The day after Christmas – really!

The Indiana Moore’s had their family Christmas yesterday. As tradition dictates we met at my sister Ann’s for the event. The Ohio Moore’s were there and so were the Indiana Armey’s. I took some pictures but they are the 7.2 megapixel ones and far too large to download (at least using my bandwidth). If I can dust off Infranview I will make thumbnails and larger compressed files for the world to enjoy.

We had a good time. As the children get older they get their own lives and are moving away. Kristen is going to NY to finish her training after receiveing her BS a few weeks ago. Erin is going to Chicago to college. Of course Jessica is in her 4th year of what promises to be a 5 year degree in Chemical Engineering and we rarely see her except briefly on holidays such as this.

If you got this far to the blog you also have with out a doubt read our 2005 Christmas letter. I am writing this while I sit in a Grand Rapids hotel. It is a inexpensive hotel that has HSI access and a free breakfast but is only a mile away from work and is in the center of everything. For example, tonight I left work at 1800 hrs and went to Brann’s for dinner ($6.99 Cod dinner w salad and potato plus roll), then down to the library to get a book on tape, on to SAM’s Club for gasoline. While in that direction I stopped by the used book store and then on to Barnes and Nobles. Finally, I arrived back at the hotel and started this literary work – and it is work for me.

I am tired so I will sign off – bfn.
