Jeff and Lesley and Mom and Dad go to England. 16 days in jolly old E. We spent a week in a 400 year old pub in the village of Shipham called the Penscott Inn in the West country. We met some very nice people there and were even invited to a shooting club for the day with a group of guys we met at the pub. We stayed in Bristol with our great friends Dave and Trudy and had a wonderful tour of the city of Bristol. Dave also showed us around Bath too. We moved to London for the remainder of our trip where we saw Spamalot in the West End and found a terrific Italian restaurant in Muswell Hill that we ate at four days in a row!

Annual Pilgrimage to Las Vegas to see all of the latest in electronics. I spent too much time at Alexis Park looking at the high end gear. We also were able to play an early build of Battlefield 2 on line with the developers.

Back to Melville for the annual Harvest BBQ. This year we went with Mom and Dad and Kenny and Tami. Barbara and Gary were there too since they live and work there. The food was great and we were allowed to taste new, unreleased wines as well as barrel samples. An amazing day.

The annual Game Knights camping trip put together by Derek and Dionne put us in Yosemite for a week. We camped at 8000 feet and had great weather with the exception of our daily rain/hail storm around 3 o'clock every day. Yosemite was gorgeous!

Our favorite winery. Lesley, Dad, Mom and I head to wine country for a day of wine education... OK. Lots of wine, good food and great company.

CES 2004. Geeking out in Las Vegas. What could be better than electronics, booth babes, booze and gambling all in the same place?

Our favorite winery! Lesley and I had a great time. The Melville folks put on a great event with amazing food, more wine than you can imagine and a live band. The weather was perfect as was the company of the other Melville fans that were at the BBQ.
