Time Flies!!

[LePetomane]

I came across an old picture that I took of my kids (Jenny and Daniel) while on a weekend getaway to the Catskills while we lived in NYC.



Here they are with an addition of a son-in-law (on the left) on a weekend getaway we took last year to Mt. Rushmore. Susan, Daniel (our son) and I drove from the Twin Cities and met Jenny and Adam there. They drove in from Bozeman, Montana. Coincidentally the boys were wearing the same shirt.Time flies.

Time flies indeed. The good news is that your photography has improved a lot since the first shot

Nice looking kids. May they be blessed with long, happy lives.

Very nice.

Thanks for the good words. The first was taken in 1987 with a throw away film camera. I just took a "picture of the picture" and posted it. It is so nice to see these kids doing well. Daniel just finished a 6 year tour with the USAF and is now working for Delta airlines. Jenny is a chemical/mechanical engineer in the food industry. Her husband is in the petroleum industry. And if any of you have a daughter, I hope she marries as well as mine did.

I specifically remember that day in the Catskills. My wife and I were taking turns fishing to rising Brown Trout on the Delaware River. One would watch the children and the other would fish. It was in the spring of 1988.

Here's another picture before Daniel's final deployment to Iraq. We're grateful that he came home safely.

No more MREs, just home cooking. Nice shot filled with happiness.

Shadowman,

We're very lucky. Good kids (and son in law), good health and a bright future for all of us.
