Friday, Ben and I left for a weekend trip in the Finger Lakes region of New York State to camp, kayak and sight see. We had a great time and more pictures will follow. Ben is to be graduated from UB (University at Buffalo) this semester with a degree in mechanical engineering. I'm not sure what opportunities he will be following, but it was nice to spend some time with my son before other more pressing priorities occupy him.

ps... sorry for the hole in my PaD's. We'll be back at it now pretty regularly. Missed you folks.
