new year, new blog

I've decided to jump on the blog bandwagon, it seems like an easy way to keep everyone up-to-date without having to edit my web site constantly

Just to be sure I have everything figured out.... this is a pic from my trip to Hawaii w/ family and friends a few weeks ago. Sunrise from the top of Maui's Haleakala volcano. We did the veeerrrry early morning (I think we left the hotel at 3am) Maui Mountain Cruisers bicycle tour, which was a blast... except for that waking up part.

Here we are sporting our trendy Columbia raingear in an impromptu photoillustration of how not to ride a bicycle - I'm under the front tire.
