Season’s greetings, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to everybody.

We had a relatively quiet end-of-year celebration this year. Mostly spent with family and a few close friends. I think the kids had a good time again this year, and after all, Christmas is really for them anyway, right?

You can see some of our good times in the Christmas/New Year 2009 gallery over there on the right.

From all of us to all of you, we wish you a very happy and prosperous 2010.

We brought Missy, Casper’s daughter, home in October. She will be three months old on November 14. Casper is adjusting to the new puppy pretty well, but I think he misses quite a bit of his nap time. That is OK. He needs the exercise anyway. Daddy Casper, by the way, will be three years old in December.

Take a look at some of the first shots of the two of them in the Casper and Missy gallery.

I’ve been pretty busy, but I finally got a chance to take a couple of days in August to visit one of my favorite parts of Costa Rica–Arenal Volcano. The weather wasn’t great, but it wasn’t bad either. We did see the volcano a couple of afternoons between the rains.

The volcano was quiet, but it was steaming and we saw gas clouds flowing down the side one day.

I’ve posted a few of the better daytime photos for you to take a look at. Find the link over on the right side of this page.

If you are interested in Costa Rican volcanoes, I have more images posted at Cocori.com. There are more photos of Arenal Volcano as well as shots of Poas, Turrialba, and Irazu volcanoes.

Welcome to my photoblog. It consists of several categories of photos from different time periods and widely various subjects. Some of the galleries will be public, while others shall remain private for family, friends, and business associates. Most photos in the public galleries today are old. I’ll be adding newer ones as I can. In any case please feel free to comment as you see fit.

Thanks for taking your time to look.
