A Tight Fit...

As part of our company Gala, we had some very expensive vehicles delivered... To the right you can see a Range Rover Sport that was delivered. It had to make it through the front door of the Hilton.

In the second picture, you can see that it had barely 1/4 of an inch on either side.
 
 

Bug gets a day out

We had a nice day a couple of weeks ago, so we let Bug go out and enjoy the sun. He was happy to pose for a few pictures before finding some dirt to roll around in.

Bond, Jim, Bond

For my company's Gala, I was "volunteered" to dress up as 007. I had a couple of "Bond girls" to escort me up on stage where I gave a short speach about attending the gala. The giant martini glass was very popular,

Best place to eat on Kauai

The night we landed in Kauai, we picked up the rental car and asked the attendent where to eat... she said "Barbecue Inn". It isn't fancy from the outside but the food is incredible and inexpensive. You get great food for your money!

Why did the chicken cross the road?

To get to the beach... obviously. For anyone that has been to Kauai, chickens are no surprise. As we drove out towards Ke'e Beach from Princeville, we stopped at this beach where we were greeted by a rooster. They are literally everywhere on the island. Our first day on the island we were forced to wake up at about 7:00a by the roosters coming through our condo complex. Fortunately they left us alone most of the rest of the week.

Early Morning in Colorado

This is the view of the mountains from Colorado Springs this morning. The moon was setting over the mountains as the sun was rising to the east. The temperature was about -2 F (-20 C). 

Hawaii Sunset - 26 Jan 2007

The final sunset for our trip to Hawaii. We spent 6 days in Kauai and flew to Honolulu on the last day. We rushed over to the Arizona memorial and made it to the last tour. Afterwards, we drove down to Waikiki and watched the sun set. Not too bad...

How real is HDTV?

Here's a picture of Bug watching his favorite TV show. Last week he suddenly took interest in what was showing on TV... a show called "Winged Migration" on Discovery HD Theater. He'll sit for 30-45 minutes watching the show.

Merry Christmas!!

I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas! Stay warm and safe, wherever you are!

09Dec - Colorado Hike

A couple of weeks ago I went with Dave and his friend Rob up near Mt Evans (west of Denver). We parked at about 9100 ft and then show shoed up a mountain to about 10400 ft. The picture is from about 1/2 way up looking down the trail.
