GO COUGARS!

Before you call for my banishment from the family, an explanation is in order. This photo was taken while we were at Yosemite by our friendly BYU friends. The ORIGINAL photo was of a lovely family displaying their TRUE colors (Crimson and White) flanked by a Utah flag attached to a red and white tent. Well, said BYU friends doctored the photo in an attempt to even the score from the sticker we put on their car. Yes, it was immature, but slightly humorous nonetheless. If ANYBODY EVER questions our loyalty to the U again, count your face as having a date with my fist.

Bathroom is finally done. Finally.

Bathroom is finally done. Now emma can have hers back. We totally gutted the old bathroom. Nothing remains that was once there. except the ceiling.

This was the most painful part of the whole project, getting the crown molding up in this nasty corner. I cut up about 18 meters of molding trying to get it right.





Storage cabinet.

Here is captain sink.

Shower with towel warmer. Mr. Towel warmer is also the means of heating the room.

Sink cabinets. You can see various sundries on the counter.


Another view of mr. shower. Alcove in the back makes a nice home for soap and shampoo.

Weekend Adventure

This past weekend we met some old friends of ours from Virginia at Yosemite Natl. Park. They are huge BYU fans, so of course, we had to represent. We woke up the first morning there all wearing Utah apparell, put a U flag on our tent, and just before we left on Sunday, slapped a "Go Utes" sticker on their suburban (Adrienne's idea). Yosemite has to be the most beautiful place I have ever been. If you ever get a chance to go, do it! While we were hiking, Danny kept asking where the hippos and monkeys were.

Where's Benny??

Check out Montpelier - what a beauty

NINJA'S in the Spring

When Ninjas Attack!
Every year, when spring comes, my mind goes to one place and one place only, Ninjas.


Every time you read about Ninja’s attacking somebody or assassinating some public figure, it seems to happen in the spring. I’m not sure why, it’s just the way it is.


Maybe it’s the fact that the spring is traditionally the new year in most pagan religions. It is also the Persian festival, “Naw Ruz” or “New Year”.


Whether it is a throwing star to the neck at a bowling alley, a poison spike that sails through an open window and lodges itself in the fleshy part of the leg, or a mysterious black-clad figure with a bo staff, perched up on the ceiling of your garage as you pull in your car from your awesome job, ninja attacks can and will happen anywhere and anytime.


And they happen to the best people too. Just ask my cousin Heindl. She has lost 12% hearing in her left ear from one.


Things to remember:

Be alert. Everybody loves a lert. (Ziggy joke)


Check ceilings first, when doing your safety inspections, that’s where they like to ‘hang’.


The best defense against a ‘shuriken’ or throwing star is a good offense. Also, armor.


You will never beat a ninja at a sword fight, one on one. When the Ninja draws his sword, fire your taser ™. A well placed taser ™ will take out even the most deadly of ninjas.


Show them that you know they’re there. Shout out, when entering a new locale or a suspicious locale, “I know you’re there, Mr. Ninja. Your element of surprise has now been taken away” [I’ve gotten many ‘funny’ looks for this kind of preparedness, but so be it. That is a risk I’m willing to take. Are YOU!?]


But most importantly, remember that a Ninja is only trying to kill you if someone has hired that ninja to do so. So for every ass-kicking Ninja trying to take someone out there is some alienated girlfriend, some enemy rival at the workplace or some Japanese feudal lord who has paid that Ninja to kill. Or worse.


I hope this web log has made your spring a more beautiful and restful time. That was the author’s intent. Also, fear.

Desert Pugs

Good work Becky with setting this up...Today in the beautiful city of Lancaster, CA, the weather is: Sunny and windy, with a nice brown haze developing, resulting in excess coughing and watery eyes as little bits of sand set up residence under your eyelids...man I love this place!

Last Saturday I was conned into going on a 30 mile bike ride with some of the YM from our ward...my legs still hurt...but not as bad as my ego after I went sailing over my handle bars into the dirt after attempting to showcase my bicycle skills to the young lads.

Dave, I saw Grandpa Jim Bob Bob Bob last weekend at the Lancaster City Poppy Festival. He was manning a booth selling home-made coasters made out of old bottle caps. He said to say "Hi."
