The triplets have been going to a tutorial, called Priest Lake Academy this year instead of the Co op they attended in years past.  The  tutorial is also on Fridays and is very similar except that the teachers are paid, whereas in the co op, the parents took their turns teaching. It worked well because some were better with Math, others, history etc.

This layout depicts a Cookout held for the kids of Priest Lake Academy.  The triplets look pretty happy. It seems they enjoyed being with their friends as well as swinging, climbing and roasting marshmallows.

I came across a quote that is quite meaningful to me these days. "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing." Edmund Burke.

Very true!  Tomorrow is voting day here in Ohio.  Please do not sit by and wait for the voting to be over. We all have a duty to  read up on the issues and to vote tomorrow.

Issue 2 is very important. Don't let the unions scare you. The consequences they describe for passing the bill are what  will happen if it doesn't pass.  These unions work for the people.  Yet, they don't want us, the taxpayers to have any say in their work contracts. While all of us are losing jobs and many are stepping down to lower paying jobs, they want to continue telling us what we will pay them.  It is only fair that they take cuts if the rest of us are.  Where will we get the money if they demand more? Out of our already over taxed pockets...or those of our children.

Another  issue of utmost importance is Issue 3 in Ohio .  It has to do with the health care bill that the federal government  has been pushing down our throats. If it does come into effect, our economy will take another big dive.  Not only does it take away our freedoms in medical care, but it is packed full of other laws that have absolutely nothing to do with health care.  One of those is a federal tax on all home sales. It will punish those who retire and then must sell their homes to have enough money to take care of themselves in their old age. If a person is able to pass the house on to his children, they will have to pay the tax.  Vote yes on Issue 3 to preserve the freedom of Ohioans to choose their health care and health care coverage. Plus, vote yes  to avoid all the laws that have sneaked into the  national healthcare bill.

Don't sit this one out.  Get out there and dance.
