Thor is taking fishing to the next level this year. While he has been fishing several times over the past few years, this year he began learning more about the process that comes after the catch. He is learning about and how to identify the various species of fish in our area as well as how to clean and prepare them to eat.
Will the 5.11 Apex Pants stand up to the rigors of Circus life? Tim Kennedy did the splits in these so I had to put them to a test myself. Putting the 5.11 Apex Pants to a real tactical challenge. Will they rip when put through a heavy workout or will they bust open when we get in the aerial silks to do some splits. These pants have been great. Plenty of pockets to carry extra magazines, ammo, pacifiers, and snacks depending on what you may face that day. Plus they look nice and fit well!!
As part of Thor’s class, each child gets to bring Corduroy the Bear home for a weekend.
Along with Corduroy comes several books telling of some of Corduroy’s adventures.
While Corduroy may only be a little stuffed bear a weekend can provide some great value. When Thor was given the opportunity to bring Corduroy home we used it as more than just a teddy bear.
We emphasize responsibility, proper care of other’s things, and how to share and teach others about the things we enjoy.
NATURE DEFICIT DISORDER is plaguing our country. We spend too much time inside in front of electronic boxes under artificial lights pecking little glowing devices.
We are living in an artificial world.

Nobody ever said, “The great indoors…”
Get outside and enjoy the great creation God has given to us. Breathe the fresh air. Enjoy the sights, sounds, and smells of the real world. Be still. Be silent. And like Elijah, listen for the still voice of GOD in the gentle breeze.
Then he said, “Go out and stand on the mountain in the Lord’s presence.” At that moment, the Lord passed by. A great and mighty wind was tearing at the mountains and was shattering cliffs before the Lord, but the Lord was not in the wind. After the wind, there was an earthquake, but the Lord was not in the earthquake. After the earthquake, there was a fire, but the Lord was not in the fire. And after the fire, there was a voice, a soft whisper. When Elijah heard it, he wrapped his face in his mantle and went out and stood at the entrance of the cave.
I Kings 19:11-13
Suddenly, a voice came to him and said, “What are you doing here, Elijah?”
