Iceland: Staggering beauty
I've gotten the itch to visit Iceland. I hear nothing but good things about it, and it seems that it isn't even as cold as I thought. I check their weather daily, and lately it isn't any colder than much of our Louisiana weather in winter. But we'd go in summer.
Look at these pictures!

You know me.
I am a risk taker.
I put my money on the line,
and I am rewarded handsomely.
Conservatives understand my value.
They worship me for my bravery in the business world.
They work for me.
They risk their health for me.
They risk workplace injury for me.
They risk their lives for me.
They do not expect great rewards for their risks.
They did not risk money, after all.
I risk money.
I risk financial loss.
I risk bankruptcy.
I risk having to go out and find a job.
I risk becoming one of YOU!
And you're not insulted by that.

Nearly finished with my old house. If you'd told me 20 years ago that I'd still be working on it after I retired, I'd have bought a double-wide instead.
Photo is from ten minutes ago. Now to dust myself off and go buy some beer.
Still remodeling after 20 years.
