Happy birthday Nathan! He turned 2 yrs. old on Fri. 4-25-08. Wish we could be there with you. Love Papi. This was take last summer in Holly Mi. There were some sm. goats, donkeys and ducks, pumkins, cider and donuts and Nathan did not want to leave!

"Angels Landing" in Zion Natl. Park, southern Utah. Shelli waited here for me as I continued up to the top, which is up the narrow path directly behind her. We made it all the way to the top a few yrs. ago but this time Shelli was a bit nervous so she waited as I continued up. People have fallen off this trail to their death. It has narrow paths and shear drops of 1,500 to 2,000 feet straight down. It's an exiciting hike. 4 hrs. around trip. Not for the faint at heart.

Here's the beautiful young lady I married. I don't know what she saw in me but I'm glad she saw something. Maybe it was those sideburns, you think?

In Oct. 2007 I arrowed this 6pt. buck on a farm I hunt on in Arcadia Twps, Mi. The antlers weren't the biggest but he was a big body deer. Wore me out dragging him out of the woods. In Nov. I shot a doe with my shotgun. I've shot many, many deer since Shelli's dad introduced me to deer hunting. That was the following season after we got married, Nov. of 1980. I started Bow hunting in 1983. Poor things, they're so pretty but they taste sooo good.
