I was just about to type..."anyway...enough of my rambling"...but of course, if you are still reading....here is MORE of it!
Last weekend, my barbershop quartet (too new for a name) sang its first gig. Nothing flash...just a graduation party....but it was nice to get out in front of an audience. Shaz and the kids came and I had high hopes that Adam and Soph would be rooted to the spot and captivated by our melodious warblings. Instead....Adam got stuck into a water fight with some local kids and Soph played on the swings (it was in a picnic shelter at park). Oh well!
BTW...I am the lanky one on the left singing baritone.
Soph has been developing quite a talent for the old gymnastics. I realize I am biased but she seems to take after her mum and has proper talent. At least...whenever something needs demonstrating to the class the coach always asks our Soph to show the others. Proud dad!
We are frantically packing the van in anticipation of a road trip to New England. We are heading to the Catskill Mountains in New York tomorrow and then on to the Adirondacks (or the "Daddy-Wrong-Tracks" given my shoddy navigation skills). After that we will head North East into New Hampshire to the White Mountains where will are staying with Mike, Vicky and Sascha from the Pittsburgh old days. The final destination is the coast of Maine. Pittsburgh is land-locked and we have been missing the ocean so a week or two on the Maine Coast seems like a good remedy. Anyway....I'll try and blog en route. Watch this space.
Love to all.

Grrr - it is a cold grey day here, with Summer feeling like a distant memory. I am extremely jealous! Have a fantastic time and blog when you can - Did you hear that Gareth ad Helen have had a baby boy?
You all rock dudes!
Ya'll can take a trip down south anytime you feel like it :) We've moved to a new house with more room for the impending new arrival, but we're still right smack in the middle of Raleigh. I'm actually heading over to the beach next week for a few days with the kids - Ben has to work :(
The kids are still talking constantly about Adam and Sophie. Katelyn and Alexander have planned out their lives with your guys and plan on getting hitched when they are around 20 :)
