Clay and I take a break from cultivating the front flower beds

Well I got busy a while back and dug up the front flower beds to get the wild strawberries out. With superb accuracy, I managed to drive that spading fork through two separate pipes of the lawn sprinkler system.

After digging up the beds again and repairing the water pipes, I figured I might as well do it right and "amend" the soil. Luckily Jerry Robinson had his grandsons visiting, and Clay was anxious to help. Now I know how Uncle Bill Standback must have felt when Larry and I used to "help" him! Clay and I did a pretty good day's work out there though! Wonder if he's as tired as I am?

And after all this, Angie decided she had to plant flowers. I think I'm going to quit retirement and go back to work! It was easier!

Santa goes Hawaiian! Mele Kalikimaka (Merry Christmas)

Last year while all the rest of you were shivering around your Christmas trees last year, we headed for warmer climes. The fellow above invited us to celebrate Christmas 2000 in the Islands. As you can see at the side, Waikiki is still going strong! Click on either of the pictures for an index to more pictures from our 2000 Christmas Cruise to Hawaii ! 

The buildings are bigger and the swimsuits smaller on Wakiki!

Must have been funny!

A longtime friend just sent me this picture he once took of Angie and I. He claims it was taken in 1987 at a BBQ / picnic at Ronny Holter's place, although it seems like just a year or so ago to us. Was I EVER REALLY that slim with that much hair?

Yes, the rumors were true! In 2000 we took a three week vacation in the West. Basically we drove out to pick up Angie's sister and her family in San Francisco for a trip to Yosemite. Later we drove on up the coasts of California and Oregon visiting Crater Lake and Mount Rainier along the way. Came back through  Ouray - Silverton - Durango. Then it was off via Pagosa Springs, through the mountains to Taos, and across the plains to Amarillo and home.

Our nephew, Fabian, posted this picture of himself, his mother, grandmother, and aunts Ai Yeh and Hsu Whey on his website. Such a good picture should be spread around, so I'm featuring it here too!
