Near the end of the stint with the Sea-Bees in Okinawa.

This is my dad in Palm Wash. He is slowing down. He only hikes about 40 miles a week. I don't have time to hike that much! He's done a lot of artistic constructions in his life. Helped design and build my house, as well as his own. He has probably read about 100 times as many books as I....I don't have time to read books.

Here's my dad's mom, Judith Johnson. She could play the piano, and prepared some ledgendary holiday feasts. She was pretty cool.

Here are a few of my dad's relatives: Richard Tower (my cousin Joanne's spouse), Richard Rupp (my cousin), uncle Francis Rupp (dad's sister's spouse), and I. Playing a little cards.
