Yes,good choice. We may even be able to stop by Eufaula on our way. Edgardo would like that.

If by 'crash' you mean 'restock the liquor cabinet', then maybe.

Destin!!!! that's within driving distance for us....can a couple of Young's crash Ohler-rama or is that not allowed?i'm new to the family so i don't know the rules. But i do know that area is super pretty and my company does a lot of work there.

Sweet, still haven't been to Florida yet.

That looks excellent. Thanks for all the work! Maybe I'll share it with my family for a future reunion on the Ray side.

No objections

Nice work on moving this thing forward.

V & Matto, Our #1 choice did have 2 community pools, one of which is pretty much right next to the house. The beach is within walking distance with easy pedestrian access over highway 98. There is a play-pen for any infants, and a great big area on the 3rd floor for kids to play. The owner stated several times what a great location it is for a large family. The contract should be delivered this afternoon.

Ohlers, here is what we are looking at reserving. Let me know if you have any major objections.

Best,
AO

Great last evening out. We went to the second tallest building in Shanghai. There's a Hyatt hotel from the 54th to 84th floors. It's a rather spectacular building with an open section through about thirty floors. Then we went up to the 87th floor, Cloud 9 bar, for the view. It was fantastic. We were real close to the Shanghai Pearl (a tv tower, but like none I've seen before) and right next door to the tallest building in Shanghai, a 100 story structure. We could also see the colonial section across the river. More lights than you'd see in Vegas I think. We have to leave the hotel by 7 a.m. in the morning so we're heading off to bed.

glad you had fun Mom. Hope you're taking a nap. Paul has invited us for one last sight-seeing adventure to the top of one of the tall buildings tonight. And I'm done with presentations...yea! See ya soon.

I went out to shop one last time this morning, spent more money than I planned to and had a great time. I'm back at the hotel now and debating whether to take a nap or eat lunch. Since we were awake at 3:30 a.m. this morning, I've already put in an eight hour day.

Congrats Brandon & Rita!

Did I call that one Rita? Congratulations to Brandon, but the move is definitely in the wrong direction, for your folks too.

We went to a Chinese wedding yesterday. It was at the restaurant where we had supper with a couple from Sarah's office. Interesting evening.

Congratulations Brandon. We're excited to visit Dayton!

Brandon got a promotion at work so after the first of the year, we'll be looking for houses in the Dayton Ohio area.

Just got back from a trip to Yu Gardens, the Bund, Nanjing Road, and the Peoples Square. Sarah did a great job of shopping, I didn't do as well, but I'd gotten a bunch on previous trips. It's been a fun trip, just one more day on my own and then we head back to Pittsburgh

Any suggestions on buying a used car?

She's doing volleyball warm-ups.

Just trying to get the baby the spinach it is asking for. That is why it keeps kicking me, right?

because she's eating baby food already!

Why does Rita look green?

I worked with an Oehler at Motorola. People used to drop her printouts on my desk, even though they said "loehler".

We had a fun dinner with Sara S. Nice long talk about everything. And she took us to a great restaurant which we never would have found otherwise.

Yes I definitely had more fun than Sarah did, but I did a bunch of shopping for both of us. I learned about fresh water pearls, jade, silk, double sided silk embroidery (this is amazing), and lots more. The only way the day could have been better is if Sarah had been with me. I can't wait to post pictures.

Here we come here we go....

hi from wii

at work. Mom went on a tour today. Hope she's having more fun than I am.
