Thank God I'm A Country Boy!

• Jun. 30, 2008 - This one's for Oatman...

Long time no write everybody! I am writing to inform you that this is going to be my last post for awhile… life has shoved itself in my way and there just doesn’t seem to be enough time in the day for writing a post! Don’t fret though… I may be back someday…

 

My last post is going to be on a topic requested by my very dear friend: Oatman.

 

Oatman requested that I post some pictures of “Life in the Hector family of long ago.” Since my dad did not get his first digital camera until the late '90s, pictures you will see in this post will be post-then. I hope you enjoy, and I’ll see ya around!!

 

This is probably the earliest of the bunch. Dad Ben and I are up on top of the Indian Head (rock formation on our property)…

We went on vacation up to the Redwoods in Northern California…

Mom didn’t fare too well that day…

Ben and I on the gondola at the Redwoods…

The fam (minus dad and the later additions) on the gondola…

The view was beautiful from the top…

And of course… we would read every bit of info we could get our hands on… we are homeschoolers after all…

And a lovely picture of the mushrooms… and… nope… just the ‘shrooms…

Every Winter, we would rent a cabin in the snow with two other families. Ben looking a little worn out…

Nick and Kirsten going down the run… tongue and all…

I guess I shouldn’t make fun of Nick too much though…

Ben is looking quite normal… Sorta…

2003… the year that changed our lives…

Matt and Nick have grown up a little bit…

So has everyone else…

Now… Actually last year now...

It is the end of an era, but I am beginning to understand how you feel.

Won't be quite the same, competing for comments....

Nice pics, and I still say I looked dorky!

I quite enjoyed that post. I enjoy seeing how people change, etc. as they mature.

My break from blogging has come. I never have time to write. Life, as it were, has kidnapped every hour of my day it seems. Though, like I said, once school is here, my other blog will be used as a journal of sorts. And I will post as my days allow.

Ciao from the east coast!

• Jul. 9, 2008 - May I say one, no, two things...

1) Your Mom is so cute in the pictures with the pink scarf!

2) Ben looks rather like a tall (and not so round) Mickey Rooney in that second to last picture. I said rather...

Alright, I could say more about those but I won't. I've thought of posting some old pictures before but haven't yet. Maybe I will on my birthday. ;-)

Love the new family blog!

Later!
