We may be getting older, but we are still ORU. We still have our opinions, which are right; we assure you. On Friday the 23rd of this month, we got together to celebrate one of our own, our Becky.

After a summer with millions of pictures, I'm hitting a low now. There just aren't as many taken now that school is in session and everyone is so busy. But I still have a few from before school started. I love these of Oliver in the river at the National Park not far from his home.

Yes, I live in a dog house. She is the boss, well not really, but in her older age, she is getting a mind of her own and has been known to sass me. Generally though she is a daily joy, now that all the kids are grown and live so far away.

I think this is the funniest cap Ron has had.

I'm finally posting a back to school picture of our grandchildren out west. Both Julia and Oliver are at Dunn this year and their mother, Beth, is working there as well.

Visiting the mountains and walking the trails is one thing, climbing them is redically different. Caleb decided to do just that and while his family watched, he climbed.

Ron refuses to get old. He pushes himself. I do to a certain extent, but I don't go all out like he does. He should have quit climbing tall ladders years ago, but no... Here he is up on the roof blowing off all the dead leaves, etc that have landed up there. Sad thing is, we have had at least two friends who have fallen fron ladders and broken bones.
