Hi Again,

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you all.

Gee, what did we do wrong? A year has gone already? Amazing.....as it speeds up each year.

We are both fine. Although, to be honest we both need to lose some weight. Someone, suggested to Tom this year that he should get back into shape…his response... "round is a shape!"

Frank is now the Secretary of his Rodeo Association, as well as webmaster. He keeps quite busy with their activities and his other web sites. He won Best Website of the Year from the International Rodeo Association for his work on his association's website.

Tom continues at SAIC, and hopefully will complete his 20th year there this fall. That is a nice goal achievement. He hopes to stay beyond that, as long as it continues to be fun and he enjoys the work.

Our local Rodeo was a great success. Tom's nephew, Lee, flew in from Ohio and enjoyed the Rodeo and visit.

We took a week plus trip to San Diego, CA, and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Plus we saw their Rodeo out there.

Anyway, have a great Holiday Season.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Years,

Tom and Frank

PS - A short note of apology. It seems that a few people noticed that last year our Christmas card was not as fancy as in previous years. Back when we sent out our first Christmas CD, we spent 3 weeks preparing it and the publication, packaging and shipping ended up being quite expensive. We have attempted to save some expenses, and this year Frank was rather ill during the period he would normally have been preparing the CD, so this year's is a bit slim. Then there's always next year.

Happy Holidays.
