Today I built blog #8 for my beloved cousin Ryan. After 6 years of living in Hawaii, he is about to embark on a new journey back East. From New York, to Vermont, to Seattle, to San Francisco, to Hawaii, back to his roots in New York, and the next destination Paris perhaps?.....I know we will always remind two peas in a pod. My Bobbsey twin. I love you more than words can say and I will miss you so much.

HPA 15 year reunion
HPA class of '96
At the HPA luai dinner. Every class from 2006 and earlier were invited to a group luai dinner. The oldest class I saw was 1966, but the school was founded in 1949 so maybe there were others. As I glanced around the room at all the table's class year centerpieces trying to find the oldest class, Alex told me to look for hair color as the obvious clue. It was a week long reunion. We hosted the Friday night party at our house which went on until 1am. Saturday was the luai. And Sunday was the happy hangover brunch at a classmates house. Several of Alex's classmates have moved back to the Big Island. Sometimes where you started out all is where you were meant to be all along!

Blog Builder
Make that 7 blogs! Today I built yet another one http://GreatScottClan.blogspot.com
Blogs I've built:
The best part is that you can have your entire (or partial) blog stories and pictures printed into a real hard back book. What a fun gift for your child to read when they are all grown up!

The Rocky Mountain Woodbillies
Our American Gothic Album cover
Luke Woodbury on Bass and Jessie Woodbury on FiddleMy instrument certainly is the more portable of the two! Luckily Luke lives in Wyoming and drove to Winter Park with the stand up Bass in tow. I mailed him two duet books a few months ago to practice on our own. Playing duets with a Woodbury relative certainly was one of the many highlights of the reunion. And also a good sign: musical talent is found in the Woodbury family!! Our future child has a chance! I named our duo The Rocky Mountain Woodbillies. Here is a snippet of the tango we put together. I always keep wooden laundry line clips in my case to be prepared for any outdoor concert weather. Luke was so impressed at my preparedness that I gave him my clips as a parting gift. He was so touched and moved, so when you can't think of what to give somebody, sometimes something as simple as clips can suddenly be the greatest gift in the world!
