Moving to Colorado
Friday, April 27, 2007
In recent news, we have been importing everyone we can to Colorado. Among those on the list are Craig Rothgery & Ria, Erica & Jason, and Max & Heidi will also be moving out to Colorado in late summer 2007. Hmmm, let me see, which one is Max? Oh yes, he's the one on the right.Labels: colorado, Max Muller, Muller, photograph

Max Makes Photo of the Day
Friday, February 23, 2007
Max makes photo of the day on a trip I was supposed to be on. Jealous? You could say that, but not for the damn photo -- I'm jealous that he's chest deep in the powdery of pow.

Swimming Hole No More
Thursday, January 4, 2007
244 Temple Street was a famous house in my little college town: vineyard in the back yard, path leading to a creek for swimming, long double driveway for student parking. No more. Now, as you can see, there is a "back to the future"-like development going up. No more quiet, no more dirt paths to swim, and no more loud music played until all hours. Now, there are neat little houses all lined up.
Don't get me wrong, people need a place to live. I'm just always let down at the amount of brilliant swimming holes lost to neighborhoods.
Up there in the photo, the barn/garage you see used to be the only thing you would see. The house is to the right, and the new development road cuts right through our old BBQ, dirt path area down to the vineyard/creek.

Prost!
Monday, November 27, 2006
Not exactly a scrap: this image is a cropped and colored section of Oma Muller and Aunt Erna 'prosting' on the back porch of the 8778 house. Thought I'd point that out over here so you can take a look. I can't link to it, because it is one of our sites, and those who are in charge of these sorts of things will see it as gratuitous.Although, if you happen to be reading our page on wine, the link to which you can find on our links page, you'll notice this image. You'll also notice that these two lovely ladies are holding their wine glasses by the stem. Opa Muller always used to make a big point on that when toasting; the clinking just sounded so much better that way (not to mention the heat from your hand didn't warm up your wine). Cheers!

Happy Birthday to Oma
Monday, September 4, 2006
We made it back to New York and survived the 30 hour bonanza --arriving 10am Saturday and departing 4pm Sunday. Suzanne's wedding was really nice (they cut their cake with a sword!) and Oma's birthday brunch was splendid.I never did like the phrase "## years young." I always thought it was a little worse than just saying the actual fact; instead of saying how old someone was, the "young" phrase really just points out how old someone is. On that note, Oma is old. She's really old. She's 91 years old. She rocks, and she has more energy than I do.
Happy Birthday, Oma!
