Love, Music and Cool Cars
 at Osprey Lodge

This video of our Valentine's Car Show will warm your heart and set your feet to tapping.  Although it was a chilly evening, love (and a romantic fireplace) kept everyone warm. We had a fun night of cool cars, good music, tasty barbecue, and wonderful folks out enjoying Love Day.  

Being More of Who You Really Are

(A nugget from Strengths Finders)

 

Most of us grew up hearing and believing the American myth that we could "be whatever we want to be."  However, research has proven that there is a greater likelihood of success if a person builds upon the raw talents they are born with.  Even Michael Jordan's considerable abilities on the basketball court were not duplicated on the baseball diamond, or the golf course.

 

On the other hand, a custom shoemaker with customers all over the world only became successful when a friend convinced him to concentrate on production and hire sales professional to market and sell his footwear. One year later, that simple adjustment has meant a 300% increase in business.

 

Simply stated, putting most of our energies into developing natural talents provides time and room for growth. So, while we may not be able to be "anything" we want to be, we certainly can be a lot of or who we are born to be.

My name is Mary. I was sitting in the waiting room for my first appointment with a new dentist, when I noticed his

DDS diploma on the wall, which bore his full name.  Suddenly I remembered that a tall, handsome, dark-haired boy with the same name had been in my high school class some thirty odd years ago. Could he be the same guy that I had a crush on way back then? 

 

Upon seeing him however, I quickly discarded any such thought.  This balding, gray-haired man with the deeply lined face was way too old to have been my classmate.

 

After he examined my teeth, I asked him if he had attended Morgan Park High School.  'Yes. Yes, I did. I'm a Mustang,' he gleamed with pride.

 

'When did you graduate?' I asked.

 

He answered, 'in 1975. Why do you ask?'

 

'You were in my class!', I exclaimed.

 

He looked at me closely. Then, that ugly, balding, wrinkled-faced, fat, grey-haired, decrepit, miserable, old man asked...

 

"What did you teach?"
