Garrett's Cooperstown Baseball

I wish I could be in two places at once because I would love to go back to Cooperstown. We had a really good time and it must have been a great experience Gavin and now it's Garrett's turn.

This time Tony and Ruth are going. I know they will all have fun. I already told Tony that we expect a daily photo journal.

If they still stream the final game or games, at least we can watch the game on Internet.

Las Vegas


Cristine and I, with her mom and Don, got back from Vegas last week. We had a good time. We saw the Blue Men, it was great. Last year we saw Cirque De Soule.

This year we had a little bit of unexpected excitement. We stayed in the Monte Carlo which was two buildings over from 'The Broadway.' Upon arrival, we could not help but notice the building was gutted. As suspected, we learned the building was going to be imploded. We were leaving Tuesday morning to come back to Atlanta, but the scheduled implosion was for Wednesday morning at 2:30am. I was dissapointed because it's not everyday you get to see and feel an implosion of a 7-8 story building.

Well, Tuesday morning 2:30am all sound asleep - guess what? We were awaken to a thundering BOOM! Yep, they imploded the building and we could have witnessed the event. Now, I was really dissapointed. Had we known the correct dates, we could now say that we saw an implosion live! Oh well, I guess we can say we had a hell of a wake-up-call.

Anyway, we all really had a great time. I'll be posting pictures on my pbase account today or tomorrow if you wish to see some of the pictures.

The Begining

There are the parents, then two sisters and two brothers. Each child lives in a different state. How did this happen? It just did. I don't think any of us planned it this way, but this is the way it is. So much for Sunday afternoon dinners with the whole family; or leaving the kids with the sister for a Friday night; or the two brothers going fishing/golfing early Saturday morning.

But, that's the way it is now and we have to deal with it. But, now we don't have to wait for somebody's email or phone call for an update on Molly or one of the kiddies. Afterall, this is 2006 and just plain old email is, well, old and cumbersome. Now we have Blogs. A blog is simply a web journal, or a real sophisticated instant messenger. Except with a blog, messages can be composed and uploaded or read at your convience instead of everyone being on the computer at the same time.

I'm not sure what all we can do, like upload photos, or videos, but we'll learn as we go I guess.

Anyway, I thought it would be cool and convienient to have one place that everyone can go to get and share information. At least let me know what you think about the idea.
