Unexpected Visitor

Usually when you lead in with the phrase "unexpected visitor" one automatically assumes it's an unwelcome visitor. Not the case this time! On Sunday, my brother Robert called us and said that he was in Dallas and wanted to come down to Houston to visit. He hadn't been here yet, so we told him to come on down! So, he got here Monday evening and Molly and I went out to dinner with him and his friend, Kim. Robert and I stayed up late catching up, then I took them around NASA today for a nickle tour. It was a nice surprise, and I'm glad he finally got to visit us in Houston. Here are a few pictures:

Astros Win!

Molly and I attended NASA Night at Minute Maid Park to watch the Astros open a can of whoop ass on the Los Angeles Dodgers. We went with a bunch of people from the ADCO group. Here is a picture of some of the motley crew.

We got to see Craig Biggio hit a grand slam on the same day he announced his retirement - that was pretty cool. The crowd went wild! Well, that's about it.

Ginger's New Trick

OK, so it's not a real fancy trick, or even that entertaining..., but in the recent few weeks I taught Ginger to jump up into my arms. It's kind of funny to see a 65 lb. Lab do that. The REAL trick now is to make sure she only does it when you're ready and want her to!


Here's another video I took recently. It's Molly receiving her award at the 13A event at Space Center Houston
