Skiing at Alta
Went skiing on December 23, 2004 with brother Michael and dad Gail. We had about 5 inches of fresh new snow and it was about 10 degrees. So it was sunny, cold, and we had fresh snow. A pretty good day!
Michael’s dial-up connection is too slow to try to add a photo, so I’ll have to do that when we get home from Costa Rica.
Brian in South Park
If you go to http://southparkstudios.com/games/create.html you can create your own South Park character. The one I’ve added here looks like me, if I were to ever be on the show.
Where is Ski Season
The little bit of snow we had is now getting rained on. The CMONSTR wants to get out into the snow and Ripley needs to experience snow for the first time!
Paris Photos
I just added some of the photos from our Paris trip, so visit http://spaces.msn.com/members/grothadventures/ to see them.
We are trying to figure out where to keep our online photo album: here in MSN Spaces, or in our MSN Group at http://groups.msn.com/BrianandLorieGroth.
Brian’s trip to a wine cellar and some great French wine and food is at: http://blogs.msdn.com/bgroth/archive/2004/12/02/273655.aspx
Getting $5000 to buy a greener car
Every company should do this: MSNBC – Company’s perk: $5,000 to buy clean car
We just bought a VW New Beetle TDI (a diesel bug) and we run BioDiesel in it, which is vegetable oil.
Brian and Lorie’s Children: the bunny and the dog
Our herd or pack does not consist of children. We have a niece and nephew for that. We have Theo the Bunny and Ripley the Puppy (soon to be Ripley the Dog). So we will keep our photos of these great family members on this blog.
