Skype

I set up Skype on my computer, and talked to Jody on it tonight. My Skype name is alan.jacobs3 in case you want to call me.

Here is the photo of Jody. He had a terrible hot coffee accident on his chin!

His email is joloj58@gmail.com if you need it.

First day of 11th and 8th Grades

It's hard to believe we sent Sasha to school for the first day wearing flip-flops. Oh well.

They look great!

Sometimes you own the road, and sometimes it owns you.

I like the sign at Eby Chickies and Nolt.

Jody PSU drop-off weekend

Here are some photos from the night before we took Jody to PSU, and the day we took him and got him situated in his dorm room. This business of sending kids away does not agree with me at all, by the way. Who ever invented it?

Mowing

I wonder if my brother David could mow in this pattern?

Late Summer Jogging Photos

This morning, I took some photos of the ripe tobacco plants with Ironville Hill in the distance.

Some Family Photos

The Orthodontist

The orthodontist has this crazy clear plastic thing that holds Annisa's lips open while he works on her teeth. It creates quite a shocking effect!

Painting the Girls' room

With Jody almost gone, we took the loft beds out of his room and painted them to go in the Girls' room, which we also repainted. Here is a SHORT SLIDE SHOW.

Final weekend before Jody goes away for ever

Jody is off to Penn State next weekend, so Von came home, and we spent a fun night as a family at a Barnstormers game.

Jogging photos

I am babysitting David's old camera, which is much smaller than my Canon. I can even take it running! Here are some morning shots from this week.

Jogging with Zel

This morning Zel and I jogged from Back Bay . We saw the abomination of nature: a NPS ranger feeding pastry cakes to a grey fox.

We also saw these mailboxes over on Sandfiddler.

Sandbridge Jogging

I jogged in Sandbridge this morning. I saw this ship and these big pipes. I wonder if this is some sort of beach reclamation project?
Here is a typical scene running up the road. More than anything else, the long straight road is a mental challenge.A cactus.

Single Payer Universal Healthcare

I found this little utility on the Sicko web site. I think the best thing we can do is lobby politicians. Have you written your state and federal representatives and senators? I've written to mine.
