Huck has our back!

I am a huge supporter of Mike Huckabee for the Republican Presidential nomination in 2008. I will go into much more depth in future entries on the issues and why I agree with him on most every one. In this case I wanted to just fly over the big picture of why he impresses me so much. Mike is a very confident speaker. He can handle any question with perfect ease. Check this one out:

That impresses me most of all because they really have no reason to ask that question to a Presidential candidate, but he handled it extremely well. When Mike talks he comes across as one of us, and as someone speaking from conviction not a power trip. Mike would be Mike in office, not someone we never knew existed like our current President (sorry). Bottom line Mike is not someone with political aspirations, a list of stances on the issues, who happens to be a man of faith and values. He is a man of very strong values and beliefs that guide his list of stances on the issues. There is a huge difference.

I love this time of year

I am an amateur nature photographer, and this time of year is the perfect time of year for gathering images of beauty. The sky is a perfect, the clouds seem so much softer, trees and flowers are springing out with color everywhere, and it's just a pleasant time to be outdoors. I have been able to gather some stunning images this spring and I'm looking forward to getting even more in the days to come. I love to be outside all the time, but no time more than spring. Of course, here in Virginia, Spring is either really short or non existent most of the time. For example, this year we went from 30s and 40s right to upper 70s and low 80s. Wow that's a system shock!
