Helping with the family duties.

Used appliances sold in Brussels. So many perfectly usable items are discarded today, rather than being repaired and re-purposed. I thought it was great that this vendor not only sold used fridges, but he also had one on display that was beautified - made into a treasure.

My daughter, her husband and newborn baby. My daughter, Jessica, was determined to have her baby before her husband, Matt, would ship out on the cruiser Ronald Reagan. She made it! January 1, 2005 Georgia Porter was born! Her husband, Matt shipped out the next day to the Gulf. It was wonderful and very sad at the same time.
