Still recovering from the plague I sufferred yesterday, I had plenty of time to rifle through some old photos. Thought I would share.

While looking through old photos, I found this one of Clay. This is from Christmas two years ago. He tried on Scott’s (way-to-small-for-Clay) Hillsdale College t-shirt. What followed was Clay transforming into a posing machine. Much of his “poses” are NSFB (not suitable for blogging). Here is one that was. Please note, he isn’t even holding a cell phone.
Wagerline is Back
Wagerline is back. This fun filled NCAA football league is about to begin. I am sure that there will be much more that just the excitement of UNT upsetting K-State this season, so get on board. Here is the URL: http://www.wagerline.com/sportscontests/poolContest.aspx?ID=11901, email Andrew for the password.
The Gap
My grandmother, “Gannie”, has lived in Cranfills Gap, Texas for 36 years. “The Gap” as it is called by locals was established by Norwegian settlers and the residents (all 600) are very proud of their Norwegian heritage. Gannie’s father (my great-grandfather), Otto Reesing, was 17 when he sailed alone from Norway to America to settle in Cranfills Gap in 1906. He came through Ellis Island and received his citizenship several years after the voyage. As a new citizen, he enlisted in the Army to fight in World War I.
edit: Reason for “The Gap” post is because Heather and I took a day off from work to make a visit. Heather had never been to this place of my childhood.
Steve Prefontaine
Hopefully this quick film, filmed yesterday will help motivate the RozellBoys to get a couple more “in the can.” Perhaps in Scott’s final week home, we can get one more. Until then, this is a clip from a scene in the movie, Prefontaine. The great story of Oregon runner, Steve Prefontaine.
Thanks to Joe Rozell for filming.
