Warren's Weblog Site

In case you haven't noticed, I've been keeping a seperate page for Warren here. There's also a link under the "Links" section.

Blizzard Aftermath From Above

Here's a cool pic from NASA's Visible Earth site:

Blizzard 2006

In case you haven't heard, we got a bit of snow this week...It started snowing Wednesday morning. I went to work, had to cancel some afternoon meetings and headed back home around 1:00 PM. Not a minute too soon, in that the blizzard quickly followed - by about 3:00 travel was next to impossible.

The next morning looked like this (for reference, check out the birdbath next to the tree - it's about 3 feet tall)...




We spent the entire morning digging out sidewalks, driveways and cars. I'm very lucky that Richard next door let me use his snowblower. This was about 20 inches in the driveway, and that was after I shoveled the night before.

All told, it wasn't quite as bad as the blizzard of 2003. It was close, but that snow was much wetter (and there was a whole foot more). Here's a picture from 2003 for reference (under all that snow is a pickup truck)...

Christmas Family Photo

Here's the first family photo with baby Warren

Horsetooth Hike

Before the big storm, Owen and Dad went for a hike up Horsetooth Mountain, just west of town.

We picked up some pinecones for the Christmas tree.

The Tree is Up...

Here is a 7 1/2-foot baby Sequoia. Please - no hate mail...it's fake.














Owen decorated his first Christmas tree...

...and was proud of his work.

Uhmmm...

So yesterday an old friend, my college roommate Brandon, called me the other day...he came across this picture of us and had to send it.

This picture was probably taken in 1993 at the (in)famous Fry Street Fair in Denton, TX. This brings up lots of great memories, along with the sad realization that I've had the same haircut for thirteen years.

SoCal Vacation!

Just getting back to normal after our vacation to Southern California. We took a week off and flew from Denver to LAX, and then met up with Aunt Tammy, Uncle Brian, Grandma and Grandpa White in Newport Beach. From there, we visited San Diego, Huntington Beach, Long Beach and the spectacle that is Venice Beach...

Well, one highlight was San Diego and Sea World. Owen finally got to see real live Orcas, as the only sightings up until then was by using Google Image search.

Here's a picture of an Orca jumping...

...and one of Owen's reaction.

Another highlight was getting the two cousins together.

New one on the way !!!

Well, Sherry is almost eight weeks along now. We were a little surprised that it happened so quickly, with Owen being more than two years in the making - but we're certainly not complaining at all...

..So, as things progress we will update a new seperate blog here.

April 2006

Well, we had probably what was the last good snowstorm here in Fort Collins for the year. One last chance to get some sled runs in at the park!

We're looking forward to spring, however -- the great thing about the weather here is that when you've gotten to the point where you don't think you want any more winter, you're done...spring has arrived (kindof).
