Who says a girl needs a ring? I think Veronica would be more than happy to show off the key that starts this car as an engagement present. I think I better start saving my pennies.

A "Wii" Accident

«« prev | next »»



How many girls do you know that have a video game party for their birthday? Kendra did. Pretty cool. Here she is showing where I accidently whacked her with a Wii remote during tennis. Thanks for having us. More pics here .

-It is also Melissa's birthday today. I feel bad that I haven't got her anything yet. But I suppose the best gift I can give her tonight is being in bed before 6am.

Rheostatics Last Show

«« prev | next »»





For some reason I decided to leave the big camera at home for the Rheos last show. So here are a couple of blurry pics. What a great show, though. It's a shame to see this lineup break up.

Penultimate Rheostatics Show

«« prev | next »»











We went down to the Horseshoe tavern last night to see The Rheostatics warm up for their farewell show tonight. Not some of my best shots, but this was the first time I have shot with this camera in such a crowded dimly lit bar.

Baby Clothes

When Ryan's mom went to dig out her wedding dress, she had to get through 2 kids' worth of baby clothes. A lot of people we know have babies on the way. So, to them, we dedicate this picture of Ryan's baby clothes.

Back on the "Q"

«« prev | next »»



Yes folks, we've been hitting the Nyquil pretty hard. We are both bedridden with the flu. I am just posting this as I wait for my shift to sleep. We have developed this system of sleeping in shifts so we dont have to listen to the other moaning, coughing, hacking, yacking and all around fidgeting. Pretty ingenious eh?

Locksmith for hire...

Slowly, but surely, things are coming together at the new house.
My upper body is all stiff from sanding.
Neil, that stripping gel works ok, but is certainly not economically feasible.
This is a shot of Melissa changing the deadbolts.

Many Apologies for this hideous Blogger "NavBar" that you now see up top. It is a byproduct of Google taking over Blogger. When you upgrade to the new Google version they "say" that your template won't change. Well...except for the NavBar that you have already removed. -sigh- eventually somebody will come up with code to get rid of it.
