We (me, Petra, Larry, and Robin) got up the morning of October 12th and hit the road. Well, not literally. But we had a long 5-6 hour drive ahead to the Grand Canyon. Along the way we stopped in Williams on legendary Route 66 and had a picnic lunch. We stopped at a coffee shop there [...]

Family, friends, and fellow blogaholics -
I don’t ask you for a favor very often. But I’m asking for one now. I’m asking you to please vote NO on Proposition 8.

Happy Birthday, Mom.

How do you like our brick? Sort of speaks for itself, don’t you think? We bought it for two reasons: 1) It is a great, semi-permanent way to show our grandkids that we love them and are thinking of them and 2) The money went to a very good cause, the local kids attraction Fairytale [...]
