Update for Tyler and Meghan








Notice to those of you who check out our blog from time to time: We are at home now and nothing very exciting is going on in our lives but we would like to keep Tyler and Meghan updated as they travel around the world (they are now somewhere in China). They have odd internet access and it is easier for them to view photos and videos on the blog than it would be if I just attached them to an e-mail, so essentially a lot of our entries are meant for them, but of course any and all are welcome to take a peek at our lives, boring though they may be.

So... Last weekend we went to Portland for Kaylin's 4th Birthday Party and for a very nice Memorial Service that Mom organized for the family. We all watched the beautiful DVD that Mom made of her mother's life, then we all went out to the farm and planted an apple tree in remembrance and then scattered Millie's ashes around the farm. It was a wonderful, moving event.

Zongo's Excellent Vacation






This past week we have had the honor of hosting my brother David (Zongo to many of you) and his wife Cyndi. It's always good to see them and this time was no exception. Dave is always so funny because he is amazed at how cold it gets in Klamath, having lived his entire life in Southern Cal. He was frazzled when he arrived as it had been snowing. He was amazed there was ice on his window one morning. He really is almost "cute" as he adjusts to our weather, our wild quail and all things Klamath.
His two main interests seem to be sports and gardening. We watched Tiger collapse, the Lakers win and the best part...he loves to pull weeds! Yeah our yard always looks great after a visit from Dave. I'll include some photos of his idea of a vacation (we LOVE it).
Yep, Zongo is a bit goofy but we love him.

His other great interest is golf. He's pretty good! He and Sheryl make a good team and seem to always have fun hitting the links. Cyndi and I had a beautiful day to go up to Crater Lake while the other pair were at Shield Crest.
