We found a cool combination picnic table and bench that seemed the perfect fit for under the big oak where we usually
have the brunch. It's our first piece of furniture for Lockwood <g>. Now we have somewhere to sit and take a rest
after working on fences or whatever the latest project, or just admire the view. Follow the link for pictures of the "build".
Good-bye Jolly Green Giant After years of faithful service since the Altanta Olympic Games, proudly proclaimed on its license frame, after hauling
to all those clinics and weekly lessons, years of pony hunters, Pony Club, eventing and Young Riders at Prelim level, the
JGG has found a new home and a new calling.
Jenni Grey saw the ad clear up in WA state and fell in love, just as we did all those years ago. It was a perfect match,
even her colors. She flew down with her tool kit, which was a good thing since the carb needed some work after standing these
last couple years. A gasket kit adventure later and off they left for Washington and its new career hauling her pair of Percherons.
We'll miss it; it was, and still is a wonderful vehicle. But we think it's found a perfect home where it will be loved
and enjoyed as much as we did. Congratulations, Jenni!

2004 2011 holiday greeting
Graduation!
For two years we struggled through grad school, both
working full time, David heroically holding down the fort while Bonnie studied, wrote, studied, tested, studied, wrote and
tested some more. But it's done! Thesis accepted, the final final taken, and with Phi Kappa Phi, and Achievment of Academic
Excellence, in May 2009, we got "hooded"! Yay!! See Commencement here.
