Willie and friends in San Francisco


Now I can die happy since I have seen Willie Nelson in concert and he rocked. Looking good at 72, he played for 2 hours straight and then left the stage and never came back. We finished up my trip with a visit to the Japanese Tea Gardens and I can't wait to go back.

It's Not too Far Away


Despite some great spring ski conditions, Tiffany is heading over to Whittier next week to open up the kayak shop. Kittywakes here we come!

From Freezing to Flooding











Well, h0w do you describe such a trip? The temps went from 40 below to 40 above. We went from flying across the top of the ice to crashing through it. We went from having a great time, to having an epic adventure...which was also a great time. We can't wait for next year

Heading North


Extremely John called the other day and said that he needed some advice up at Iniakuk. Sometimes it can be difficult having friends but someday I'm sure he'll return the favor... and I do have a plethora of advice.

Life is Good



Max took to being pulled along like royalty much quicker than I thought. Under his direction, we managed to never actually make it to where we had planned, but instead enjoyed an awesome sunny day snowshoeing along Glacier Creek. With Moses's snowballs tinkling like wind chimes, we spent about 3 hours looking for Mark's mythical place and finally called it a day underneath the hand tram where we scaled up the ravine like seasoned mountain climbers.

Happy St. Patty's!


There is something about celebrating another countries holiday that brings out the best in everyone. St. Patty's Day = Irish car bombs, corned beef and cabbage and of course, good music and dancing. Cinco De Mayo = tequila, need I say more? What American holiday can boast such fun? I can't think of a single one. True to the nature of this lively crowd, I did hear of a certain air guitar contest coming up in April so start practicing!


Little did we know, the night was to take a dark turn...

The Pain



Thanks SuperMom for saving my thumb. No doubt the reason I kept falling over on Saturday was loss of blood , and had nothing to do with Mr. Jameson.

All the kings horses and all the kings men...


couldn't put the drunk Irishmen back together again.

Dear Moses

Hi Moses. We met this blonde hottie in Moab last weekend and thought of you. She enjoys hiking, camping and barking. Best of all she is single!

Her name is Lola and if you want me to give you her number just let me know.

Finishing Touches

With Telepalooza 2007 in full swing, Max puts the finishing touches on Vicky's "Cat Tracks" costume. Unfortunately our table was cursed and no one won a damn thing. Mark did however keep us entertained when he thought he heard his name called, went up to claim the prize, but it turned out they had called for Jessica Simpson instead.

Mr Beloved

Sadly, Mr B joined Nina and Andy today, chasing butterflies in the sky. He was a good friend, and I am certain that he is catching voles in the cloudscapes of Heaven.

The special guest at this year's event is me and you all can figure out where to host the event and all that good stuff.

Now get to bidness'

Baggin Pyramid

Its been almost a week since Phillip, Tiffany, Dan and I scaled the coveted peak.. To be honest I didn't think it would happen due to high winds expected that day and an intimidating monster cornice, but through Tiffanys brilliant suggestion, we found a way to ski the north face and I nearly soiled myself. Thanks guys for putting the fear of god in me, it was worth it.

Happy 13th Rubyn!!



Rubyn got banana pancakes for breakfast and a nice slow ski at moose meadows in the sunshine... Now that we have a teenager in the house we have to start locking the doors and screening calls!

Moose Meadows Rocks


Look at that smile. Proof that getting your kid outside during the winter for extended periods of time keeps their spirits up. The only thing that was slightly off putting as we walked for an hour around Moose Meadows was Max kept asking, "Where's Joe's party? Where's Joe's party? Are we going to Joe's party yet?" Remind me not to give him too much notice when we're going to a party as he gets fixated on the idea that there might be balloons, cake, pointy hats and all his friends. He wasn't disappointed!

The Fist of GLORY!

In the tradition of the balloon bursting test of manhood, young Max is attempting with the open fist technique. A little pectoral squeezing from Philip, and the balloon did blow.
