Been a while...

I am mostly on Facebook now, but I am back with a few minutes to update. The girl is doing really well in soccer. She is the goalie which is a rare thing and the coach is happy to have someone who is interested and can play that position. During one of the summer tournaments she was diving for a shot and hit her head on the cross-bar of the goal. No stitches, but there was blood everywhere. I took her to emergency and they glued it together. A little later she went to the movies with her aunt and left me to field all the calls of concern.
The kids have finally discovered the awesomeness of In-n-out Burger! The boy took the better part of 12 years to eat a hamburger and he is making up for lost time.
I try to go riding about 3-4 times a month. This is a picture of my iron steed a KTM 300xc-w and the hill behind is Redondo Ridge on the back side of Big Bear CA. It is part of the "No Wimps!" ride made famous by Malcolm Smith. the picture doesn't do it justice. It is really nasty. I improve each time I ride and have a blast. The razors and other side-by-sides are making it more dangerous though. They are high speed and no match for a bike. 
That's it for now..
