Here is our Europe Trip 2011
- Prague, Vienna, Budapest, Venice, Florence and Rome.

After New Years we drove up to Seaside Oregon to meet Peggy, Amber, Daniel and little Robbie for a late Christmas celebration. We stayed at the Worldmark directly on the ocean. It was a great place with great views. It was pretty stormy most days so the ocean was really active. Everybody had a great time. Robbie has a mouthful of teeth. Apparently more then most babies of his age. He took some first steps while there. I believe you can see it on Amber's Youtube account (
Amber's youtube )

I guess I can announce here that Amber is pregnant!!! Hope it's a girl but a boy would be nice too.

We plan on going to see Marshall in Show Low early February. We finished the 14 book series we listened to on the last several trips. We will miss Precious Romatswe, Maa Makutsi, JLB Macatoni and "The #1 Ladies Detective Agency" from Botswana.

It's been over a year since I fell off a ladder and tore my rotator cuff. I had the operation in April. I've finally ended physical therapy. I'm about 99% OK, still some weakness and some limits on motion.

We are back on our low carb diet. It does work. I'm losing 2-3 pounds per week. Little or no hunger. I do miss some things but am making do.
Here is a PBS Forum that addresses various problems. Here is a link to a rather long lecture by Robert H. Lustig. Here is a short version. We used the book "Why We Get Fat: And What to Do About it" by Gary Taubes.
   Take a look at www.youtube.com under "gary taubes why we get fat". There are several lectures available which are pretty much the same as the book.

Report on our August 2011 Arizona trip to see Marshall.

We bought a new car. New to us, a 2007 Infinity M35. Perhaps the fanciest car I've ever driven. It even has a rear view TV for backing up. Also a sensor to detect cars in front while in cruise. We have found the GPS to be really useful.

I have made contact with some cousins we haven't dealt with for a while and discovered another batch of cousins. There was a note on ancestry.com asking if anybody knew who my Grandmother Imerson was. I gave a smart ass reply. Then found out this other Imerson family existed. Long story... Very much fun communicating with all.
   It has put me on a quest to gather more Imerson family photos.

I added some pictures of a hobby of mine under "paper models".

We are taking a class in Western Civilization. We are repeating it after an 8 year absence. The lecturer is really good and the classes fun and interesting.
