Whitehall Lakehouse, Day 3
Very slow day overall. Took a nap in the late afternoon, and that pretty much summed up the pace for the day.

Whitehall Lakehouse, Day 2
After a late breakfast, several of us went to go spend some time helping Kirt work on the new boat he acquired (and is restoring).
Game Day in Detroit
I think we really need something like this at my office, at work. If you can’t afford the space for a full on Thunderdome, this might be the next closest thing to use for settling disputes.
Early Christmas in Detroit
Mid-morning today, I was down in the basement with Kirt helping to set up the Super Chexx machine. For all the time I’ve spent playing this game, this was my first time actually touching the puck (pretty cool).
Weekend in Whitehall, Day 3
Fast forward a bit, and we’re all hanging out in the yard. Liz has changed and is back on land. And Anne and I decide to play a few rounds of string golf.
Early Christmas in Detroit, Celebrating my Dad’s 80th Birthday in Indianapolis
Going out for a big meal like this is not something we normally do. But then again, an 80th birthday isn’t something that happens all that often, either.
Early Christmas in Detroit, Part 1
We rolled into Detroit a bit later than we planned, but the nice thing (and the thing I’ve een struggling to remember) is that we are officially on our holiday break. There are no strict schedules, and no timelines beyond the ones we wish to keep. If we’re running a little late, then so be it – we’ve got the time (which is still a novel concept).

Wait, I hear you asking… if you’re taking the photo, who’s driving the boat?

The ladies, checking out some family photos on Tricia’s laptop. For some reason, my iPhone added this extra blur/gauze to things and this looks like a ridiculous stock photo.

After arriving, we got a tour of the new place. And ended up in the basement, watching a bit of TV. We ended up sitting at the basement bar, watching the second half of “It’s a Wonderful Life” – which was a nice thing to do, as we were visiting for our “Early Christmas” celebration.
Sunday in Atlanta
Sunday had the family over at Kirt and Anne’s house. It was a fairly laid back day, as we just had a nice breakfast… drank coffee and mimosas, and just visited.
Kirt’s Surprise 60th Birthday Party
A large part of our early visit to Atlanta (in addition to the fact that we can’t make it there this December), is that we were in town to celebrate Kirt’s 60th birthday party. Anne had set up a surprise party, and Kirt was none the wiser.
Early Xmas in Atlanta, Day 2
An early Xmas in Atlanta, with the Ford kids in the midst of opening up their gifts.
Xmas in Georgia, Part 2
One great gift that the Fords got was a Karaoke set. Shortly after it was plugged in, all the kids began taking turns singing songs. As you can probably imagine, it was both awesome and incessant for the remainder of the day:
