The Original Micro Air Vehicles

"It would go a great way to caution and direct people in the use of the world, that they were better studied and known in the Creation of it. For how could Man find the Confidence to abuse it, while they shoud see the Great Creator stare them in the face, in all and every part thereof?" 

William Penn, Some Fruits of Solitude, 1692

I really enjoy watching insects fly around the yard.  Yesterday I was able to take a picture of a couple of these original micro air vehicles.  High resolution digital photography coupled with a personal computer and a image editing program really help bring the amazingly fine detail of the created world to life.

If you are interested the William Penn quote was from the book titled Some Fruits of Solitude in Reflections and Maxims, 1682. This book is a fairly interesting read though the language can be a bit of a barrier at times.

As the summer of 2010 draws to a close we were able to take advantage of our annual passes for Walt Disney World and spend a day and a half in the parks while we were in Orlando last weekend helping Ashley take care of some nursing school tasks.

...

This weekend will see the girls heading back to school with Amanda starting the Physical Therapist program at USA and Ashley starting the nursing program at UCF. This should be an very interesting Fall for both of them.

And...only 22 days left until the kick-off between LSU and North Carolina at the Georgia Dome in Atlanta, Ga for the Chick-fil-A College Kickoff. - Geaux Tigers!
