On the Road (Day Job) and a Family Visit.

November 19, 2006:  This is the Sunday after a road trip to Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and North Carolina.  I left home last Saturday, November 11th to visit my son in York, PA.  I arrived Saturday evening after my grand-daughters were in the bed asleep.  Saturday was a day of "honey-do chores" with my son Jason.  I taught him how to install a three-way dimmer switch and how to assemble and install fluorescent lights in his garage.   I also showed him how to program garage door remote controls.  His minivan has three built-in garage door openers that needed to be configured to emulate his original remote control units.  After that, the doors opened directly from the van, rather than needing the sun-visor clip-on remotes.  He is a CPA, not an engineer.  I taught him the fundamentals about electrical wiring color codes and safety procedures.   Needless to say, I call him with questions about filing income tax returns.

November 13, 2006:  As always, I love to get pictures of the girls so they don't grow up too quickly.  Katie is being shy due to my infrequent visits.  I should try to come visit more often.

Megan is walking better now and is not camera shy like her older sister.

Katie got up last on Monday morning as I was preparing to depart on my business travels in Pennsylvania.  I caught her unaware on this photo.  Luckily, the camera went off before she could turn away from me.

Katie hid her face from me when I tried to take a photo of the whole family.   Jason had to turn around to get her to look at me.  That Mona Lisa smile is hiding something for sure.
