Home.
Love where I live.

Looks like these guys made the video about December, 2011.
The first minute was filmed about 20 miles south of town.
Everything else is within about 5 miles of town.

It's an amazing place.

As strange as it may seem, photos and video don't fully capture the beauty.

The 13 year old finally got that confounded bite plate out today, and the 10 year old came by after school to wait on his brother and Mom to get done at the orthodontist. He made origami animals for everyone.
Sure, it's small. But during tax season, every little ray of sunshine is welcome.

The first flower blossom from my pink cloud flowering cherry. Lots of love went into planting her in the fall because no tree planted here before survived. I tilled about a 20' diameter 2' deep, added soil amendment and alpaca poo and hoped for the best.

I remember when your Dad retired, and I was a (relatively) young SF soldier.
Our times all come, eventually. The chapters end and new ones begin.
Congratulations, I hope you find the transition painless and a prosperous future.

My mother remains fit and healthy as she ages.
And she's getting faster.
She ran a 22:36 in a women-only 5k race today (about 7:18 minutes per mile).
Took third place overall.
The race had mainly a mixture of fitness buffs rather than dedicated runners.
Nonetheless, at nearly 66 years old, she was proud to represent "pre-Title IX" women.

Good for her!
My 73 y/o mother recently went zip-lining through a Mexican forest after riding a donkey to get there.
Gotta love these ladies and their idea of "old age."

Another day done at the "office".
Spent much of the workday sitting in my cubicle, staring out the window.
Fortunately, the cubicle has wheels and the views out the window were pretty good for the better part of 300 miles.
