Just for Fun

Kier enjoys kicking back and reading in his Spiderman chair.

Ridgebacks, Ridgebacks Everywhere! ... and a lab.

Hello folks, sorry for the delay but, I waited so long to post that I NEEDED to get the new baby announcement out before anything else. We have been a very busy little bunch. The trip to Wisconsin was great. Average high of 78, average low 61... That's right, no triple digits hard to beat that. Beyond the wonderful weather we had a relaxing and belt-loosening time. We drove all over the peninsula.  We visited, Fish Creek, Sister Bay, Sturgeon Bay, Ephram, Sevastopol, Egg Harbor, and Gill's Rock.  But we made our home base in Baileys Harbor.  We visited Bob McGurdy who taught me how to carve, and I got some blanks and tips. So, with a little spare time, and band aids, I'll have some work I can post about.  However, for me the key to the trip was the food.

The "hungry man breakfast" with 2 "big as Lake Michigan" pancakes and a host of assorted meats at the Sandpiper, the fried perch at The Sister Bay Bowl, stuffed french toast and corn beef hash at the White Gull Inn, and finally the Walleye sandwich and lots of Leinenkugel at Weissgerbers. Yeah, had to buy new pants. And lets not forget the beer. New Glarus Breweries Spotted Cow and Fat Squirrel were favorites along with the ever-present Leini Red. The scenery was nice too.  Oh, and Kiernan is an official CheeseHead!

After, the gastric delights of the great north we turn right around and head south. The weekend following our trip to Wisconsin the family (this time including the ridgies) went down to Austin. As seen from the photos in "Kiernan's web albums" we had a ridgeback family reunion.  Of the 8 pups 4 were able to come and visit their Mom, Dad and siblings.  It was a great time.  So good in fact we have already decided to make it a yearly event.  So be on the lookout for more Ridgie fun on August 16th, 2011.

Captain Krunch is gonna be a big brother!

Alright, well I can't get the sono pictures to show, technical difficulties and all. I'll work on getting those and the web album of our Wisconsin pictures loaded.

But, the BIG NEWS is that Tyf and I are expecting another little monkey. We are 14 weeks along. That gives us an estimated due date of March 4, 2011. We are very excited and feel very blessed. Kiernan has been such a good little monster we couldn't wait to add to our family. More info to come.

Thanks Mike, I was just testing to see who was paying attention.
