Nudity

Does this thing get censored? Just curious. I love this blogging thing. Getting the smack and lowdown on Rhino Expats. Here's the Larkin Family pics. We bought a house in May and fixed it up for a month before moving in. The house had a grease fire in '97 so it was completely brought up to code, then some guy turned it into a vanilla resale project and lost his shirt to the insurance company. We came in at the right time and got a sweet deal. 970sqft, 3bd, 1 bth. We took up the carpet and had the floors redone in the living/dining, hall and spare room [aka Den]. Painted everything non-off white eggshell, totally revamped the kitchen with new counters, flooring and appliances (the stainless facing on the counters isn't installed yet but imagine its glory). Sici is 2 1/2 and loving life. She and Ash take adventures and work at making our house livable each day. Ash is doing well and considering starting up some writing projects now. We'll be working towards baby #2 in the near future, can't have too much normalcy. Oh yeah and I got my real estate license for work and did the Cycle Oregon Weekend (130 miles over two days) first day was 85 miles in 103 degrees, miserably hot but it easily tripled the distance of any ride I'd done before that. Felt good.

On with the show. Forgive me I've forced into a PC world with zero adequate photo software.

  • btw, mike, no censoring at all. not by anyone but the administrator of the blog, and unless we get some funky comments from some nasty comment-making spam-spewing machine, i won't be censoring anything. gentlemen, write at will!

  • Sounds like a great deal on the house. I like that kitchen floor, very cool.

    I'm into biking now too. Bought myself a road bike at a local shop's spring swap and have been huffing and puffing on the local roads all summer. Haven't done any 85 mile rides yet but I'd like to shoot for some longer rides next summer. The bummer is that we can't cycle year-round here.

    I bought a Trail-a-bike and I pull Lucia around behind my mountain bike on the bike path along the lake...she loves it but I wish I could train her to actually pedal when we go up hills.
