Had about 1/2″ of rain this weekend.

Kathy and I enjoyed Clarkston International Bible Church this morning!

Pastor Phil preached on the cross. Never an easy subject.

Came home to work on homework. We had three different teams this week. In order for me to consider the teams “complete” I send them an email with a link to the edited video on YouTube, the location of all the photo galleries and produce a DVD to mail them.

So far I’ve edited all the video and sent the email to the leaders. I have all three DVDs burned, next I’ll package them up and send them on to their church.

After I edit the video, my editing software then encodes the video into an mpeg4 that I can upload to YouTube. That “rendering” process can take a while for the longer videos.

I recorded a new podcast this afternoon! Always fun!

One of my best efforts! It’s called “UPload!”

Unfortunately, my server is full so I’ll have to wait till Tuesday the 1st to upload. Ironic, eh?

I went for a 5.02 mile run while I waited for my computer to process one of the videos. It was a beautiful day. The flowers and trees are still amazing.

I thought the branches looked like fingers.

Can you see the Sharp Shinned Hawk in the left side of this picture?
h
While I was running, I saw the hawk dive out of the air and clobber a robin in mid air. Wham! Feathers everywhere. I tried to sneak up to get a better look but he flew off with the robin in its claws. Wild!
I also watched this vulture feasting on a dead opossum.
v
It had chewed most of the flesh away from its rib cage. I decided not to take a picture of it. But I still thought it was cool. He flew up into a tree and watched me as I ran down the road.

The dogwoods are just beginning to bloom. They’re supposed to bloom around Easter. The flowers have dark spots on them. They’re supposed to represent the wounds of Christ.

Kathy rode all the way from Clarkston back home. That’s over 12 miles. Way to go, K!

We watched a movie tonight called Prince Avalanche. Pretty weak. We kept waiting for it to get better, then it ended.

I still need to package the DVDs before I rest tonight. Ash and I start over tomorrow morning with two new teams. Yeah, baby!
