Cabin - Fall 2011

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

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

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

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

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!

What Goes Up Must Come Down, Right?

It's Fall...it's Summer...it's cool...it's hot. I've made chili a couple of times since September. Each time it's been on a hot day. Then I have "one last" Summer grilling session and it's cold again. Today I put most of my Summer clothes away and now tomorrow it's getting warm again. The Santa Ana winds just started up this evening again. Really?

With the Summer stuff mostly gone, my Fall/Winter clothes are really begging to be warm. Cozy sweaters, jackets, scarves, boots. But nooooo. I'm still in capris, a tshirt and sandals. It's November, for goodness's sake!

I admit I wasn't whining when we enjoyed lovely weather at Disneyland last Friday, but today I am. I hear there might be a chance for rain Friday. Could it really be true?

Denver With Joan Dec '10

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

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

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.

Sue's World

Life, as seen through the eyes of Sue.... Hmmmm... maybe it's more of a snapshot into my life.
