Everyone's coming to GiGi's B.D. Party!!

What a thrill that Derek & Hillary & Jocelyn will be joining us for Grandma's 80th on Thursday, Sept. 18.. Natalie, Laura, Jeff, Derek, let Uncle Jim know if you will be singing or dancing for the program. Or who you would LIKE to hear from on the program..... Also, put in your vote for Friday or Saturday morning: a first annual Don B. Clark Memorial Ozzie Osborne's Course (par 3) Golf Tournie (Grandma has extra clubs...we have LOTS of balls) OR rent bikes and go biking OR everyone to the beach? Other ideas? It will be so great to see you all....

Tongue Tied

A huge highlight of our fun day at the Santa Barbara zoo with GiGi (Great-Grandma Annette) and the Havell family, was treating the giraffe to a crunchy cracker. The giraffe seemed to love it. Will, too!..... Will was ecstatic with all the animals. Fish, even! Many thanks to the Havell boys....They helped us keep track of him.

All My Cuties

Here they are, all four!! Katherine, William, Andrew & Jocelyn. Sweet joys.

Captain Corbett Captures 2nd Place at Nationals

After four grueling days dueling on the high seas, Ray and crew scored a second place in the Annual Olson 30 Nationals at Channel Islands. The crew bunked here during their stay and we had wonderful salmon dinners while everyone recounted their adventures on the water. Ray was at the tiller, his brother Tom on the foredeck accompanied by former college chum Joe Burien, Tom's daugher, Kristen, and two veteran sailors and sail makers, Angela and Brian. Pretty awesome finish for these guys, some of whom have been sailing for a looooong time!! (To check out the action, zoom in on the boat on the right.).....
