Mauri’s essentials ready to go.
They wouldn’t want to forget anything.
In it goes.
The fillet knife, just in case someone catches something edible.
Packing champions!
The hopeful trio, off on their adventure. If only I could remember where they were going.

We won’t complain that it wasn’t exactly sunny on the day we chose to drive to the beach. We all returned with a little bit of pink skin, so we know the sun was up there somewhere. There’s sand at Pacific City and that, along with a sea full of water, made for an afternoon’s [...]

Look who showed up at the office today! Okay, so it wasn’t a surprise, since we had already driven to the airport to pick up these dear Andersons (notice the dad is missing, back in Denver working).
One by one these “stokers” did drive-bys on their way out to see the town.
First Bailey…
…then Cassidy…
…and finally [...]

Yesterday I posted our “Just Mauried” getaway car. Today on the streets of Portland we saw a van with the words “Finally Divorced” painted on the back window. Funny and sad, both.

On or near every Mothers Day, Quinn and I exchange Mothers Day stockings. We started this tradition when it became apparent the two of us had no boundaries regarding our Christmas stocking shopping for each other. This excessive behavior holds roots dating back to her family of origin, the evidence captured on video and now [...]

Why is Erin jumping for joy? On Tuesday she and her book’s coauthor, Tiffany Wilding-White, signed their contract with McGraw-Hill, and today…[insert fanfare]…the final manuscript for Golfing with Your Eyes Closed went out in the mail!
We’re just a little bit proud of her.

I’m glad my dad doesn’t have to celebrate his 104th birthday today. This isn’t a commentary on people who live that long. Some make longevity a goal, and anyone who lives past the century mark should be congratulated. My dad packed more than a century worth of life into his 92 years, so when he [...]

You probably already know this about me—I love pictures! Any time I have an excuse to meander through my files and files of digital pictures or page through my albums (the kind you can hold in your hands), I sideline all other projects to give my attention fully to my beloved photos. Compulsive, some might [...]
