Utah Vacation Saga Post Seven – EPIC 500+ Mile Road Trip – Capitol Reef And Lake Powell

OK, so it’s taken a while for me to get this post up.  Yes, I’ve been a bit of a slacker, but that’s not the only reason.  The rest of the story is that there are just so many pictures.  We left Price, UT at about 0900 on Thursday and got back at 0100 on [...]

Utah Vacation Saga Post Four – Down at the Swimmin’ Hole

Yes, there’s a real city owned swimming pool in Price, UT.  But many of the kids in town would rather swim in a place like this   It’s an irrigation canal and it’s normally a bit deeper than it was the day I took this picture.  We only had water up to our waist and [...]

Utah Vacation Saga Post One – The Trip North From Las Vegas, NV to Price, UT

I’ve been back from my vacation in Utah since Sunday but it’s taken quite a while to get all the pics edited, cropped, stitched, and sorted.  I’m going to try to go in chronological order, but I might goof that a bit here and there   Tonight’s post is probably going to be a bit [...]

Taxed When Earned, Taxed When Spent, Now Taxed When Transferred???

The TEA Party traces its heritage to the famous protest in Boston Harbor, but it also stands for Taxed Enough Already.  Seriously, I’m about fed up with taxes.  Nevada has low taxes, but that’s because the legislature here spells “tax” different most places – they spell it “fee” hoping most don’t see the truth. The [...]

Licensing Rights – Which Rights Are You Willing To Pay For?

It will likely come as no surprise that I’m against pretty much any sort of licensing of any rights whatsoever.  If you need a license, the government gets a say as to whether or not you can do whatever it is they want to license.  Even if you only have to pay a few dollars [...]

Picture & Video A Day – July 4, 2010 – Fireworks!!!

So, I got to have fun with machine guns, silencers, and lots of other loud things on Saturday.  What was I to do on our actual Independence Day?  I’d actually thought about going shooting again, but in the end I decided I’d stick with just explosives One of the benefits of living in Las Vegas [...]
