Happy Birthday Maren

Okay, Tim gets into the spotlight too, but only because I thought this was a nice photo of you, Maren, and because it is a great example of what a fine supporter of family you are.
love you,
Dad

ABBOTT WINS!

Sam raced at Sundance this evening, after a day of jackhammer hell.
Here some of the photos of the victory -- one of the racers he beat was the brother of Kurt Apostle, whose Euclid Timberframe provided plans and the frame for our house (notice his do-rag from "Survivor -- the TV show he competed on). Notice Sam's Heli-Bikers shirt -- a reference to the jackhammer hell, I think.
Congratulations Sam!

So Jake and I climbed Castleton Tower outside of Moab sunday morning. And it was really nice. And other than getting our rope stuck as we pulled it from the first rappel down to the second and brainstorming how well we would do sleeping 250 feet off the ground, everything went great.

ABBOTT WINS!
