Valentine's Day 2010




Hi Everyone-

So - as I mentioned...we went to Dublin for the Valentine's day weekend. As usual, our trips always have a bit of wildlife in them. We got a ticket to ride on a train that hugged the coast south of Dublin. We found a place called Booterstown where there was a wildlife refuge - so we got off the train. There were large flocks of birds by the sea and we enjoyed shooting them. The next day we walked along the river that runs through Dublin and were treated to the birds with the red feet.

The best thing about Dublin is the music scene. We found ourselves at the Auld Dublin two nights in a row to see Brian Brody. He reminded us of great times we've had a Copper Mountain after a hard day of skiing. And, of course, you get the best Guinness in the world!

Enjoy!

February 20, 2010 - Catching Up







Hey Everyone-

Sorry for the wicked long delay between posts. Seems like time has just flown by.... You probably know that we went off the Egypt for Thanksgiving (http://www.cherylawarren.com/Egypt09/index.html). That was an extra ordinary trip where we met extraordinary people and loved every minute of it! Cruising the Nile is really all it is cracked up to be. You literally see life as it was for 100s of years.

From there we headed off to Antarctica on a trip of a lifetime! Our friend John McDaniel went on the adventure with us. (http://www.cherylawarren.com/Antarctica09/index.html and http://www.cherylawarren.com/Antarctia%20v02.wmv. Cheri put together a book of some of the best Penguin shots that she and John took. It can be found at http://www.blurb.com/bookstore/detail/1146833.

The only bad news is that Cheri got Pneumonia from one of her fellow passengers and it has taken weeks to be resolved. Thankfully - she is much, much better now! So for a while we were sticking pretty close to home.

For Valentine's Day we did head to Dublin and really enjoyed the music and the Guinness!

Some great news in our family - Cheri's sister Jodi is getting married to Rob Chang!!!! We are all so excited for them!

Hope you are all finding happiness in 2010!
