p.s. In the post a time or two down, I really meant 4.5 MILLION gallons. 4.5 gallons would be a tiny bit undersized.... Balmorrea, Texas. July 4th, 2008.

Headin' North from Marathon, Texas. When we eventually passed 3 cars in a couple of minutes, I wondered if something was going on.....

We traveled to far away Marfa, Texas for our son-in-law's art exhibit. We saw the famous and mysterious marfa lights, swam like little fishies in the incredible Balmorrea spring-fed pool (4.5 ga.), had a fine time with darling Monique and John, and just generally had a mighty fine time. Happy 4th of July (2008)!

Detroit Cuties

7/08
I sure am tired of seeing baby Adele inhale all the spagetti everytime I look at this deserted web site!! I won't eat it for years now. We recently returned from a memorable drive from Texas to Detroit to see Jonathan and Adele's house.

Cute house, cute l'il newly weds. One hellatiously long drive, but worth every rotation of our tires.

Wedding countdown

Although Adele was originally quite a picky eater, she really enjoyed the experience. Fortunately she also enjoyed taking a bath, so clean up was fairly painless. In three days, THIS baby is going to be a cool married woman! WaHoo!

Whoa, it's already Easter

In addition to Easter sneaking up on us, JJ (Jonathan, as some of you know him) and I are getting married in 13 days! I can't even believe it. Let's all pray for warm weather, delicious food, and some good ole' Nolen dancing. I'm really looking forward to seeing everyone. Those of you who won't be in attendance, y'all will be missed and I promise to post some pictures on here after we return from Costa Rica!!
