Pace's First Birthday!

After waking to ominous grey skies, we made the call to keep the party at Nickle Lake rather than moving into Grandpa and Grandma Thompson's house in Weyburn for Pace's birthday.
We were rewarded with a beautiful, sunny (if a bit windy) day with a great turnout for the party, delicious burgers and hot dogs cooked expertly by Grandpa Ray, a visit from some distant cousins Pace hadn't seen for awhile and way more gifts than we wanted (or Pace needed!). We had goody bags for the kids who came *and* the adults too. (One guest said "I've never got a goody bag at a party!"). Pace was very well behaved for most of the day considering all the attention and excitement swirling around him, the sugar entering his body and the lack of naps in the afternoon. Shea's uploaded a bunch of photos of Pace's big day on Flickr if you're interested. Saturday, May 17
Hmmm...Dice Stacking?

I'm sort of burnt out after a full day of inventory & weeding on Friday (more than a full day - we were at it from 6am until 9pm or so) and then a full day today spent at Nickel Lake, just outside Weyburn, getting ready for the big birthday party coming up on Monday.
So instead of original content or thought, I present "Dice Stacking": Saturday, May 10
Emergency! (TV Show, not a call for help)

Sometimes it's the stupidest things that make you realise how amazing and cool and awesome the Internet truly is.
Yesterday, we saw a fire truck leaving its station while we were out and about and, for the first time in about, oh, twenty-five years, I thought about a TV show I loved as a kid - Emergency! I went on YouTube and of course, the opening credits for the show were there as well as a few related clips and scenes. I can't wait for that inevitable day when ALL creative content like this, including full programs, is out there, ready for us to access. As someone told me recently, when you're at the end of an era, that's when the people who will suffer most from the change hold on the tightest. Translation: goodbye current copyright laws, hello future! Monday, May 5
I'm So Proud - My First Official Copyright Violation Notice (a single tear rolls down my cheek)

The funniest part is that I've got nothing but positive comments about my Pace montage on YouTube and I probably encouraged one or two people to seek out (and maybe even buy!) this old country tune. Dear YouTube Member:
Well, I can't complain too much - Universal Music Group is progressive enough that they let the video stay up at least. Of course, if ads start showing up on something that is at least 50% my content, I think I might have to upload another video named "Tippy Toeing by Loreta Lyn" with a whole other set of photos behind it. --- UMG has claimed some or all audio content in your video Pace Owen in "Tippy Toeing" by Loretta Lynn. This claim was made as part of the YouTube Content Identification program. Your video is still live because UMG has authorized the use of this content on YouTube.
