\u201cHats off\u201d to you all who compete in high school and university sports and fine arts.  Many of you are in tournaments now and only the winning team advances while the other\u2019s season ends; great life experiences.  Theodore Roosevelt\u2019s \u201cThe Man (person) in the Arena\u201d is something you as competitors may want to read.  “It is not the critic who counts: not the person who points out how the strong stumble or where the doer of deeds could have done better.\u201d\u2026.. \u201cThe credit belongs to the person who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming.\u201d  Whether your team won or lost its last game, Kudos to you for being \u201cin the arena\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

* Our weather has been wonderful and looks to be windy with low humidity this week.  A downside is flammable vegetation so we have fire dangers, please be very careful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Saturday Sue and I went to Winter Show, toured displays, checked food vendor offerings (smelled great!) and of course visited with friends.  It was fun seeing the parking lots full and the bleachers appeared \u201cpacked\u201d for the Rodeo performance.  Sunday morning we enjoyed Cowboy Church and coffee in the South Exhibit Building.  Thank you to all who facilitated the 88th North Dakota Winter Show.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For musicians and we older folks, you may want to see PBS\u2019 \u201cDeconstruction of the Beatles\u201d.  Trivia, if I heard correctly, the Beatles last performed for a paying audience in 1966!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thank you to all who provide and proof material for this column.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWhen I started counting my Blessings, my whole world turned around.\u201d <\/strong>~ Willie Nelson<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

        <\/em>Blessings, Pray, be Respectful and Grateful,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
