We attended a wedding in Germany for one of Liane's best friends. It was an amazing time! The couple live an hour outside of Berlin on a horse farm. On the way back, we stayed 5 nights in London which was a blast.

Yes, my parents are getting a new dog. Very exciting stuff. Last weekend we went to visit the breeder...we got a chance to play with the full litter (eight poodle puppies at seven weeks). Cause they move around a lot, it was hard to get good pics...

Very slow in getting this collection online. Liane and I went to Evanston for a wedding in the spring. It was the first time that she had been there. It was a lot of fun to catch up with old friends and to see how the campus has changed. It is too bad that I never spent a summer there as the campus is soooo beautiful.

Liane and I packed our bags for a fun weekend in New York City. We ate at nice restaurants, watched a Mets game, went to the Met, and met up with a lot of fun people. I always tell myself I should get down to "the City" more often. I mean it is soooo close. This year we made it twice...a new record for me.

Liane and I "discovered" this pond near where we live. I guess I knew about it but had not been for a long time. We saw turtles, herons and geese. The pond has a nice walking path that everyone should check out.

Liane and I decided to trade in the Boston weather for the beaches of the Bahamas. We spent 2 nights on New Providence and 5 nights on Grand Bahama. Lots of sun and lots of Peas N' Rice (I will pretend I didn't know there was pig fat in it).

So, it was a lazy Saturday morning and I was helping Liane with a problem with gimp when I discovered a cool tutorial. I told Liane to keep out for a little bit as I was going to show her something cool. When I showed it to her she said "I already know how to do it and I already used the technique in our Paris pictures". Well I was impressed with myself. The page that I followed is here.

My uncle just got this small furry cute ball of fun. We went over to visit her recently and had a lot of fun. When we were outside in the backyard, Siena made sure we were all together. She would bark whenever one of us left the group. She will make a good herder. My uncle's friend (who is a professional photographer) took some pictures which can be viewed here.

On my way back from OSCON, I met up with my brother in Chicago and we did the El Loop Tour. Here are the pics from it. I highly recommend this tour. Afterwords, I went back to the U of C campus and saw a statue which commemorated the site of the first nuclear chain reaction.
