We were in Tanzania in late August, early September. It was an Overseas
Adventure Travel (OAT) trip. There were 13 of us plus 3 guides travelling in
3 Toyota Land Cruisers. I took this shot in the Ngorongoro crater,
the worlds largest crater with intact walls. There are over 25,000 large
mammals in the crater.

Diana took this shot during an early morning game drive on the Serengeti. We
saw many spectacular sunrises.

We visited a Masai village outside Arusha, Tanzania. Missing her aerobic
dancing, Diana decided to join the locals -- after donning appropriate attire.

Dick had a chance to audition as a drummer at the Arusha Cultural Center.

Here is a photo Diana took of the band leader evaluating the audition.

We all got together for Chris' birthday (35!) in July.
The Men: Chris, Dick, Corey, Connor, Beckett
The Ladies: Melanie, Diana, Liane, Andie

Connor likes to play the Freddie the Fish learning game and Beckett
likes to kibbutz. Connor is almost 5 and Beckett will be 3 in March.

During a warm summer day, Beckett ducked in here to escape the
paparazzi (AKA grandpa)

Trick or Treating was done at our place and here is the road group:
Beckett the baby elephant, Connor the Knight, with Li and Corey.

Connor spent a few days with us at our place in Newport. We visited the Newport
Aquarium and Connor started choking this defenseless turtle.

I took this shot during Chris' birthday celebration. Chris, Melanie, and Andie
(giving dog kisses).

Connor is big time into knights and castles. Here he is at Halloween as Sir Connor
being forced to smile for the camera.

We took a 2 week car trip through the Southwest in April. We started
in Phoenix and visited Prescott, Sedona, Flagstaff, Canyon de Chelly,
Albuquerque, and Santa Fe. Here I am in Sedona, AZ avoiding being trampled.

Beckett loves to wear the "Christmas Hat". Here he is showing off.
