one when he already had followers.
Oh, the pressure....haha
