Welcome To Josh's Homepage

Welcome to Josh's Homepage! This is my website devoted to all things Josh! I initially created this site to house my interest in the American Space program, but since its first inception it has gone through some pretty varied permutations. I am sure that it will continue to do so. You can navigate to the different pages by utilizing the links to the left, or in some instances across the top. If you get lost just type, hua.iwarp.com in your address bar to come right back HOME!

I will attempt to summarize where each of the links takes you, please bear with me and enjoy the ride!

My Blog
The My Blog page is just that. A blog. Blog, being short for Weblog, is a concept that I attempted and would like to attempt again. And again. And Again....Work in progress.

Campgrounds
The Campgrounds page is a database of all of the camping trips, and campgrounds that my family has taken since 1998. Since I started collecting data, the camp site requirements and opinions have changed. This is due in part to us upgrading from Tents to a Pop-Up, a Hybrid Travel Trailer and now to a 35' Travel Trailer! It is a fun portal to some good memories and lively discussion when some folks forget if and when we stayed at a particular campground!

Challenges
The Challenges page is a journal site of sorts. I have been competing in virtual challenges by walking along a few real life landmarks and monuments. I have "walked" from Cairo to the Great Pyramid of Giza and along the Great Wall of China! I am gearing up to walk the One Ring from the Shire all the way to Mordor as well! Once I finish that I am eyeing a short jaunt through Agkor Wat! These pages journal my progress and contain the postcards sent to me through the Conqueror site! Come along with me and share in my adventures!

Databases
The Databases page is a portal to my ever growing collections of Movies, Music, Video Games and MORE! This is just a simple hub page to my various collections of items that I treasure and display in my home. It also serves to help me when I am out and about shopping for more to bring to their new forever home!

Family Tree
The My Family Tree page is a portal to my ever growing and changing genealogy site for the Thomas, Van Sickle and all connected families! It is always under construction so if a link or two doesn't work today, come back tomorrow for it might be fixed!

Godzilla
The Godzilla page contains my data collection of classic Godzilla ephemera. I have posters and pages of information regarding the different monsters that Godzilla has fought through the years. From allies to enemies, 1954 - present day, I have cataloged them all!

Gunfighters
The Gunfighters page contains information regarding the most famous and infamous gunfighters of the old west! From Bat Masterson to Wild Bill Hickock, read about their fights and view some pretty awesome artwork!

Iron Maiden
The Iron Maiden page is another portal to my ever growing love of the British rock band, Iron Maiden! It contains an album list with covers along with pas and present band rosters!

Space Page
The Space Page is a collection of information regarding the American Space program. There is information from the brave Mercury program to the international Apollo-Soyuz missions! This page also contains information regarding mission parameters, mission patches, and even some pages about the rockets that took our intrepid explorers to the stars!

Stories
The Stories page contains some of the short work fiction that I have written over the years. Some are good and some are bad. please feel free to read them and be gentle! There is also a link to Amazon.com for my first published novel! It's called Home Bound: A Story of Survival. Get a copy please leave a review to let me know what you think!

Wood Working
The Wood Working page is a new idea to document and catalog all of the wood projects that I have completed over my lifetime. From high school (Freshman, Sophomore, Junior and Senior) and beyond into adult hood. I am trying to have a page dedicated to each project and a little write up along with it. Some of the projects may even include photos and a sketchup diagram file for anyone else who would like to try their hand at building one of these items.

Video Games
The Video Games page contains the various maps and checklist for some of my favorite and well played games. From the NES, SNES all the way to the GBA and GameCube. It is a work in progress and may contain a few lists/maps for some XBOX games!

PIPs
The Pages In Progress page is a simple table of statuses for the pages that are in either being created/updated/renovated. It is mostly my own way of keeping track of the site and which pages still need attention. Too many balls in the air for this old juggler!
