Rosemarie's Birthday 2007

Almost May of 2007

Time goes on. Almost May of 2007. Our great trip to eastern AZ is long in the past and Canada, eastern Canada is coming up. Horst is going, going to all kinds of exotic places. Good for him. He made it and he deseves it.

Rosemarie smashed a perfectly good flower vase this morning.

At noon we are going to Max's official B-Day party. His 12 th Bday was on April the 16 th. Day after taxday, this year a day before taxday.

Great reminder.

And here I am at the 'Edge' in the

Grand canyon.

Long Time

Well , it's been a long time. Think blogging is a good thing, if nothing else it shows you what happened in the past. Good or bad, hopefully more good than bad. Have forgotten most rules etc. Will have to freshen up. Besides this whole thing moved to Google now. Pretty soon Google will own the whole world.

LONG TIME

IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME SINCE MY LAST BLOG. GUESS I WILL NEVER BE A BLOGGER. THERE IS TOO MUCH BS OUT THERE AS IT IS. THE WORLD DOESN'T NEED MY BS ON TOP OF IT.

OLD TIMES

JUST FOUND THIS PIC AND WHAT A DIFFERENCE THE YEARS MAKE.WOW. USED TO BE A LOT YOUNGER AND BETTER LOOKING.
AMAZING. THIS WAS ON A TRIP FROM VANCOUVER TO VANCOUVER ISLAND IN THE 50 s.
DEPRESSING 

The Oaktree and the Rosebushes

A couple of days ago I finally cut the OakTree. A nice healthy tree in the frontyard next to the driveway. My dear wife told me sometime ago that the tree should go. I said why. You see I hate to cut perfectly healthy trees. First of all we never have enough trees and on top of it they supply us with oxygen. Something we need with all the smog around. So, I cut it down and it is now in the garbage can. I hated cutting that tree but since we soon want a new driveway put in I kind of agreed that Her Idea wasn't too bad. That was the Oaktree.
Today we planted roses. The old ones we had were not too good anymore and besides they had to come out because the painters needed access to the wall which needed painting. Back in November of 2005.So , Rosemarie bought new Roses and she said 'we' (that's me) have to dig holes to fit them in. I dug three of them, 2 more to go. Maybe tomorrow.
When it's all done it will look nice again.
So, that was the Oaktree, which is gone and the roses which have arrived and are growing.

Nice day again

Another great day . The sun is shining and it looks like 80 degrees again.
Beautiful.Just returned from a nice walk thru our local wilderness. Took me just about an hour. Feels good and feel my age.
Finally succeeded putting my pic into this blog. It is rather small, can't really see my beautiful beard. My wife tells me I should cut my hair. I rather like it.When I am done here I will go out and work on my garden project, spreading rocks into our new walkway behind the house. Rearranged the stepping stones and it all looks much better now.
Rosemarie is on duty again. She still substitutes in school. Her title is,
'Yardduty'.
She went to the periodontist yesterday and had one of her teeth fixed. The regular dentist said she has in infected pocket. And really, it had to be fixed, she even has stitches in her mouth. She'll make it easy.
This is it for today.
