More About Much. . .
Okay. . .you probably don't need another page full of pictures of my dogs, kids, and their friends. Right now, some of these photos aren't even mine. But I gradually will add photos that have some legitimate connection, and update photos on both pages as it seems necessary. Meanwhile, please feel free to browse the current offerings. Many of these are here because my son Greg insisted. He's the Aquarian. . .need I say more?

Once A Tiger. . .
Danny, Greg, and Simon after beating Nixon. (Think Dallas/Washington--only more so.) Danny and Greg have known each other since either Kinder or First. Greg came home and said his best friend was the kid in the red shirt. Eventually he realized a name would be more helpful. Danny and Simon both play college football now, with the Javelinas. All three are outstanding students. . .and outstanding young men, if I say so myself!

Oh, and Simon attended the elementary school where I teach now. Laredo has well over a hundred thousand people, but it can seem like a small, comfy town if you live here long enough.

This is not Oli "sitting up. . ."
Many dog owners may use the command "Sit up" for this particular trick. But this is Oli "being cute"--something he decided to learn all by himself. (We were going for the more traditional command.) Check in next month for Thor's version of "be cute," and catch the high and low of canine begging!
Thor, "being cute". . .
As promised, here is Thor responding to the command to "be cute." My children insist Thor is not very smart and just don't realize that Oli is more photogenic.

Okay, so Thor's clutzy (he's a dane, after all!) and not quite as smart as Oli. But hey--he's big and as sweet as they come, and that's something.

Thor Angelo de Laredo y su amigo...
Great danes are friendly types. Here, Thor's friend is un mono de peluche, a stuffed toy, but Thor loves the stray cat that hangs around outside.

Why the Spanish interjections? Oli is very bilingual, but Thor doesn't seem to "get" instructions in English or Spanish yet!

Not really...
This is my good friend Hal. I took this picture on his birthday. I think he likes to be in pictures.

You might have guessed by now that none of these pictures are favorites of mine, or even mine. And I don't know any Hal, and he isn't here anyway. But I'm working on a new roll of film!

This is one of my favorite images
