And this is in Billings, MT in 2008, still as beautiful as the day I married her.

This morning started with coffee, lots and lots of coffee. Anything to wake up. 7:30 is just too early for any sane person to awaken.

Of course then, some might ask why it’s a problem for me?

Jan and I headed down to the Vendor building about 8:30 to check out the doughnut selection and then Jan headed off to her 9am seminar while I went back to the rig to finish stapling the handouts for my seminar at 1:30.

About noon I picked up Jan from her second class and then rather than going back to the rig, we decided that the cold, rainy weather called for more Chicken Tortilla Soup so it was off to La Carreta again.

Getting back to the fairgrounds a little after 1pm, we got set up for my seminar on the “Do’s and Don’ts of Computer Security”, We ended up with 35 people in the class and once again had a lot of good questions, and hopefully some good answers. At least everyone seemed to be happy with the class..

After resting up and talking with our daughter Brandi, we headed back down to the meeting room for Pizza Night.

It’s always amazing how Miss Terry has everything organized so that several hundred people get served their pizza in just a few minutes.

After everyone had their fill, it was time for the much-anticipated Buckeye Beauty Contest.

Buckeye Beauties 1

First off, Nick modeled the latest in beach attire for the chunky stud muffin. Doesn’t he look handsome . . . pretty . . . whatever.

Buckeye Beauties 2

There were six entries in this year’s pageant, a fine selection of pulchritudinous womanhood. Why, any man would be proud to have one of these ladies on his arm.

Here’s Nick during the Interview session with one contestant. I think that hat came from Target’s new Lady GaGa line.

And here’s Nick crowning this year’s winner, Rachel Rupugness. That’s one fine looking woman . . . er . . . man . . . er . . . whatever.

I’m very confused right now.
