New Stuff

Hey, I added some new features!

Namely: that ticker we've been waiting for, Lostine weather, a poll, and the PAN Box.

Tell me what you think by commenting on this post. You could vote on the poll, too... ;-)

Good times.

Some Bits of Info

OK, here's a bit more info on our vacation:

We left Wednesday morning and headed to Three Rivers Resort. It's a pretty nice place. They have water and electric hookups, pool, hotubs, playground, store, and more.

We left Friday morning and went to Dworshack, staying there until Sunday, the day we traveled back. We stopped in Spalding (more on that later, heh heh).

So that's it in a nutshell.

By the way, everybody, we have a new feature: the Providence Box (hosted from box.net). You can now download the old PAN archive (PAN Archive.zip).

See you later!

Robertson's Vacation - We're Back!

Hey everybody! We're back!

We had a great vacation at Three Rivers Resort (Lowell, Idaho) and Dworshack State Park in Idaho.

And by the way, here's a photo from the recent Hostetter-Rice wedding. Well, actually, this is at the reception, but still...

Amusing...

The next photo is at Dworshack State Park. This is a special effects photo of my father, mother, and brother.


















Hey, that's cool, huh?

I shall endeavor to fill you in more tomorrow. Thanks for tuning in!

Risky for the Frisbee

I'd like to thank blogger jennanydots for being our main supporter. In fact, she seems to be our only posting blogger besides the staff.

Not to say that lurking is bad...

Well, most of us Christ Covenant Church folks had a grand old time yesterday down at Driver's Cabin, past Imnaha. Despite the weather, we pressed on and had our message inside (delivered by Mr. Curt Bakker). Later on, it stopped raining enough for some of the younger element to have a risky game of ultimate frisbee (risky for the frisbee, that is. Imnaha River seems to like them...). Isaiah Buck made a excellent recovery when the frisbee managed to get sucked into the river, though.

Perhaps I will post some pictures from the day of rest later.

Have a good day, everybody.

Case Dismissed

This is a great praise. Two days ago, the case against Mrs. Buck was dropped! Dismissed.

Praise the Lord!!

OK, I am at the Bakker's house. If anyone is wondering, I don't think they have 1.5 Mb DSL. I think it's probably 768 K internet. Or maybe less. I'm not sure...

Compliments to Mrs. Bakker on the Chef Salad. Excellent!

La Grande Visit

Live coverage here. Sitting in Dr. Pettit's waiting room in La Grande. Connection speed is: 495.44 Kbps.

Sweet!

Nice pictures there, Matthew. You are brave (hehe).

We're going to head down t the Bakker's for lunch. Let the good times role!

Matthew's Murderous Attack

Well, my computer's RAM started acting up again: locked up a few times and gave me some random error messages, a really nice variety. This was all very fine and well, but it meant I couldn't access this c00l site! So, in a spirit of desperation (I figured things couldn't get much worse) I ripped my laptop completely apart and reassembled it after tightening vital connections...it worked! Way c00l =^)

Btw, I've been hearing bits and pieces about next year's teachers!


Check out the pictures:

Vee Dubs and Firebusting

Ok, I'm obsessed with VWs. Check out this and this. Yeah, I'd like to get a Karman Ghia...
Here is a really sweet picture of a Karman =^)
Summer is gettin' started, and work is too. Isaiah and I are working out on Mr. Hostetter's ranch, and he called me at about 7:00 this morning to ask where the four-wheeler is... it looks as if he'll be stuck without transportation for about an hour! LOL
Last Saturday was "School Days" in Flora, which celebrates the Flora School. Matt Barley and I were doing a fire-busting class: starting a fire with a sage spindle, a cottonwood fireboard, and a willow bow to rotate the spindle.

Wireless Posting

Yeah! I'm back on Wi-Fi!

Actually, I'm at the Enterprise library using the linksys network. Wireless is cool. This is 256 K internet. I clocked 74.64 Kbps at this page.

Alright, I hope everybody is doing well. Ashley has joined the blog, and I see Mrs. Bomberger left a comment.

See you later!

Drifting Into Summer

Well, this should be a relatively quick post.

All right, here are the first two verses of a soft rock song I am writing lyrics for.

A Bitter Day

It’s a bitter day
when we all have to say
goodbye

this is why I stay
I really want to say
I love you all

I think this really could be a cool song when it's done. The tune I have been using kind of sounds like a Steven Curtis Chapman song.

Well, I am kind of hoping more people join up (hint, hint! ;).

As could be expected, I haven't done much today. But hey, it's only the first day! (I'm a poet and...)

Well, the Roddeys are off to South Carolina, I believe. I'm not sure if they have arrived yet.

I tried putting a ticker on the page today, but it did not work. Oh, well, there's always next time, eh?

Have a great summer, all of you Providence people! We should be here all summer, droning on to keep you entertained.

As for those massive amounts of homework mentioned earlier... just keep your eyes open! :P

Nathaniel

It's here!

Well, folks, it's the first day of (drumroll please) Suuuummer brreak! it's a scorching hot day in Lostine, being around 85 degrees. Yesterday sure was a day of wild celebration and fun, but that's just the beginning! There are vegetables to plant, dirt to dig, projects to finish, manure to shovel, pipe to move and change, lawns to be mowed, all kinds of things!
