Test Software - Warning long video

This is the best video I have seen on testing software.

Daily walk

Most everyday at work I go out for a regular walk. My work location is the Cannon Building at 288 North 1460 West. There is a nice little walking path connected to the building that makes for a nice place to go for a walk. Here is an aerial view of what the walking path looks like.

Considering a Smart Car

My Mom wrote her first blog today

I must say I am proud of my Mom. She wrote her first blog today. That is an accomplishment for someone who only does things on the computer when they have too.

Backpacking with Morganne

Morganne was intent on getting out and doing some backpacking. She has not been for a long time. It was raining and I was not really excited to go. For such a quick overnighter and back early on Saturday morning I did not want to drive far. We decided to go out west to what is called Yellow Fork up by Rose Canyon near Herriman. The thing about that is your not supposed to camp up in there. So technically we were breaking the law. Something I usually try to avoid. We did end up having a good time. The weather cooperated there was not a bit of rain or wind all night. We cooked up some "Chicken Alfredo" (yum yum).

Provo River Fishing Trip

I went fishing on Saturday with my son Merril. It was note worthy because Merril caught his first fish on a fly rod using a nymph. He has caught lots of fish but every time he has tried fishing with nymph he has not been successful. He caught three fish on the trip. That is if you count the one he swatted like a bear up on to the shore with his hands. It was really a funny thing. He had been fishing for a while in this one hole and turned around there was this big fish just sitting in the shallows right behind him. He thought he would try just scooping it up and throwing it onto the shore. The fish did not even move. It was a really old fish and was just about to die. The others he caught were younger and lively. One of them he snagged in the fin rather than hooking it in the mouth. I don't know what my problem was but I just didn't seem to have it. I guess that is just how it goes. Better luck next time.

Do I really like blogging?

Do I really like blogging? No not really. So why do I bother. It seems like there must be something I should be learning from it. I see others blogs and wonder why they blog. It must be one of those self confidence factors. What is there in my life that is worth sharing? It is easy to just give the answer - nothing and leave it at that. Isn't it? But when I stop and ponder for just a moment I know that it is not true. Even some small simple expression of thanks can make a world of difference to somebody. At least I have found that is true for me. All I need is for someone to tell me they appreciated something that I have done and it makes me very happy. So maybe I will keep on writing another blog. Who knows maybe they will get better as I write more of them. So - yippee - blog time is over for now.

Trying it out

Not to bad so far.
