I forgot I took this picture. I am grateful for you Mom and Dad. Thanks for being great parents and for being wonderful examples to me and my family. I appreciate all that you have done for me and my family. I am especially grateful that you raised us in the church. It is such a comfort to know that there is more to life than our material possessions and that our families are the most important things we have. Thank you for your love and support.

Mom enjoys riding her new-to-her bike. It is a BMW R1150R Rockster model. She rides to school and back home again most days. She is a hero to her students on campus because she is a motorhead!! You go, girl!!
San Francisco Trip - 2007
During our trip last summer to San Francisco and eventually to San Diego, we took a day ride around the Castro Valley area to a scenic area known as Mount Diablo State Park. I distracted Barbara as we were maneuvering the switch back roads on our way down from the peak. Barbara endured a slow speed accident resulting in a few broken ribs, a broken clavical, and a punctured lung. She spent 10 glorious days in the John Muir Medical Center in Walnut Creek. She has survived to ride again. She got back in the saddle and has ridden to school already this year.
