A Perfect Christmas



I am as tired as I've ever been. On Christmas day I played too hard with my Grandson Denver. I only get to see him twice a year and this is the first time he remembered me as his Grandpa Vollrath. I finally found something I'm a expert on. I am a good grandfather. No I'm not perfect at it but I try to be the best Grandpa I can be. All grandchildren are miracles of imagination.

My favorite Moment of the year is when I take a picture with my two Grandchildren on Christmas Day. The pictures are never perfect but the moment is always perfect.

The Real Bridges To Nowhere



The first bridge to nowhere is that bridge to the 21st Century.

Then there is that bridge between the Corporate Campus of Microsoft. Welfare for the rich always goes nowhere. The taxpayers of America were used to fund half the bridge in a system of bribes.

Whale Wednesday; A Nation of Eco-Terrorists?



A new boat to fight the Whale Wars is called Godzilla or the Japanese version of that name. Is Japan a nation of eco-terrorists for killing whales? Is being human make us killers of nature? Are all nations eco-terrorists?

The Snake Story



Part of me thinks the above video is funny and another part of me thinks it's just painful to hear. Turn your volume down if you dare listen to The Snake Story. This is the first visit from my Grand Daughter since she got her glasses, that she's worn the pink goggles for the whole visit. I love you Cordelia.

The Cordelia & Grandpa Show will have a set in part two. It will be a closed set too.

I come from a family of story tellers and the stories flow freely:)

My Little Mouse



I was killing myself trying to make a movie with only two people but then I stopped everything and took time out for Halloween.
It was a cold night so Cordelia was a warm mouse.

30 Seconds



I have had little sleep over the past few weeks to enter a contest on Youtube. All my other projects are suffering for 30 seconds of a mini-movie. The above photo is of the alien backdrop painting for Epic Space. I'll try to get a link up tomorrow but for now you can find it on my channel on Youtube called RobertVollrath.

Caged Lightning

I wasn't going to write another blog entry but being in a car hit by lightning is a very strange thing to have happened. It was like my car was in a cage of lightning and I was blinded by white light for a few seconds as I drove. I didn't even think about stopping the car. I guess I was in shock but I didn't get shocked and I can find nothing wrong with my car. I saw the lighting around my car and heard the thunder at the same time. I don't know why I didn't run off the road.
