Kate Cook Arrives in San Antonio!


And goes to the Alamo. (She wanted to see the basement.)



She thinks this is a better pose.



Kate on a bridge over the Riverwalk. The restaurant we ate at (and fed the ducks at) is on the right.

So, yes, Nancy, your little girl is fine and happy.

Happy Birthday Dear Nana




Today is May 23rd, 2009. Mt Nana. Isobel Florence Foster Shurr, was born 103 years ago today.

Whom I miss every single day.

I don't think I've ever recovered from her loss.

Julian's Senior Concert May 12th, 2009



The audio's pretty muddy, the video is from a camera phone, but there are places where you can hear his solo quite well. It's a Tchaikovsky piece, and I loved it.

He's been accepted to George Washington university in Washington DC. Almost a full ride, First Chair in violin this year. Summa Cum Laude with a 4.35 gpa. Voted "Most Likely To Succeed," literally.

Better kid than I deserve, certainly.
