tom's Story
March 28, 2022
granddaughter is now 2yrs old. Our youngest daughter has bought a house and is moving back to the west coast (yay!)
Kathy has retired but is now consulting - almost as much work as before but without the travel.
I'm finding the covid quarantining to be very similar to retirement. I really feel it for the young people. I can only imagine I'd be terrible at quarantining if I was in my 20's.
I can't believe how lucky we were to get the trip last years (Kathy and I were able to do a trip to Venice and the Dalmatian Coast in October. A small ship (80 passengers, 90 crew) and every where we went they all said "usually it's so crowded... elbow to elbow mobs of tourists. It was practically deserted. I loved it. Dubrovnik. It was wonderful. I'm fascinated by old, walled in medieval towns. One port town we visited said we were on the 6th ship to visit this year. They usually had over 600! wow. 1% of their usual business.) It's been tough all over but it seems like a lot of people are "over it" even if it is not over them.. I hope you all are doing well and stay healthy.

Kathy and I now have 2 grandsons, one on each coast. The youngest is...Expand for more
6 months old now. The older is 20 months. That's the good news.
A curious thing though - BOTH of our daughters had thyroid cancer. We're not sure what to think of that. The older went through it about 10 years ago. The younger just a few months ago. She is still in the big adjusting phase. Highs and lows. Very hard to see your child (even your adult child) go through such difficult and confusing hardships. They say Thyroid Cancer is "the one to have" if you get cancer. They are wrong. NO cancer is "the one to have".
So, maybe you know the answer to this... How can little boys who don't even speak yet be so CHARMING?!?!?
Thanks to our oldest grandson, Kathy is now "Gee" and I am "Bah" - probably as in Gigi and Bah Humbug.
We're thinking of going to Colorado in September for Jim Prain's daughter's wedding. Maybe meet up with Lance and Abele.
September 2015
Anyhow - in case any one has wondered about my picture - it is me with a lot of Photoshop. I love to do absurd selfies. Well, I USED to love it. Maybe I'm just too busy, but I haven't done any in a while.
Hope y'all doin' well. Keep on the sunny side. Unless it's hot, then stick to the shade.
