We're not dead yet!
Hey, everyone -
Far from dead, we have created new life. Check out pictures of our little wonder, Jade: http://picasaweb.google.com/jkramerwine.
You are never far from our hearts.

Hey, everyone -
Hey, everyone - While Londoner Mikey D (a friend from our days at Camp Lokanda) was in the states, he flew out to visit us in Denver. We promptly left our fair city and headed to the mountains! We found an oasis 150 miles away in Glenwood Springs. Dennis is writing the screenplay for our adventures. Keep your eyes and ears open for the likes of Dave Brave - coming soon to a blog near you.
We stayed at a hotel to the left of the pool. The stats on the pool are outrageous: the "large" pool, is 405 feet long and 100 feet wide at the widest point. It contains 1,071,000 gallons of water, and is kept at about 90 degrees F / 32 degrees C. It has a diving area and exercise lap lanes. The therapy pool, the "small" pool, is 100 feet long and contains 91,000 gallons of water. It is kept at a temperature of about 104 degrees F / 40 degrees C.
If you are reading this, you probably received a long overdue change-of-address announcement. We have many things to report, but little time to be articulate so we're going to list some fun happenings of the past four months:
- We have been able to drive to visit Michelle (Dennis' sister) in New Mexico three times!
- Our neighbors have invited us over for two dinner parties! They are from Louisiana and made Gumbo for the last party.
- Pooch, our cat, arrived on April 1st. She loves it! And we finally are training her not to claw the couch...
- The picture on the card you (might have) received was taken on our way to Idaho Springs, a town in the mountains. Our friend Travis was visiting and we wanted to go on a hike, but we could not find the trail because the trailhead was covered with snow.
- U2 preformed here on their 2005 tour and we had tickets! This was our first visit to the Pepsi Center - Dennis really loved the Avalanche paraphernalia (read this with tons of sarcasm).
- Ralph Stanley and the Clinch Mountain boys preformed in Boulder and, again, we had tickets. This was especially exciting as we had just visited the Ralph Stanley museum in Virginia on our journey to Denver.
- It snowed here on May 1st. Yet, the average temperature had been 60 degrees for the last two months.
Come visit!

That's right, another gargantuan post! Not really, more of just a quick update with a commitment for photos and more dialogue to come.
Hey, all -
Sometimes it takes some time (hey, is that onomatopoeia?) to get segments on the web, but we're back! We've had some happy days, and we're headed out to Illinois on Tuesday, followed by more friends in Missouri and Minnesota for next weekend. We'll update with more about our Ohio fun before we shove off Tuesday morning, so stay tuned.
