This little peanut just melts me - February 12, 2007
My daughter gets the biggest kick out of doing funny things with her two children. Nothing dangerous, just having fun. She literally is entertained by the kids. Usually, Jose has only one "Palm Tree" on her head looking like Pebbles on the Flintstones. But today my daughter has to go for the whole enchilada.Yes, we do carry on the family tradition of having the "bare butt" pictures too so they can show their friends when they become teenagers. : )
Grandpa's Birthday Party - January 21, 2007
This is the first time that I realized all my grandchildren were available for a picture. I jumped up and ran into the kitchen where the adults were and shouted someone get a camera quick, all the kids are in the living room! While I get the kids rounded up Paula grabs the only available camera. Yup, dead batteries, and me trying to keep the children together while new ones are put in. That's tough especially after they gorged themselves on chocolate birthday cake. So here is the best shot we managed.
Youngest and Eldest
My "1st born" child Sharon holding her daughter, my youngest grandchild, Josephine. November 2006.
High School Sweetheart is older now

Just Married

The one in the middle
Just couldn't forget my pretty, unmarried 30 year old daughter. Robin is a teacher in Fairfax County Virginia and is assigned to a school in Great Falls, VA near the Potomac River.
When I'm not playing Guitar.....
you can usually hear me playing mandolin. I've had this Gibson F5 Model mandolin since 1973. I finally settled in to playing Bluegrass Music and play as often as I can.
My oldest Daughter Sharon and Family
1 December 2005
Although kicking and screaming Mitchell still managed to get his parents into the studio and smile for the picture. Mitchell is 14 months young in this picture. His parents are older.
High School Sweetheart
For those who do not remember my girlfriend during my senior year, here is her picture. This was taken during 1966/7 time frame. Paula Mitchell lived about one third of the way up French Hill Road on the right. We married in November 1968.
BIO
I married at the end of 1968 and we moved to Lodi where we lived till 1973. Our first daughter was born in 1972 and a year later we moved to northern Virginia where we still reside. We have three children and five grandchildren at the moment. Now that the children are grown the wife and I have time for us. Boy is that great.
I'm still into music and cars. I've restored and customized a few over the years and continue to play and write music. Most of my family still reside in the NJ/NY area. My sister Jean Huntington (Milano), has been quite active in Wayne during the past 30 years.
I work in the IBM large computer data communications world and Paula does Neurotherapy, EEG distentrainment. I have no idea what it all means other than she enjoys her work.
My latest projects are the building and adding to the 40th Wayne High School 1967 Reunion, Web Site and helping my son launch his new career in residential improvements.
It is Finally out of the body shop
This is a guy thing, except for the girl who used to beat me racing on Berdan Ave with her 64 Impala. I have been on an El Camino kick for some years and this one just has to be my last one. Not sure what trouble I'll get into next but I sure hope it's not another EC.
