Oh, no!


Just in time for summer break, Matt broke his wrist at school. He's doing fine, though, and the cast should be off in three weeks.


At a district-wide academic competition a couple of weeks ago, Matt won just about every subject he entered.

School's Out!


Kayla got an award from her teacher and principal the last week of school.


Kayla's school had a field day a couple of weeks ago. These are some girls from her class.


Here's the latest version of Frankenbike. It keeps getting better, but also weirder looking. Biggest change lately is the new battery packs, which are mounted to the frame. The black bag on the back is now battery-free, meaning I can actually carry stuff now. The new batteries are 8 lbs lighter than the old ones, and store 70% more energy (Less exercise!).

New Car


Here's our Scion XB, that we got Tuesday. Looks kinda like those metal storage buildings they sell at Home Depot. It's already dirty from yesterday's rain. Just filled the tank for the first time; it got about 30 mpg on the first tank from the dealer. Very roomy inside, has a nice stereo, doesn't leak oil on the driveway, and I don't have to shift it into L at stoplights to get it going when the light turns green. Luxury!
