This weekend I am back in Missouri to close on our home. Considering that I was so close I took the opportunity to go see my niece and nephew. As dad and I were driving along my brothers road, a rural road out in the country, I spotted a very large bird take flight. It had been along side the road ahead of us and began flying directly away. I quickly spotted the white tail feathers and knew I was seeing a bald eagle!
We watched as if flew off a short distance and landed in a large tree off the side of the road. We stopped and enjoyed the rare sight of a bald eagle in this area. It put up with us for awhile before it took flight and disappeared over the hill.
This was the second time in as many years I’ve seen a bald eagle in this area. The first one I sighted was at a considerable distance while I was deer hunting. Now that I’m moving to Missouri I hope I’ll have more opportunities to see this magestic symbol of our Nation.

Dee had duty again today and was going to be gone all day. It was going to be a nice day so I decided to do a little geocaching. After breakfast and getting everyone dressed we loaded up and headed out.
We met up with Jeph and his wife Sara after lunch and grabbed a few caches together. It sure helped having that many more sets of eyes to find those caches!
When we all started to get hot we headed our seperate ways. After a quick errand the girls and I stopped at Dairy Queen for some well deserved ice cream.
At the end of the day we logged 13 found caches with zero did not finds. Undoubtedly this was my personal best day so far. And it make it even better, three of those caches were ones I had failed to find on previous attempts.
The girls are all tired after our busy day. A nice warm bath tonight and they should be ready for bed.

So last night I made my way to the Century 16 and purchased my ticket for the Glenn Beck Common Sense Comedy Tour which was being simulcast from Kansas City. It was an enjoyable show that offered comedy and some interesting history which I honestly didn’t know. Glenn makes an excellent case about the way our political parties and country are going.
The particular theater that I went to didn’t have the full house that other theater go’ers have reported. (But considering I am in CA it wasn’t that big of a surprise!) Still, there were some where between 50-60 other folks there with me.
Glenn is putting on another show Thursday, June 11. You can look for a theater near you that is showing the big Encore show. I bought my picket through Fandango. To find out more about the upcoming show check Glenn’s website. If you didn’t see the first show I urge you to catch the second one!

As my first official post I will make a quick entry about my plans for the evening. I am headed off to the theater to watch the Glenn Beck show he is doing in Kansas City tonight. Since he announced it would be shown in 440 different theaters I was anxious to go see the show.
As soon as I make this post I am off to see the show!!
