Before any big game, football coaches play and replay films of the opposing team.  They learn the weak and strong points of their adversary before they even walk out on the field.  They understand that there has never been “just another game” if winning is where you plan to end up.  In that vein, let’s take a look at the assemblage of ...

As we begin this transition in earnest, I want to bullet point the foundational premises that we will be following.  We will not get into great detail, but I will give you a bit of insight now and later as we go through actually finding, measuring, and purchasing an office we will expand your understanding and the logic of where we are ...

I would have to say that there are many things I like about the Fourth of July, but my favorite is eating desserts.  For almost 35 years, we have thrown a Fourth of July get together on our farm.  We generally have a hundred or so assorted adults and kids over for the Fourth of July celebration.  While we supply all of the meat, the music, and ...
