It's about time!

We have really enjoyed reading our children's blogs, looking at their photos and following their activities. With school now in hiatus and the stress level below the intense level (for some of us), it's time to join the rest of the family.

Of course, Dana will insist that since we never do anything, why bother with a blog at all. I think it's more a matter of the small things, the random thoughts that help build the ties we're looking to strengthen. Distance really used to be a difficulty when all you had to bridge it was a telephone and letters. Now we're not limited to when and how we can "reach out and touch someone". Even a computer camera can provide instant connections. A blog is another tool, just like letters and a telephone.

So this is a beginning. Rick and I are both comfortable with technology, just a little slow in learning new applications. But we're flexible. Gibson's are always flexible!
