Well, the trip out to Aruba was wonderful. Did some wonderful diving, drove across the entire island toured much of the desert side on ATVs. Photos are posted in the gallery.

Christmas photos - my parents arranged for my uncle, my cousin’s wife and her two kids to take a balloon ride the day after Christmas. The weather and fuel tanks permitted Mica and I to get in for a ride too, so here’s the pictures.

Just got back from vacation. Plenty to write about, if I get a chance. For now though, here’s the photos.

Been a while since I’ve posted. Something to keep you busy until I can write more…

We’ll, we’re home from Albuquerque. Don’t have time to post much for now, but here are a few pictures.
