This is will the last post on this blog, as it is proving to difficult to move everything over to the new web host and new URL for our family blog. So, we have decided to retire this version to make room for the continuation of our Family Blog at a new Web Address and new web host.
Hi everyone. You know I hate stuff like this normally but I just wanted to ask a favor. Near my hometown Franklin in the NC mountains where I grew up there is a no kill cat shelter. There is an elderly gentleman who runs this shelter and he does most all of the work himself. This guy is a really good mountain guy and really has devoted himself to helping cats in his retirement. If you love cats maybe you will have a tender spot for him. There is a video on you tube that shows the shelter, it is neat it’s a big open home with no cages . Anyway, he is in a contest from Animal Planet for Cat Hero of the year and if he wins he will win some money for his shelter and a spot of tv. You can only vote once from the same computer You can easily vote by going to his site www.catman2.org then click on a link from the front page to vote for Harold Sims. My boss recently took his beloved cat there (drove all of 6 hours and back) and they were wonderful to the cat, infact the cat already has a nice new home.
We are probably just like you, and are spending more time outside playing with the kids and swimming at our swimming pool, than posting here on our blog.
We will continue to post pictures and things as the summer progresses. Meanwhile, quit reading this post, go outside, and do SOMETHING!!!!! hehe…
Here is a favorite quote of ours…
“While making living, do not forget to have a life!”, or something like that…
I really don’t have anything against Paris Hilton, but I am kind of inclined to agree with this journalist, and say that there is MUCH more important news than Paris getting out of jail. Boo Hoo!

My daughter is 4 years, and has already fallen in love with getting on the Internet with my wife and I. As she gets older, this will be an excellent tool to help us if we walk away for a few minutes.
This is a pretty alarming video of someone sitting in a hotel lobby where there is Free Wireless Internet for their customers, and a “Hacker” or “Hustler” as they are called in England is capturing all of their information. After capturing the information the Hustler uses it to make purchase large ticket items on the Internet.
I haven’t watched this show yet, but I must give it a try. This is incredible, and luckily the network has donated all of the “Protest Peanuts” to charity.

This performance just completely rocked! He came up with the arrangement for this song and we loved it. We have it on our DVR and have listened to over and over to see all of the things that he came up with as far as the lyrics, music change ups and the lighting.
