20 years?!?!?!

7304 Days (give or take a leap year here or there)

1040 Weeks

2 Decades

1/5 Century

In other words, a REALLY, REALLY long time since I graduated from high school! It doesn't seem possible, after all I just graduated from college. OK - so this was the third college graduation , but it can't REALLY be twenty years - CAN IT?

Much to my shock, dismay, and much denial... it has indeed been that long since I walked the halls of Omaha North High School. You know what that means, right? Yep - the 20 year high school reunion.

It was great to see my friends and hear all about their families; siblings I knew-spouses & children I didn't. It was fun re-living the geeky band trips, interesting finding out "whatever happened to...", and sad to learn that some of my classmates and teachers have passed away.
Our reunion committee did such a fantastic job of planning and executing a wonderful reunion weekend for everyone and I told each one of them this several times during the weekend of events.

Go VIKINGS!

Road Trip 2007

Another road trip come and gone. Our travels this year included the Bon Jovi concert at Cheyenne Frontier Days, many hours in Yellowstone National Park, 5+ days at my brother Dave's ranch, and then the two day trip home. The two big highlights of the trip were Bon Jovi (great show and yummy eye candy) and being at the birth of Paprika, Flicka's new foal at the ranch. I've included some pictures below of our trip:

How cute is he?

Grand Teton National Park

Old Faithful - WOW!

Doesn't get much better than this...

Flicka's new baby, just minutes after birth!

Trying to stand up - about an hour old

First time out - about 30 hours old!

First run with mom.

It was a great trip, we love the mountains and even enjoy the drive (at least during daylight hours). Can't wait until our next visit to the ranch!
