We spent last weekend in Moab with Dan & Beth (Mo’s Aunt and Uncle, Dan is Craig’s youngest Brother). We spent the majority of our time crawling around two Jeep trails, Top of the World and Fins & Things. We have run portions of Fins & Things before, but this time ran the entire trail. …

Tonsilectomy
During a recent doctors visit to explore migraine treatments my doctor examined my throat and exclaimed in astonishment “holy crap you have giant tonsils!” She asked me “Do you snore?” LOL! Do I snore? Is the Pope Catholic?! Like a bear, I proclaimed. She hypothesized that lack of sleep can lead to health problems, in …
Helmet Head
I know its August, but I found this great picture of the boys skiing last season at Alta on Mo’s blackberry. I had to share it with everyone! We are getting excited for the upcoming ski season, but are still thoroughly enjoying this great summer.
CAN
I really try to be a good father to my two boys. Give ’em mulligans in life and in golf. Play through my injuries while I’m being tag teamed in the living room during Wrestle Mania 2008. Be a great Soccer coach, example, and friend. But, compared with Dick Hoyt I may come a bit …

Henry served us a creepy breakfast this morning, grapes with a side of Black Widow! He calmly walked in my bedroom and informed me that their was a creepy spider in the grape bowl in the fridge. I thought it was going to be one of the little transparent green house spiders. I was shocked …
Henry!
Henry stole the show at his Little Gym performance this month! What a champ!

fractil
I have been asked a couple times about my online and computing moniker, fractil. Don’t confuse it with the mathmatical fractal, whose basic definition is fragmented, or a reduced portion of a whole. Now that I am thinking about it, that definition probably suits me better! Anyway, fractil is an acronym for the following: FLIR …
Disneyland 2008
We just returned home from Disneyland! We had a great time! We flew from Salt Lake International to LAX on Tuesday morning (5/20/08), then caught the Disney bus which took us to the Disneyland Hotel. The whole setup they have there is, for lack of a better word, “magical”. From the hotels, to downtown Disney, …
Neff’s Canyon Cave
Tom, Jon & I grew up believing it existed, but others thought it was an urban legend. Tom & Jon’s dad (Parker Gay) is an MIT educated Geo-Physicist, and knew it “was up there somewhere”. Well Tom finally found it! Neff’s Canyon Cave, according to the USGS is the deepest cave in the US at …
