Tales!

This guy goes into his barber, and he's all excited. He says, "I'm going to go to Rome. I'm flying on

Alitalia and staying at the Rome Hilton, and I'm going to see the Pope." The barber says, "Ha! Alitalia is a

terrible airline, the Rome Hilton is a dump, and when you see the Pope, you'll probably be standing in back of

about ten thousand people."

So the guy goes to Rome and comes back and the barber says, "How was it?"

"Great," he says, "Alitalia was a wonderful airline. The Rome Hilton Hotel was great. And I got to meet the

Pope."

"You met the Pope?" said the barber.

"I bent down to kiss the Pope's ring."

"And what did he say?"

The Pope said, "Where did you get that crummy Haircut?"

In 1966 Marie was stringing for several newspapers  and I was taking pictures for those articles when required.  I was processing my own film and prints so I needed to test film, developers and other photo processes.  My test subjects?  My kids.

 

Shannon in Egypt

Several years ago, Shannon and a friend backpacked through the Middle East and Europe living in hostels. It was a great experience for Shannon.   One of the stops was the Great Pyramids in Egypt.  She just had to have her picture taken on a camel.  Here it is!!

Edgar Z. - 2012

Edgar Z. – January 30 – Two score one – XLI

Sam in the oldest grandson of Grandpa Z.  He is also the oldest grandson of Grandpa Bob.  Sam is currently a Recording Industry Major and Middle Tennessee State.  Attaining the Eagle Scout award is a tremendous achievement.  He makes the entire family very proud.

Hal is Home!

Hal’s days of being pampered are over, as Nurse Ratched has arrived!  This morning he poured his own cereal, buttered & jellied his own toast, carried his plate and bowl to the sink and rinsed them.  He has showered, shaved, and walked his laps around the house.  Clap!  Clap!  Clap!

Hal stayed awake all day yesterday, which is what the drs wanted.  Last night was the best night of sleep yet, so today we will keep him movin’ and groovin’.

We have cheated on the drs’ orders, though:  Cora sat in Grandpa’s  lap for a few minutes.  Either Erin or I are right next to them, should Cora decide to make a sudden move.  Baby Therapy is the best!  Second best is giving Erin a hug today, as this is her 35th birthday.

We continue to be so humbled and blessed by your outpouring of love.  Thank you all so very much!
