We just got back from Washington, D.C. on Saturday. I had a conference with the Ken Blanchard Company (the guy who wrote The One Minute Manager and about a million other leadership books) so I just stayed over for a couple of extra days and Sharon flew out to meet me on Thursday. We had the opportunity to stay with Ernest and Judy Istook, the parents of my friend and old college roommate Butch. So we got to catch up with them for a while, as well. I've known the Istooks since Butch and I were in Sunbeams 30 years ago, so there was plenty to discuss.D.C. was wonderful. We were able to take in a session at the temple, and the rain held off as we did our sight-seeing. The Museum of American History was closed for renovations, so that was
sort of a bummer, but we got to see plenty. I think we both enjoyed seeing the dinosaur bones at the Museum of Natural History the most, as you can see from the photo.
Sharon also enjoyed sharing the view from the Lincoln Memorial, along with some random Chinese guy.
And, of course, Auggie and Penny were glad to see us when we picked them up from the kennel.
We'll try to keep the updates fairly regular! Hope everything is well with everyone.

Welcome to the blogging world! So fun to get a piece of what you two have been up to recently. Did you just love D.C.?! I went with Chris for the first time in 10/06 and I loved it! We wish we were closer to you so we could get together with you guys! But blogging will just have to do for now. :) Maybe I should update ours. . . some day.
Ah!! Awesome! I'm so excited! Yes, it was a great suggestion, cuz now we can keep up with the latest and greatest with you guys! Looks like a fun trip, that'd be neat to visit someday, but we'd first love to come visit you guys with the Broughs and do a reunion. You guys are great and we miss you guys!
Ok. I tried to be added as follower of your blog and apparently I'm retarded cuz it didnt show up. I'm still learning some of the newer ropes of blogging.
