Rokenbok Week...


A couple of times a year we tear the house apart and set up the Rokenbok. Vangee went to Enrichment Night and we moved the furniture to make room. We're lucky she's so kind and understanding. Here's Ian building an office and getting the rest of the Rokenbok setup.

Here's a look at the Rokenbok style living room.

We attached the chutes to the bannister! The balls come out of the mine (the piano bench) goes down the chutes, through the factory, onto the train, over to the other factory where they're sorted, then into the warehouse!

My "ride" home from Boise...


I called Adam on Tuesday night and he said he was going to Boise on Wednesday. Just so happened I was in Boise on Wednesday. He invited me to fly home with him Wednesday afternoon, so, I cancelled my flight on a Boeing 737 with drink service, crawled into the Mooney and flew home...

Adam "right on the beam" to runway 35 R. Beautiful day, beautiful flight!

Having a Raclette...


We decided to have a Raclette dinner this weekend. We put the grill in the middle of the table, put all the meat on the table and everybody cooks what they want. We had steak, chicken, shrimp, peppers, mushrooms, pineapple, squash, bread, potato and salad. I asked Ian to set the table. You can see he puts all the condiments out...good grub, good times!
