Happy Father's Day, Dad, and to my brothers as well. I hope you all have a nice relaxing day and are able to do whatever makes you happy. Steve decided to play golf today, so he's having a happy day. Bryan, a special Father's Day wish comes to you, as you are just about to begin this chapter of your life. It's a crazy ride, but well worth the effort, I promise you!! :)
Thank you to everyone who came by to visit me on my "impromptu" visit to the homestead this past week. It was a really nice change of pace for me. I'm not usually a very spontaneous person, but I'm trying to become a bit more spontaneous, since there's no reason for me to sit here alone when Steve's out of town. We'll see if it "took" after this trip. Tom, I haven't talked to Chris yet, since he's been out of town this weekend, but I promise this week I'll pass on your message to him. (That should get his curiosity up enough to give me a call....;) )
Bill did a great job of finishing up the story of our Alaska cruise with the visit to the glaciers. He had some really great pictures of all the glorious beauty up there. The one shot he didn't get, but Steve did, was a really nice shot of the Dallas Porpoise. As Bill said, they look like a smaller version of an Orca. Here's what Steve got:

We're not sure how deep this one was, but Steve was on the top deck of the ship shooting down into the water. The water was very clear, but definitely different from the water in the Caribbean.
In this picture, the porpoise was just coming back up to the
surface for a breath of air.

One of the beauties of digital photography is that you can just keep shooting until you finally get the shot you were trying for. This time it paid off big time!!
I am so excited for Katie and Bryan. Things are moving along very nicely on the Maddy front and Bryan will be home to experience it VERY soon. YAY and WOO HOO to them!!
I guess that's it for the time being. I hope everyone has a great weekend and let's all try to keep in touch over the next week. I love you all and HAPPY FATHER'S DAY to one and all!!!!

Nice blog... INCREDIBLE pictures!! Maybe next time you'll be spontaneous and come to Abilene... HaHaHa. Just kidding!! Love ya!! :)
Go to Texas!
Don't make me call you and nag.
Thanks for the fathers day wishes. Denny just gave me a card with his famous signature.
Apparently he is now a doctor, since he added some extra letters after his name...
Good blog. great pic's. see you in 2 weeks or so.
I've found that I've become a much better photographer since digital. In the olden days something in side me would start adding up the cost of each shot. I was also afraid that I'd run out of film before something really cool happened. Now I just click away and delete the 90% that are lousy. My only concern is battery life.
This looks like a really cool trip.
I love those wonderful photos!!!! WOW
It is great to be spontaneous and I need to be more so. Have fun and enjoy your freedom to roam and visit.
