A new beginning
Sep 12th, 2010 by Barry

We’ve tried to keep this site up-to-date in the past, but haven’t done a very good job at it.  Since there’s been a lot going on this summer, we’ve decided to turn it over to the kids and let them run it.  We’ll see how things turn out!

canning:: journey of one peach
Sep 12th, 2010 by Brenna

Hi, cyberspace!  Yes, I did not vaporize into a shapeless cloud of steam in a puff of smoke. We– er– forgot that this site even existed for……erm…. Well, let’s say a looooong while. I actually thought that this site was the thing that vaporized.  Well, now that we’ve worked out that I now exist (well in the cyber world again) , we’ll get to the post.

we canned peaches a short while ago, and I am here to make a document of this important event before we forget.

Here goes!

This is the perfect peach. Let’s call it….  Mr. Perfect P.

perfect one Here he is, no holes, bruises, or bad spots, all ready to go  on a journey of a lifetime.

Farewell for now, Mr Perfect Peach!

Climbing Monkeys
May 10th, 2009 by Barry

Well, we have a new favorite pastime.  Jessica bought me a new rope and belay device for my birthday last month, I dusted off the old climbing shoes, and we splurged for a kid-sized set of shoes and harness.  All we had to wait for was the weather to break, (which it mostly did this last weekend) and head off down to the local crag. The Friday’s trip was a blast so we went Saturday too. Good times.
