Picture 1 Picture 2 Picture 3

These three photos are the best of the class group pictures I have of the get together. You may click on each photo for a larger view. If anyone would like to have a printed copy of one or more of the pictures and does not have the equipment available I would be happy to print them for the cost of the materials and postage.

Picture 3 has been formatted to print as an 8 X 10 picture but other sizes are easy to create.

I would like to say to all of my classmates that I had an wonderful time at the event. Thank you all for the great evening.

This video was shot on a consumer grade Fuji camera by Gene Wilson on May 28, 2008.

Dave Wilson spent part of the morning at the Oblong Public Library attending a reading and art work project for children. The above picture shows his creation.

Dave enjoyed the reading and the craft project. Daddy like to see the little boy have a good time and has hung the original on the wall of his office for everyone to see.

Life is good!

Mai has been wanting to learn how to drive and today we had the opportunity to go to a low traffic area and let her drive.

Mai was both excited and apprehensive as she walked around our car to take the wheel.

She sat in the drivers seat of the car for the first time and carefully adjusted the seat and looked in the mirrors before pulling back on the road.

Mai drove more than seven miles and was a very good student. She drove safely and was a quick learner. It was a pleasure for me to be the teacher today, in part because I know how much she has wanted to learn to drive and mostly because I enjoy teaching people who are motivated to learn. The biggest reason I enjoyed the driving lesson is that I love her and we are happy doing things together.
