Cabin - Fall 2011

  • Quick Snack
    The cabin is always fun, but it sure is colorful in Fall. I went with mom & dad in late September and in late October to work on some projects upstairs.

Kelly Turns 3

  • Human Lawnmower
    Happy Birthday to Kelly! You would never know this was October. It was WARM and provided a perfect opportunity to celebrate outside.

June '11 in Colorado

  • d. Couldn't Resist
    Off to visit Joan to help her paint her kitchen. This is the first trip I've taken where I didn't bring a camera and relied solely on my phone's camera. In fairness, this is the first time I've had a phone with a camera. We saw a lot of stuff but only photographed a small portion of it. We were just too busy!

The National Zoo

  • One Big Happy Family
    The zoo was a nice little walk from our hotel and I went there twice. I was there in the late afternoon but left shortly after getting there since it was nearly deserted and a bit creepy. The 2nd time was in the morning and it was buzzing with activity.

Spring in Washington DC 2011

  • Capitol Hill in Spring
    I wanted a separate album to capture the beauty of Spring in DC. We had days of sunshine and days of rain but the marks of Spring were EVERYWHERE!

Dizzyland

Today I devoted a chunk of time to downloading photos from my phone to my computer.  I had pictures on there from the past six months and it was time to start deleting but not until I stored them safely.

Camera Pictures 788Most recently I had a few shots of last Friday's visit to Dizzyland, all decked out for Halloween. 

While we were in line for the Haunted Mansion I couldn't help but enjoy the landscaping.  They are so clever!  Camera Pictures 794I enjoyed the use of succulents and ground cover to draw attention to pieces.  One day I'm going to have to try some of it.

Camera Pictures 795Maybe next year we'll have a little pumpkin scene in our side yard where we can enjoy it each night with lights and such.  I'm not decorating for Halloween so much anymore, but jack-o-lanterns and some cats have to be a good exception.

Camera Pictures 805I barely had time to snap this at the Matterhorn, our last ride.  We even went through the gate with the St. Gallen flag!  I'm still grinning from that ride; what fun!

Camera Pictures 793Hey, how did a picture of our house get in here?  Oh, wait...

Denver With Joan Dec '10

  • Farewell!
    Joan and I agreed on an unusual trip. I would fly to Denver but instead of going to her home we would spend the weekend together in downtown Denver to enjoy the festivities and atmosphere of the 16th Street Mall. We had a fantastic long weekend. I loved being in a town where you don't need a car (though we had one). We either walked or took a free shuttle/bus where we needed to go. We will DEFINITELY have to do that again! There was no snow but it was magical nonetheless and, as Joan wisely noted, snow could have been a problem anyway. There was no risk of my flights being delayed or canceled and we got to enjoy roaming around with ease. Yes, it was very cold but that added to the atmosphere.

Keri's Christmas Concert 2010

  • Kelly Busies Herself
    Keri's school put on a Christmas Concert. Each class stood together and different classes participated in different songs. It was a real delight to see the kids and to enjoy Keri's enthusiastic singing. There were hand movements for several songs and it was just a nice, fun evening. Just yesterday mom played the video of the concert; it was professionally recorded from a booth at the back of the church and it was a fun reminder of that evening. If you click on the first photo, you'll see a larger version and from then you can just hit "next" to continue.

Celebrating 50

  • Home Again
    The girls agreed turning 50 was special so we arranged a weekend in Palm Springs. Joanne flew down from Washington and Kathy drove the five of us to Palm Springs for a fabulous weekend of gabbing, eating, shopping, and relaxing.
