The Hampton (and related Noonan, Powell, Ungureanu, Gochanour, Westernoff, Kick, Ewing, O'Renick, Johnson- Nicholson, etc.) families, and friends, are doing great - At least the ones that I have heard from lately!
The Dow Index is back up around 10,000 points after falling to a low of 6,000 earlier this year...we all get to eat the good cat food next year...Hurray!
Gas is back up to around $3.30 per gallon, again. But not as high as the all time high of $4.70 per gallon in the Summer of 2008 (...That was a shameful $5+ if you lived in San Francisco). But then the big recession hit and gas went back to a good and "normal" ($1.90 per gallon)...what ever that means! Up it goes again...
My younger lovely Daughter Thera and Son-in-law Mike have been married for a year now...CONGRATS!!
My Son Eric is still working manufacturing and installing sheet metals into new buildings! Such are the hands of a tool expert! Eric and his girlfriend Michelle usually go camping, hicking, and experiencing other outdoor adventures...
My older lovely Daughter Chae (29+1 and holding) is spending most of her time with Son-in-law Ed and my 3 Grandboys; Garrett, Wyll, and D'Angelo. The Grandboys are spending fun time with their Grandma Becky. Garrett is in Jr. High Football, and D'Angelo is on a 2nd grade Soccer team. All three boys got A's on thier report cards, again...Congratulations for the hard work results!
Hope everyone is enjoying some nice weather, especially here in California...one day warm the next soggy!
Go hometown San Dimas! Howdy Donna D., Jim C., Darrell S., Barbara T., Brian T., Richard A., Tony A., and in Arkansas: Harry George J., Teddy (Joe) Theodore J., Tommy Dale J., and lovely Elizabeth Ann J.-O.! I hope you all are doing great this Fall with your families!
My Quotes to live by:
Where there's confusion...there's money to be made! Where there's love and friendship...there's fireworks 'bout to happen! Where there's Grandkids...there's naps to be had!
Amateur "Ham" Radio is fun...but it's all in the Antenna!
