WHY DO I BLOG?
I decided to grab another cup of coffee and sit down and write my blog on a rainy Saturday afternoon. As I sat down in my comfortable recliner and contemplated on what to blog about, I asked myself “Why do I write a blog each week?” Before I began writing this week’s blog I looked back over the 300 blogs that I have written and … Continue reading WHY DO I BLOG?
YOUNG GOLFERS
I was in Willmar Wednesday for section golf. I’m always in awe of young golfers that do well, 7th and 8th graders that make golfing look so easy.

I attend the Canby Chamber meetings and I must say … Continue reading CANBY GETS A+

My graduation didn’t start out too well. My mother had been on me about getting a haircut about a week before graduation day. In the 1970’s most of the guys had long … Continue reading MY GRADUATION
I MET WES AND LEW
I was asked to come to Canby High School Friday night and do a radio broadcast to promote the SMSU Wheelchair Basketball Team. I did not know what to expect. I have never been to a wheelchair basketball game or around anyone that played the sport. I made some new friends and got a education about people with disabilities and learned about wheelchair basketball. The … Continue reading I MET WES AND LEW
SOMEONE LOVES TO RUN
One of my Facebook friends is Lisa Gillund from Minneota. We have never met in person, but are friends on Facebook because I follow the Minneota sports scene. Lisa is a wife and mother and her love of running is something special. Monday she will run in her second Boston Marathon. I have been following her posts on Facebook recently about her training for the … Continue reading SOMEONE LOVES TO RUN
