Canyons, Arches, Bridges and red sandstone....

Northeastern AZ, through Monument Valley, Bridges National park and Cedar Mesa to the town of Moab.  An amazing day, yesterday.  Today Arches National Park, on a par with Bryce and Zion, sandstone, wind, rain and time did its work on creating a landscape  of arches and buttes that is a marvel to your eyes.  We rest in Ontario Oregon tonight and plan to be home tomorrow night, what a trip....

Heading north and home..

Spent a great day of hiking and golfing with sister Donna & Roger.  So heading out to do some canyon gauking and crater walking in southern Utah ....

Opa's take on little Jamieson

Jamieson Nash came onto the world PB (pickleball) court weighing in at 6 lbs 10 ounces. No other contenders arrived on March 1st, just him.  He has been kick boxing and punching for the last couple of months and is in top shape with a determined smile, but toothless.  His family supporters cheered as he popped out, even though the world match was not supposed to start for another 8 days.  We all like a winner and were impressed with his strong legs and the overhead smashing thrust of his strong arms.   The Pickleball community and especially Opa can't wait for him to join in the court fun.  In the meantime he is building stature day by day with the right combination of nutrients from mother Holly.  His sister Livia, and dad Stewart, are his biggest fans.  They are planning a Western Canada fan club, so wait for the announcement to join in celebrating on 27th Ave. Calgary SW.

Grandparents again,, happy days..

Great news.  Daughter Holly & Stewart added a new son Jamison to help sister Livia bring more joy to the family home.  Holly and Stewart went to the birthing centre at 11:30am, Jamison saw daylight at 1:32pm and all were home by 4:45 for dinner.  No messing around in the Stewart Nash household.  Jamison is a healthy 6 lb 10 ounces and is keen to see Nanna Mandy and Nanna Louise Nash who will be a little late getting there because he arrived about a week early.  Mandy comes back to Calgary from Mesa AZ and Louise from Palm Springs CA to help out, the grandpas are continuing to hit little white balls on short grass, and other important exercising pursuits.

Amazing, 3 golds today... Snowboard, Speed Skating and Pickleball

What Pickleball... a gold, yeh Mandy and Ken at VO, just picked up a gold medal for finishing top pairs at 1:15pm.  The crowd went wild, pictures taken and medals awarded as M & K beat out Laurette & Gail in the 2nd match game.  We came home and watched the Olympic Snowboard Gold winner Jayse-Jay and the three  Speed Skating Canucks beat out the USA team,  yeh, hey, gold, "its a great day in The Valley of the Sun, and Vancouver/Whistler BC".
