Dean Koontz Day

Today Sarah and I went to Oceanside to see Dean Koontz speak. He also signed a few books for us. The entire deal was a fundraiser for an incredible group called Canine Companions for Independence. All proceeds from his new book, Bliss to You, go toward this wonderful organization that trains and provides service dogs for handicapped people. Not just seeing eye dogs:
I dropped my keys, can't open the door, can't reach the phone, etc. dogs!

Disneyland

Went with Sarah, Robbie, and Cam today. Had a great time. More pictures and stories tomorrow. Here's one pic for now.
Robbie and I saved the world from the evil Zurg!

Photo Bug

I bought a tripod to take pictures of Sarah's Christmas lights and it has increased my interest in photography. I love taking pictures of sunsets with the tripod and a slow shutter speed. Here are a few. Notice the ghost image of Robbie in the first pic.

Right Here in Riverside

Yesterday Sarah and I took the boys ice skating at the outdoor ice skating rink on the downtown pedestrian mall in Riverside. The ice was rough, there were puddles on the rink... and it was the best time ice skating ever! The boys are hooked. I'm hooked. Sarah's hooked. We are going again very soon.
