Well Hello everybody! We just celebrated 31 years of marriage today and what a ride it has been!

We have officially entered a new chapter in our lives. We finally have a clean AND organized garage. And what a wonderful thing it is. Take a look . . .



Notice the Clean work bench! Notice the roll out storage bin underneath .

We even park a vehicle in it EVERY day!!!! For those who know us well, you know what a shocker this really is.












It is light years away from "No Daddy not the garage!" (a little family joke.)

You KNOW how I LOVE FISH ! ! !

Just off the boat this morning. One of the guys at work, Scott Estep, managed to bag 18 fish. Some Yellow Tail Tuna & some Yellow Fin Tuna - there is a difference. They averaged about 20 lbs. each. Scott was very generous and we each walked away with one of each. Here is our fillet party!












You might want to zoom in on this next shot!

And after ALL that blood and guts.... NOT A DROP on me!

Now why can't I do that at the dinner table?

Hi All,

Here we are in sunny So. Cal. vacationing in our own local mountains - Big Bear. The weather was wonderful, 78 during the day, cool nights, clear skies. What more could you ask for. Our accommodations were very nice. We spent our days laying around, hiking & drive around the lake, movie (Mama Mia,) kayaking, etc. Check out the pics.

What's a vacation without SHOPPING!!!

and fine dining,

and hiking .

Hiking the South Shore.

Hiking the North Shore.

Cathy's Cottages - Our accommodations.

And of course KAYAKING ! ! !

Well it's official. Our son, Tim, and his new bride, Debra, were married Sat. Mar. 15, 2008 in a little church in Templeton, CA. We are overjoyed. Debra is a wonderful addition to the family. You can get more info in the coming weeks at timanddebra.blogspot.com

We would like to thank ALL who were able to attend the ceremonies. We are truly grateful for the many friends and family members that helped make it such a special day for Tim and Debra.

It's not much. But, it's a start!
