Watching (remotely) our grandson’s Minnesota high school hockey team “stand” for the national anthem. I wasn’t sure (after all of the national attention given to sports figures who disrespect the flag) if they still did this.
Nice to see!
Bryce Canyon Winter Watercolor
I’m painting even faster these days. Here is a Bryce Canyon winter scene in 1-minute. It’s a pretty masking-intense watercolor, but the technique captures the intricate snow patterns.

Seasonal Self-Control
It is not easy being good this time of year.
Marlene’s Montana Huckleberry Bars — yet another excuse to eat chocolate.
Marlene’s Montana Huckleberry Bars trivia: These delicious bars were once employed to help gain a national art store’s sponsorship for our PBS series. Once you take a bite, “resistance is futile.”
Lucky Guy
Today, I begin my 42nd year of marriage to this beautiful woman. It doesn’t seem possible that we got married so many years ago (or that she could put up with me for so long).
In a vast universe, how did I ever find my perfect mate?
I’m a lucky guy.
Steely Doobie Missileman
An outstanding, more recent (2016) live rendition of the old Steely Dan song, Rikki Don’t Lose That Number. This has not been a favorite song of mine, but this ensemble makes it sound so good. Surprisingly, the lead singer here is not Steely Dan’s Donald Fagen, but is rather Kipp Lennon of the band Venice (who may sound more like Fagen than Fagen).
Even more interesting, I learned that the lead guitarist on this video is Jeffrey “Skunk” Baxter of Steely Dan and Doobie Brothers fame. Unbeknownst to me, he went on to become a high-level missile defense advisor to the Pentagon. Wow! Talk about a multitasker!
