I've never read you, but I've seen you all over Blogit, and I know you a bit from reading your comments to everyone. I'm just surfing this morning and fell upon these photos of you and your lovely family. I just wanted to say that you are very handsome, your wife is beautiful, and your children are so cute. You've got it all, don't you? The perfect family. God has blessed you and I think that is wonderful. Enjoy them.

Why, thank you. I shall post more that hopefully won't be blurry. I've taken a few more, but mostly I've been playing catch up the past few days. I hope you guys had a great Christmas. Enjoy your New Year's.

Yes, I did feel that the time was right to begin sharing more of myself. The added benefit is that I get to learn to transfer pictures and that itself will compel me to get out and enjoy this beautiful area.

Thanks. Yes, Cameron works as an x-ray tech at the local hospital here. She gets compliments all the time on how sweet and good she is. She especially loves children.

Thanks for viewing and commenting so graciously. I read your email and visited your site. I wonder why so many nasty comments existed at the bottom of the page? I guess they were just kids screwing around. You have a knack for finding a niche and making a successful go at freelancing. I admire that.

Oh WOW Avant, what a beautiful family... your wife is just stunning...and
YOU are so handsome, I just love your blue eyes. Thanks so much for sharing these... I always wanted to see you guys. You are truly blessed with such a beautiful looking family and the loves shines out. Bam-bam is a cuty too, such a spoiled doggie, no wonder he is a loving dog. Wow, once again... I am so happy now that I can put a picture to your wonderful writing, thanks. I wish you and your family a wonderful New Year and all the best. Take care...
I will catch up with you in Feb 2007. Cheers.

Just realised that my last comment could be misinterpreted, meant that your
boys have a combination of both parent's looks!

Great to put a face to the name.
Your boys have a little of both your good looks, we had the same kind of Christmas in that we all got sick, but are glad to welcome the New Year.
Happy New Year to you and your lovely family (furry ones included).

That's bold of you - giving us a glimpse into your life. I think you have a kind face and your family (including bam bam) looks like a happy clan. Best wishes for a wonderful new year.

Such wisdom exudes from one so young as yourself and quite handsome as well. You could be prince charming with brains. You have a beauty for a wife and you all exude love, even bam bam. You have been blessed with those boys, too. If I had a medical emergency and had to look up into faces such as yours that exude such caring and love, I'd think I'd already crossed over! Word for today = exude. Is your wife in the medical field? She could be an angel of mercy!
Thanks for sharing the people behind the words. I'm sure they will take on newer meaning and depth for most. Have a happy, prosperous, and well New Year!

Sunny but chilly today... yesterday was just chilly, and a little sun here
and there, but I spent much of it at the Smithsonian (Natural History) and the National American Indian Museum-- too many people too close together for my taste, but an interesting day anyway.

Thanks! You've always been so very kind. Bam-Bam is pure rotten. He's so soft now it's pathetic.
I'll be taking many more pics of the boys in the future. They like the attention. Have a good New Year.

I looked at her photo on the computer downstairs, and I couldn't make out her features either. I'll put another up of her in the near future.
No, I keep my eye out for the panther, but I haven't seen it. I'll be sure to carry the camera with me wherever I go now. I've seen a lot of wildlife, including turkeys, pheasants, coons, possums, deer, and snakes.
There are many great vistas when you go up the mountain. There are fifty mile views. I hope the pics turn out good when I take them.

Thanks. That's very nice of you to say. Believe it or not, there are some older medics out there. I rode with a guy who was 62 for awhile, a couple of years ago. Most people get bad knees or injure their backs from lifting and getting in and out of the trucks.
Have a great New Year!

I'm glad you finally posted a picture. Even though you've mentioned having young sons and other things signifying we're around the same age, I always pictured you older. Like there's a bunch of elderly paramedics running around. Duh! You have a beautiful family.
By the way, are you using photobucket to host your photos? If so, you can modify the sizes of the shots before you post them.
