That is utah’s slogan, apparently,which is where we are today. We spent the last few days at the grand canyon and lake powell. Both are awe inspiringly beautiful. So much so that I will skip posting the completely inadequate pictures my phone captured. Elliot and Audrey are keeping travel journals. So far Elliot has ended [...]
Today we visited petrified forest national park today. We started in the painted desert area of the park. What desolate, beautiful landscape. After that we moved on to the petrified wood portion of the day. That stuff is just cool. It is amazing how wood like the permineralize type is. The fully petrified type is [...]
Vacation with the family has begun. I am very excited. We are going to see tons of interesting things in the southwest US over the next week.

If you need some assistance developing, deploying and managing a Ruby application, I have the skills you need. If you need someone that can learn your code base and your business processes, [...]
Happy Birthday Elliot! Elliot is five today. He is getting to be a very big boy now. Last Saturday I took him to Elitch Gardens. We spent a great six hours playing. You cannot go wrong with a day of sugar, video games and rides. He is big enough to ride quite a few rides [...]
Happy third birthday Audrey! We had a great day today. First, we got up late – well, I did anyway, and Elliot and Audrey played together nicely while I caught a few extra Zs – and opened presents. The red headed Cabbage Patch doll is the favorite as of this evening, but the Lego were [...]
