An Animated History of Aviation
Many of you know of my love for all things aviation if so you’ll realize why I liked this animation so much.

Palo Duro Canyon
As some of you know I was in Amarillo, TX last week for some work meetings. Due to flight times and other factors I ended up staying over Friday and had some rare time off while I was out of town.
So I took the opportunity to drive out to Palo Duro Canyon state park. This canyon is the second largest in the world, the only one bigger is of course the Grand Canyon (now I’ve seen them both). Palo Duro is much different because you can drive down into and a long way through the canyon. It is however equally beautiful in its own way.
Hope you enjoy the photos.

Greetings and Salutations Faithful Stapleton Blog Readers!
Just wanted to publish a quick post and let you know that the Jake Stapleton web dynasty has split again.

Jakestapleton.com will now revert back to content that he deems worthy to publish, however Jake’s political opinions will still reside at Jakesopinion.com
So please make note in the browser of your choice and happy reading!
Apparently I Have Always Been A Male Model
I arrived home this week from my business travels to a birthday card from my sister Nancy. Apparently she picked it up back in February and had been holding it every since. The picture on the front of the card caught her eye (for obvious reasons) and she knew it was the card for me.
The card has further bolstered the notion that I should pursue one of my dreams to be a male model. I can just see the ad campaign now, a picture of me, a little Barry White in the back ground, and underwear with a cape.
