I had read many of your past posts when I first came here, and I was really puzzled as to why you disappeared! Glad you came back for an update! Your pictures are beautiful...your family and Alaska! And congratulations on your new home as well!
 
josh it''s so good to see you back here! the new pictures are great...i know what you mean about the teen attitude, my sister is 15 now and she gives us those looks all the time. that cynical attitude too...hehee...nothing impresses her anymore either. but it will pass, just hang in there..!! your two girls are beautiful! and congrats on the beautiful new house! hope you hang around here!!!! missed ya.
 
April thought I wouldn''t arrest her and bring her in...Boy was she Wrong...

This picture pretty much speaks for itself in that April thinks she is one of Hollywood's "Glam" girls

HI Josh:

If you don''t mind, I wanted to ask if you wouldn''t mind sharing some details about your searches for your latest acquisitions; the red spinel and ruby. Thing is, I am in the market for both (ruby for sure) and noticed that you recently bought two beauties. I am jealous!

I am wondering how long it took you to find what you wanted, and what criteria/parameters you used for your gem purchases. Please share any details you find relevant.

Thanking you in advance.

Hi Josh,
The puppy is SO cute!! And April is indeed growing up to be a beautiful young lady. At the same time, it looks like Regina is getting younger and younger. Maybe those clay masks were worth something after all! Ask Regina what the recipe is :)

I love the photos of Alaska and your family. Keep them coming.



P.S. Sophie, I was wondering the same thing about the avatar. I was saying to myself, "Maybe he shaved?" But I don''t watch much tv, so all the pop culture references are lost on me. Well, now we know.
 
I have learned that friendship over the years means being able to drop in and say hi and pick up where you once left off. Pricescope has always given me this feeling and miss being on the forum, but like many things am bust with other things in life right now. Making more time is something we all probably need to do, but want to let everyone know things are good and life is still grand in Alaska. I thought I would share some photos of what i get to see everyday.

I got a new Nikon D-80 which i am still learning to use, but am starting to get the hand of. I will be posting much more.

I am also learning that photographt is a lot about patience. i was on shore hiding for about 45 minutes and this swan finally swam close.

I pulled the truck off the side of the road today to eat lunch and look who dropped by. I have learned to try and take my camera everywhere. I happened to have it with me...
