I can't believe that I haven't had a blog post since December...Yikes

Here we go...our first blog post in almost 7 months. Why don't we start off with an update.
After working 12 hours a day for the last 7 months it was time to move on to greener pastures so to speak. Sue and I were able to visit our family in St. George recently and had a wonderful time with Will, Kari, and the kids. They graciously allowed us to hang out at their place after they left for a vacation to Buffalo. We also had a chance to hang out with Jimmy, Hollie, and their kids too, and participated in their awesome July 4th barbecue. We saw Chris and the kids and met Chris' girlfriend, Erica...what a sweetheart. It was nice to see Alison and the kids too. We aslo had a chance to see some of our dear friends in the St. George area while we were there (Terry K, Cinda P., and Paulette V) needless to say there wasn't enough time for us to see everyone and for that we are sad. But we did have a wonderful time and a long overdue vacation.

We then headed up to see Sherri in Montana but had to stop at Grand Tetons and Yellowstone National Parks. It was my first time at either and what a wonderful trip we had. We spent a couple of days with Talon and Sherri, met our new grandson, Milo, and meet Talon's family (awesome folks). Talon showed us around the Great falls area and we had a great family dinner together beofre I had to leave. I continued on to my destination while leaving Sue behind to enjoy some more time with our new grand baby, Milo, and our precocious granddaughter, Addy.

I have arrived safely and am settling in. Spendiing my nights in a 12 x 12 hotel room wihtout a fridge or microwave...you can do anythng for a while :) no vicitm here. The new area is nice and the weather has been been beautiful. No new house as yet but I'm working on it every day. We should have something finalized this week.

I have been here for two weeks now, the first week in Rugby, and the second week in Minnesota and Cleveland in Corporate meetings. This seems to be a very good compnay.

Please enjoy a few pictures from our recent adventure. I will try and do better this year. We both miss all of our family and friends...soooo much.

We saw all kinds of wildlife....buffalo...tons of them, elk, a black bear cub, a hawk flying with a fish, old faithful, hot springs, etc. Not to mention all of the beautiful views. Please enjoy a few of the photos we took along the way...please stay in touch.
