Hi all,
I thought I'd better get some Yosemite/guys trip photos up before the girls upload their NY pics. So, in this photo, we were at a scenic lookout point, and dad had his leg up on a stone wall, supporting my massive binoculars. Standing very close to him was a European guy and his lady. At that exact moment, dad let go one of the loudest farts I've ever heard! People a few miles away on Half Dome almost fell. The euro guy muttered something like, "Damned Americans," and he and his girl left. This was a priceless moment Greg, Adam, and I won't soon forget!
I've missed blogging! Good to hear a little blurb from Kyle and Adam. Well, we finally did it! Dad and I went to Costco and bought us a new TV--and it's awesome. We got a nice Sony 52-in flat screen. Tomorrow we'll get the HD hooked up. Even without being hooked up to HD, it's so much better than the old one. Our neighbor helped Dad get it put up. Now the upstairs is looking good, what with new carpet, paint, TV and soon to be leather recliner. Our 3 days in San Francisco last week were fun. We went to a crazy show that's been ongoing for 40 years there--Beach Blanket Babylon. We also saw Mama Mia and hit some good restaurants, plus a bus tour of the city. The weather was unseasonably warm, too--mid eighties to near 90. Dad's doing a good job of losing weight--ten plus lbs. gone without too much effort--just cutting way down on sugar and smaller portions. So, all of us in the family needing to lose some poundage, let's get serious and get healthy! I'm looking forward to a few weeks at home until our New York trip, which I'm SO excited about--can't wait! Hopefully some pics of Yosemite will be coming to you soon. Dad took some good ones, but hasn't quite figured out how to post them. Let's hear from everyone on the blog! Love Mom
