Last weekend, my parents went to check out the Hemet dam. Fairly impressive…
There’s also a museum there that talks about all the work that went into it, and some of the archeology that was done prior to starting work on the dam. Here’s my mom looking at one of the displays.

Sitting in the little cafe in Grass Valley where I used to work when we were building the house. Haven’t been here in quite a while.
I had to bring the van into town to get the wheels aligned, and since I had some other errands to do I figured I’d just take [...]
Sarah ordered me a neat Bible a couple of weeks ago. It’s the Chronological Bible, put out as a One Year. I’m not really following any kind of schedule, since I got it far enough after the first of the year, but it’s nice to have an idea of how much is “one [...]
We had a busy – but fun – weekend with lots of company.
Our friends Paul and Jess came over for brunch on Saturday. We’ve been talking about making that happen forever and it was fun to finally do it. Great to see them again.
That afternoon, Jamey and Laura came, along with their kids. [...]
As I mentioned, we did some more exploring the other day. Went way further up the trail, and found lots and lots of these trail markers. Usually you could stand at one and if you looked for a few minutes, see the next one before going forward.
We made it to the top [...]
Here’s the picture, as promised. Taken on a mysterious, foggy day a few weeks ago by my very talented wife. She also made the cute poncho.
We went for a hike this afternoon and explored way further up the trail. Details (and pictures) to follow.
I have a really neat-o picture of Maesie that Sarah took and I was going to post it. Then Mike tagged me. So you get this meme. What is a meme anyhow? This, I guess. Neat-o picture to follow tomorrow.

I was out taking Sierra for a stroll on Sunday and decided to explore a bit. There’s a creek down the hill from our house and on the other side of that, it slopes back up to a ridge that’s about the same elevation as the house. Our property line is at the [...]
We decided somewhere in late December that 2008 would be about learning to rest. Last year was so hectic and stressful. This year is promising to be filled with a fair bit of the crazy too, but we want to learn to take time in the midst of all of it to rest. [...]
Friday and almost time for Pizza Picnic. Yay!
We’ve had a cold, and sometimes snowy week. Lots of rain. The snow just barely stuck here, though the higher mountains got lots. Also, we finally got the stone done on our fireplaces, so I s’pose it’s time for pictures. I’ve been horrible [...]
