For Mark McCleary

Ok! Ok! we'll post again - thanks Mark for pestering us into action again.

We wanted to share some updated photos with anyone still coming by this blog - some pics of Liam and maybe some other stuff.


Liam the pianist?


Chattanooga Zoo


Mowing the yard - two is better than one.

Our friend Nicole - the movie maker

Jenna and I are very excited about the future for a friend of ours. Nicole Deane made this short documentary about the 30 hour famine through her church - we can't imagine the good stuff that we'll see from her in the future.

Nearly a year

It is coming close to a year since we last said anything here. I think that the seasons are changing and we will be back to a point where we can blog once in a while again. Needless to say that our silence has largely been due to the demands of looking after a baby, a dog, both of us working as much as we can, studying, fixing leaks in the roof, trying to figure out how to avoid chemicals and still achieving a great lawn, reading books and still being confused by so much.... on and on and on.... it's life jim..

As a quick aside - I saw the movie versoin of Les Miserables last night (it takes me a while to catch up with the rest of the planet) - what a great story of grace triumphing over the law.

More soon.

Introducing Liam Andrew Henderson

Liam Andrew Henderson
8lbs 3/4oz
Born: 2.56am, May 2nd 2006.

There is a limit to how much talent one household can have on their porch swing. We maxed out with Susan Enan & Julie Lee. 

A week or two ago Tim & Elizabeth took us out to this place called Bells Bend. It was farm land and has now been bought by the parks department. Very soon it will become a public park, but for now it is empty, the only thing that shared the space with us was the one skunk we saw. 

Granville again

Sunset at Granville 

Granville

Another view - at sunrise if I remember right. 

This is one of the views from the deck of the cabin. 

While in Granville it snowed and Lewis seemed to feel very comfortable in it all. 

We haven't put anything new up in a while, that's why these are a little out of date. In january we went to Granville (!hour outside of Nashville) to stay in a friends "cabin". You can just see the roof of the cabin on top of the hill in the picture. It's a great view from up there. 

For all you complainers

Gosh, you don't post for a few weeks and all you get are complaints. I've been delving into the depths of American culture don't you know and it's very distracting. Here is the evidence:

Time spent in London is time well spent..... mostly

More pics from the trip. The end of the trip was spent in London with the lovely Catherine and Jude.... and the very smart and talented Mark.

Fish & Chips

Weird I know but I was really looking forward to this meal, enough to take a piture of it.

The North Coast

One of my favourite places to be.

Downhill

There is an area up on the North Coast called Downhill, it's has its cliff top ruins and big windswept beaches. It also has one of the worlds best Hostels, run by William and McCall - www.downhillhostel.com/

Some photos from the trip.

These photos were all taken around the Castlerock area on the North Coast, where my Mum now lives - which works out nicely for us.

Having some photo problems

We were hoping to send some photos of our trip as we went along - but due to a lack of computer access (not really a bad thing) and not being able to upload photos to the blog from this computer this hasn't happened. We'll have to post them when we get back.

This one is for Jude

Jude, we need to get you a close up of our local pigs. Can you see those little pink spots? Welcome to life in Tennessee!!
