I had heard about this a few days ago, but I just got around to downloading Google Earth.
Two words. Very freaking cool.
The detail level isn’t quite complete on our house, but we were able to find Monica’s family in New York right down to their building. That is simply amazing. I assume they’ll keep going [...]

You might have heard lately of the passing of someone named Shelby Foote, and if you’ve ever watched Ken Burn’s epic The Civil War, you’ve no doubt seen him.

Okay, I think it’s about time I started posting again. It’s been a hectic few weeks around here to say the least.

That is how I describe our lives lately. We are sorry that we don’t update the web site very often, but we promise to get better at it soon. Brian the computer geek has been doing all kinds of nerdy things that I don’t understand to update the web site and make it better and [...]
