UMC Candlelighters – Picnic at the zoo April 26, 2008
Posted by Major in : Childhood Cancer, Jackson Zoo, UMC Candlelighters, iPhone blogging , add a commentLots of fun was had by everyone attending the UMC Candlelighters 2008 Picnic at the Jackson Zoo today. The food was catered by Penn’s Fish House and they did a wonderful job feeding everybody. I attended the picnic with my wife and children and they got to meet some of the people that I work with at the Blair E. Batson Hospital for children. After the picnic we rode the train around Livingston Park and then we went into the zoo to see the animals and ride the carousel. It was a comfortable day and although it did rain some it was not enough to spoil our day. Many areas of the zoo was closed for renovations, but there was still plenty to see. I’m looking forward to next years picnic.
The UMC Candlelighters are a nonprofit organization of parents and friends of children with cancer that provides emotional, financial and educational support to families.

Spring Yard Cleanup April 12, 2008
Posted by Major in : In the yard, iPhone blogging , add a commentThis weekend the kids and I did a lot of yard cleanup. We cleared brush and burned limbs, pine straw, and other yard debris. We managed to keep this burn barrel going for three days. The kids loved the outdoor activity and I enjoyed getting the grass cutting season off to a good start.
