Hey Doughers, feel like a lunch party on Saturday? Merel asked about setting up Skype on the TV to chat around 1:00 PM, and I thought I could throw a lunch in there as well. That is if you're around. I'll even supply the computer adapter and mouse.

But now I'm thinking you said you were busy Saturday, so Sunday could work too. Whichever.

Who is posting those old photos? I thought what happened at Rita's party stayed at Rita's party... Thankfully it is fuzzy!

one last post before the battery dies. can anyone tell me where I safely put away my computer adapter and mouse? I need it before

That's the beer I had at the restaurant in Texas.

That's Sunday in Kentucky at the Red River Gorge. Cool weekend, great weather for camping, a camp fire, and afternoon hikes.

Leanne is my FB friend.

Racine Ohlers, thanks for the letter. It was a nice treat with the bills!

Another great day in San Francisco. The first pictures was my Seafood Ciappino down at Fisherman's Wharf. The second was Gianna getting really bored with being in a restaurant and the last was the sea lions down at Pier 39.
We also went to Coit Tower, visited the Italian area where Sandy used to live and walked through China Town.
We've figured out there's a couple of fabric stores and another book store about a mile from here. I'm debating if I have the energy left to walk up there tonight or if I'll wait until morning to do it. A lot of it is uphill so I'm leaning towards waiting til tomorrow.

I don't have Leanne's e-mail address

It's been in the 60's out here in San Francisco and so far the threatened rain has held off so we've gotten to do lots of outdoor things. Hope the rain holds off a couple of more days.

I'm trying out the "work from home while girls are off school to avoid daycare expenses" today. So far its going very well. Makes me proud of them and fortunate that I have a flexible job.

You can watch Frank's performance in Spokane! This is from the preliminary round. They took first place in their division!

That is a spectacular photo.

That was Bruce Weber and the entire Illinois basketball team about 10 rows in front of us yesterday at the game.

I am not sure what game we are playing in the picture below, but since it is not a basketball game we can not be playing find Bill Rucks.

80 in October? You still have to run your air conditioner and put ice cubes in your drinks? Outrageous...

What are you guys doing to those kids??? They have to wear winter coats and
hats in October! You guys should really consider moving to eastern NC :O) It
was mid 80's today... what a perfect fall day! :O)

Who gave Chewie a user account?

Really? All of us? Really? Arf.

So we got another 3-5" overnight and it's still snowing. It's going to be a little slow going for Mom, Sandy, and Gianna heading to San Fran....and for us heading over to Spokane. All of us are at least heading to warmer weather.

Hi all, Just wanted to let you know that i have the disk with all the pictures the photographer took at the wedding. if there were some you wanted let me know and I'll send it/them your way.

Perfect day at Yellowstone. We saw mountain goats and a wolf on the way to the park, bison, moose, and elk in the park. Then old faithful waited until we'd walked up the path to it before it went off, and ten minutes later we watched Beehive go off, higher and longer than Old Faithful (Beehive only goes off once a day). Sandy and I decided we were doing something right to have such a perfect visit.

it would be an accident for me to be in a workout room

mso: Accidents of me being in the workout room of a hotel when a major league team is at the end of a big game don't happen too often.

ro - we do. unfortuneately, that is more than I am willing to pay.

rsj - if you guys wanted to come back up for the playoffs tickets are going about $220 right now.

Still waiting for mom to post when the Cubs win. ah that only took a day.

yes V, four days late.

Brandon: I tried to text you, but my phone doesn't like this hotel. I watched the 12th inning tonight. Had to let you know I saw the twins win!

The weather was great today, we managed to hike in the badlands a little (the picture below) and saw Mt. Rushmore in the snow. Gianna has a coat and lots of blankets so she's made out okay. I may be looking for another layer if Bozeman is any colder than here. We're hoping for another perfect day down in Yellowstone on Thursday.
