    Here's a few pictures . . . I hear they're going for about a thousand words apiece these days . . . (click on a thumbnail to see a larger version)
    _____________________________



    Just a few of the TVs we've got laying
    around the house . . . (contrary to what
    you heard on TV)


    A few of us in the kitchen. Mama's
    making coffee while Kyle's playing his
    "new" 1930s-era banjo.


    Luke teaching a musical workshop at
    a bluegrass festival.


    Guess what these folks have in common?!?


    Luke with his "new" Datsun pickup his
    dad's been saving for him.


    Kyle re-playing the final level of
    Half-Life 2 (the greatest game ever
    created). Hope I'm not spoiling the
    ending for anybody . . .


    Hmm, who are those kids? Oh . . . the
    feet. Must be Luke and Kyle sword-
    fighting as part of a demo for the Teen Fair.


    Esther (Carl's mom) with Leslie and
    Luke beside the Venetian in Las Vegas, NV.


    Kyle gets to touch a "Movie Star" on a
    recent trip to LA.


    Kyle and Luke (the blue cap in the back)
    with their homeschool softball team,
    ready to lose again!


    Kyle and Luke sharing some harmony
    at "Fun Day:" a benefit for
    developmentally-challenged kids.


    Our new car. 'Nuff said.


    Kyle hanging with some of his old friends
    at a music festival. Watch that bottle!

    and off topic, but long as I'm on here, have you guys, or anybody reading this, ever read the 'Ender' series by orson scott card? not a fan of sci fi, but these totally pulled me in-just finshed the first one, ender's game-now on 'speaker for the dead'-theres 8 in all-worth checking out-movie of it coming out next year...

    Hey Buddy,

    I've read quite a bit of science fiction, though not so much the past few years. (Spendin' time with my 9 yr. old daughter is so much better!)

    Anyway, the Ender series is one of my all-time favorite series. And Speaker for the Dead is my favorite. I usually cry at several places in the book - Card does a good job of eliciting emotion in the reader.

    The author I've read the most, and the most consistently, is David Eddings. He does the sword and sorcery style, but I've enjoyed his series immensely. (Between 2 different story lines, he's got about 18-20 books, which I've read several times each.)

    Enjoy the Ender world. I haven't read any of his other Ender ones, like Ender's Shadow, or Shadow of the Hegemon. But they sound good.

    Hi guys!

    Good to see some photos to go with the names. Carl - that is one 'mean' beard! :wink: It's great to see people with beards - my dad's always had one - he wouldn't look right without one. :lol: There seem to be far fewer beards around these days - or maybe that's just a british thing!
