Harlem Globetrotters


A few weeks ago I was getting dressed for work when I heard Sarah say, "Oh darn!" I asked what the problem was. She had been trying to dial a TV station to win tickets to the Harlem Globetrotters. Obviously she hadn't won. I was surprised that she was even interested. I've lived with her nearly 39 years and didn't know this was something she really wanted to do. So I got online and got a couple of tickets for the event.

We went out for a date last night and had a blast! After the game Sarah got her jersey signed by "Big Easy" who is now the team clown. He plays the role that Meadowlark Lemon played for so many years when I was a kid.

Walking With the Dinosaurs



Okay, I'm a few weeks late getting this one posted. In mid January I took three of my grandsons to Salt Lake City to see the production of Walking With the Dinosaurs. We had lots of fun although the boys weren't quite the brave dinosaurs hunters they claimed to be. I had trouble getting good pics in the arena but the one I'm posting shows the relative size between the man in the upper left and the stegasaurus. There were some dinosaurs that were 35 ft. high. What an experience. I'm sure the boys will remember it for quite some time. I know I will!

We're Finally on the Web!

Okay, I'm learning a lot trying to get this up and running. I may have to call some of my kids to learn how to do things the right way. Just be happy that I'm getting it done.

In February Ron was recognized as one of ten superintendents nationally to receive the Tech Savvy Superintendent Award. We traveled to Tampa, Florida for the event.

On the way to the award presentation Sarah and I decided to walk part of the way. We walked by a beautiful waterfall in the middle of the town square.

That evening I had a surprise for Sarah. Since we were in the air on Valentine's Day I took her on a dinner cruise the next night. One of the pictures shows the two of us on the boat.
