    Happy Fathers Day!

    Guys, how special can a day be? Well, today really stole the show for me. Please see a brief photo journal of "Portrait, the making".

    I can honestly say, if there's never another person in my life, I am content. How lucky can one man be to have a daughter as beautiful inside as she is outside. Today, thanks to my Mother, her image is frozen in time to when she is 16. The whole world awaits her. What will she do, what will she be? Well, I cannot wait to find out. Ok, maybe I can wait.

    Mr. John Todd Waterman did the portrait with nothing but a box of broken chalk. Wow! 30 years experience. I have to say he captured my daughter's looks, personality, and maybe just a bit of the woman she is growing into. Simply beautiful. I will cherish this always.

    Happy Father's Day you Dad's out there. My daughter gets to come over for Pizza over at my Sister's house tomorrow. A bonus, since she isn't with me this weekend. Already said how special today was, getting to see her pose.

      Very pretty daughter Lex, and what a nice portrait of her. That will remain in the family for generations. The parent and child relationship is what being a father is all about.

        Thanks guys. She is the center of my universe. There's no doubt about that.

        I think she always will be, even when she's all grown up, because she will always be my little girl.

            Congratulations to Lex and all the other father's out there!

            I'm in the middle of a trip which started last week, so I won't be celebrating Fathers day with my soon to be 17 year old daughter until next Sunday.

            Lex, that's a lovely painting, and I think I have an idea of how much that means to you- a friend of mine did a portrait of my daughter for me when she was about 8-9, and it's certainly something I'll always treasure.

            Best regards,

            Jon

                Yes, HBFD to all!

                Man I'm a lucky guy, this is what was given to me for father's day,



                It's a Callaway Glider walking bag. I have a very good Izzo Delight, which I love, but this is from my girls, and that can't be beat.

                    But one story of the Virginia Tech masacre, Reema Samaha
                    by Lex
                    I know many of you have kept up with the events of the Tragedy of Virginia Tech this week. I too have watched, and tried to learn more, to make some sense of this senseless tragedy. The bottom line is, there is no sense to be made, it's just chaos, heartache, horrific bloodshed, hurt and destroyed...

                    Hi

                    Wonder if some of you could point me in the right direction?
                    I'm looking into building a pair of speakers for my daughter.
                    Her taste seems to towards pop/rock, for example bands like Imagine Dragons. She is not very mutch into hifi, but finally start to think that she might...
