I guess its not having what you want - but wanting what you have. Is that a song?? cheryl crow??? Anyway.... In other words - making the most of what you have - I appreciated that so much about the brothers and sisters there. They have so little but love and give so much -

Oh and Shane - my Dad is now convinced he can make a hydrogen??? generator for the Dodge - He claims that if he does that and Dana starts making biodiesel he can get 85 mpg - We'll see - He may blow something up first.....

Dana's convinced me to go camping at the beach this weekend. It will be the first time camping with the kids. Uncle Bob is coming too. Should at least prove to be interesting. Maybe when you guys get back - you can come with us on the next trip. As long as I have no encounters with goats (smile Vanessa) I should be OK.

Love and miss you guys - keep up the blog.
