Is It Worth Waiting For?

There are some individuals (Keith Waggoner) who can find the time to post on their blog nearly every day! My hat is off to the man - I'm doing good getting here once a month. But, be encouraged because I have some new pictures from our snow in Idaho to our California weekend trips. Here goes!
Taylor playing with his train set he got for Christmas. Why didn't they have things like this when I was a kid?
Diane has a new job working at God's Garden of Learning Daycare and Preschool. So that means she gets home after six - which in turn means I make dinner!! Exciting! Here I have some eager, willing helpers. Taylor is scrubbing potatos and carrots for me and Courtney helped pour stuff into pans. They do like to help me out with different things.

We have had probably the most snow in town except one other time when we first moved to Idaho. Taylor and I went outside on the big snow shoveling excursion. Everything went pretty good until Taylor started doing this stuff...


One of these times I caught some of his shovel of snow in the face! I was REALLY blessed!!

We headed to Ripon, CA for a weekend and sang in Sacramento, etc. Here is some of the snow we encountered on our trip there. This was around Truckee, CA.

We headed home for the week and then left again last night for a little "southern" California trip. This is around San Francisco. The island, mid-right of the picture, is the famous "Alcatrez" prison. I would love to tour this historical site but I'm afraid they would keep Dan and Royce.

A little better shot of the prison.

Heading across the bridge. I love these views!

The size of the cargo ships are incredible!


When we arrived at our motel, Dan and I scrubbed up the bus to give it a better look for our weekend of concerts. Keith and Royce, well -- they headed for the rooms.


I hope you enjoyed the little pictoral update. I'll try to get back a little more often. Peace out!

A few comments:You get to be a child again and enjoy the toys with Taylor. When can I come for supper? Snow is fun when you don't have to travel in it.How come Royce & Keith didn't have to clean the bus? As for prison, I'm glad that you didn't take the chance. Yes, it was worth waiting for as always. God Bless, Shelby

Where is everyone? I have expected lots of posts regarding your last post. Maybe it was intended just for me to enjoy! Which I did. Shelby

Thanks for posting, Doran, and letting me vicariously travel with you to San Francisco, and snowy California. I had wondered if you guys ran into any deep snow while there. Now I know that there was enough to get the bus dirty. Ha!
Royce's Aunt Neva
P.S. You surely do have cute kids!
