DC update

I'm in DC - Visit with Dad and Grace.
The old home and lake etc. are green lush and nice.
Did a little visit to DC mall and the new WW2 memorial.

Mom tells me that Thomas got his Orange Belt! Cool.

More later. Next Stop New York! K

little boat - big boat Fly away

Big boat is in repair yard. No fish local anyway.

Ryan's little rubber boat is in the water and he has now taken some pals for a few boat rides. Very big of him... Had to rub him a little to get him to take care of Flush and Cleaning of the motor. He get's it now.

I got that new job I wanted. It takes a monster amount of my time. Will get a plane to NY and DC tomorrow for a week. I'm hoping to line up a boat ride for when I get back for a special weekend. Wolf Pack trip.

Take care. I hugged my boys extra good tonight before my trip. Told them I look forward to goin' out on a visit to Grandma's and a Baseball game in Ontario when we I get back.

At Kenpo they tell the boys they want them to try for the orange belt. Cool. They may get it on Sat. while I'm in DC.

Hope United gets a good pass this weekend. I'm off.

catching up

Ho boy have I got some catching up to do here.

Kids in Sailing... Thomas turtled 2 times on the first day out with his own boat. (borrowed USSabot)

Dad changed jobs AND got a new car.

Mom upgraded bedroom furniture. Did a great job painting the boats and helping to prep them for patching/fiberglass repair/filler/sanding/cleaning etc.

Thomas turnes 8 this week. Good Stuff.

New job is a tough one with a demanding boss. Wants long hours and total control over lots of diverse parts of the work load and picky stuff. Position is very good on a lot of levels. So I am looking forward to the challenge. Today was the first day this month (July 12) that I got to do a Kenpo work out as I have been that busy with all the above.

I'll be back. Maybe have a report on Thomas' B Day.
