Guam 1976






Had a good time in those days back on the island of Guam. Wish I could locate all the friends as we all scatter over the years being military...what a party we could have!

A few old pictures from Guam






I scanned these pictures from the very few I have of our time in Guam. You can see some of the damage from Super Typhoon Pamela a couple Birthday pictures a couple shots from the boonies and beach. I think these were back in the days of the kodak 110 (?) film.

A Red Headed Woodpecker!


There has been 2 of these birds hanging out in the woods around the house for the past summer. They are fairly large and really cool to see when they fly by.

Hi Mom!

Memorial Day Parade in Sandston Virginia!





Well , it has been sometime since my last post -"how time flies". Everything is going well here with the exception of not finding a good job. We have had over 3 inches of rain the past 2 days and it was needed since we had not received any for a week or so , the garden needed it due to the unusually hot days that we just had- the temps were at 98.

I have started to pack items in the house in the event I sell , which is about inevitable at this point. Not sure what the plan is since I do not have a job. It is difficult to figure out what to do as you could imagine. Its a shame that the Factory has not been able to be sold yet..and it does not look like any viable buyers have any negotiations. There may be a hopeful prospect for a good job but I am still waiting for the posting..more later on this.

Well , last week I went with my "bud" Rabbit to the Memorial Day Parade (1st Annual) in hopping Sandston Virginia and attended the Memorial Day service at the Seven Pines Memorial Cemetery. I was a little upset that the persons presiding over the ceremony made many political comments which on this day are very much uncalled for. What a shame. I'll leave you with a few photos of the parade..Rabbit is pictured along with Hillbilly Red (in the golf cart). Hillbilly stoked the grill at his restaurant and cooked up some great hot dogs with all the sides which was very nice of him to do for all of us.
