Lake Geneva

Bonnie and the dog and I went up to Lake Geneva today to see the fall colors. It was a little overcast so the colors were not as great as they could have been, but we had a good time. Trinity got to meet some cows and we walked around a little by the lake.

Marshfield High School Hall of Fame

On a happier note, last weekend my dad was inducted into the Marshfield Senior High School's Hall of Fame. This is where student athletes who made a great impact in their athletic careers at the high school and beyond are being honored. One coach each year is also honored along with the athletes. My dad was the coach for this year and being the inaugural year of the Hall of Fame, it is quite an honor to be the first coach selected out of all coaches in the history of the school. There was a nice dinner and ceremony where all honorees were given an introduction on their merits and accomplishments, they received a nice engraved plaque, and they gave a short acceptance speech.

While we were in town for the event on Saturday, we stayed at my brothers and got a chance to hang out with the kids...

My Grandfather's Funeral

September 29th, 2006 my grandfather passed away. He was staying in the Veteran's home in Panama City, Florida. I went down for a week with my brother for the visitation and funeral service. Everything was very nice and seemed to go very smoothly. It was nice to see the relatives again. I hope my grandmother will be OK after this. Love you Gramps.

I took some pictures of the flower arrangements on the day of the funeral so those of you who could not attend can see how everything looked. When I get down there again, I will take some pictures of the area where he is resting. It is on the edge of a woods and I understand that many times deer come out to graze in the cemetary. I think he would like that.

Dinner at Kaminari

I haven't posted for a while, but just to catch up... a couple weeks ago we had a really great dinner at a little japanese sushi place called Kaminari. I don't want to give away any secret spots, but it is very, very good. Check it out...
