Places I've gone.

Then there was New Mexico

This photo is from sometime before I was in the third grade. Who knows exactly when. I'm gonna guess 1971 or maybe 1972. I think it's at Bandalier National Monument in Northern New Mexico. Bandalier ranks right up there with Mesa Verde as one of my favorite ruin sites to visit. I mean think about [...]

Spotty European Memories

When I was in the fourth grade, my dad and step-mom decided to take the whole family to Europe. It was my first time there. As soon as we got out of school that year (maybe even a day early as I remember it), we sauntered off to Houston's Intercontinental Airport to fly to the [...]

Fugawi Jeepers on Goats Mountain

Tim and Paul do Europe

Weehoo! I finally got around to making the slide show for mine and Tim's trip in February… it's 9 minutes and 35 seconds long, featuring slides of me and Tim in Munich, Füssen, Planegg, Austria, Regensberg, Berlin, Prague, Dresden, and the roads in between. The tune is by one of my favorite German bands, Camouflage, [...]

Looking for cool things to do in Europe

Anyone out there have any good ideas for things to see and do in Germany, Switzerland, Austria, The Czech Republic and surrounding areas? I know I have a few readers who live over there, so here's your chance to chime in and give me direction. Tell me your favorite places and the things people should [...]

State Fair of Texas

So I just spent part of my day at the state fair! Ouch. Don't forget if you're in the DFW area to drop by El Fenix in Plano on Central Expressway for dinner at 7:30.

Told you so

It's a long way down thru that glass floor under my feet.
