Henry's Birthday

We attended Henry's official coming-out birthday party and did that boy ever enjoy every crumb of his cake. One of the more impressive performances we have seen.

Tooth Fairy Time

Seems like all the grandkids are losing their teeth all at once. Here are Emmett and Olivia. Guess that is better than losing their minds - like us.


New Camera

After much research and listening to the advice of those in the know, we decided to upgrade our camera to the new Canon 60D. After a couple of months of playing around with it, we are very pleased with the results. What incredible advances these digital cameras have undergone in such a short period of time. What will the next 10 years bring? It will be fun to see it unfold.





World 100 List


A newly defined aspect of my bucket list is the finalization of the 100 places that I want to see outside of the United States. This list is now on the right side of the blog. I have, as of this posting, completed 43 of the 100. We had better hit the road!

Bucket List Update


Wow - 2010 ended on quite a high note for my bucket list. Let's see, there was: 1) the camel ride (Morocco), 2) visiting my 7th and last continent (Antarctica), 3) hiking a slot canyon (Petra), 4) floating in the Dead Sea, and 5) rounding Cape Horn in a ship. I only have 33 left to go of my original 100 bucket list items.
