Mid Term Exam day!

Well, today I took the mid term exam for my tax class. I was a little disappointed that I missed 7 out of 42 questions but that still gave me an 81% for that test. Now if I can only get that good on the final and I'll be home free. The final is happening in the first part of December so I have a little less than a month to go. Today we had a chapter on business expenses and Schedule C. Man, talk about over my head! I didn't understand much of what I read today so I need to do a bunch more studying to get an idea what the hell they are talking about. At least I am feeling like I'm starting to get it, we had to do a tax return for today's exam and I got that right the first time. That one had sale of stock, dividend income, interest income and student loan payments. Ok, maybe I can do this... we'll see!

Having fun yet?

Yep I am, believe it or not. Yesterday Karen and I took a nice ride up in the hills east of here and had a wonderful drive on some dirt roads in the trees. I didn't get any pictures while we were up in the forest but along the way there are some windmill generators and I got this picture with the Tetons in the background.

As we were coming back into town we came across this beautiful canyon at the bottom of Wolverine Creek. You can see the Jeep there in the picture and get some idea of the perspective.


So weekend before last Krista and Curtis came up from Logan and we had a big breakfast on Sunday morning. I made waffles and Karen took this last picture that morning. I really enjoy seeing Krista and we had a nice visit with them.
