Ruth Lonnemann Memorial

Wednesday, November 30, 2005

Some of you have been asking where memorials or flowers can be sent for my Grandmother, Ruth Lonnemann. I hope the following information will answer your questions. For 5 plus years my Grandmother received medicines, free of charge, from The St. Vincent dePaul Society and their Pharmacy. My Grandfather requests that memorials be sent to St Vincent dePaul in support of the Pharmacy.

When I started looking for a picture of my Grandmother Lonnemann I was thinking of a picture of only her. I went and looked at the pictures from my most recent trip to Kentucky and found a picture where my Grandmother had a nice smile on her face. I then started to crop the picture, but, something felt wrong. It didn't seem right to crop my Grandfather out of the picture. Soon I realized that I shouldn't crop myself out either. Why, I thought to my self, should I take away from the picture its most important quality, the fact that this is a picture of a moment in my Grandmother's life and not simply a picture of her. Who would ever want to live their life as it ... [There is more. Click on the title above.]

Snoqualmie Pass: Silver Peak

Monday, October 17, 2005

It appears that Silver Peak is one of my favorite hikes as I have been there three times now. Thinking briefly about it I guess this should not be a surprise as Silver Peak is easy to drive to, moderate in length, and provides excellent views. Click through for a nine picture photo album from my third hike to Silver Peak.

October Visit to Kentucky

Sunday, October 16, 2005

In an effort to reduce the backlog of pictures I have to post I'm writing this as I fly back to Seattle from my visit to Northern Kentucky. This 9 day 8 night trip was an opportunity for me to spend some time with my Grandparents, family, friends, and a day of work. Hold on, did I say an opportunity to work! The real opportunity was not to work but to meet coworkers at the Cypress Kentucky CAD Center. Looking back on this trip I wish I had more pictures, even so I have quite a few that I hope my friends and family will enjoy seeing here at PIAP.com.

Iron Horse Trail: Twin Falls to Snoqualmie Tunnel

Sunday, October 16, 2005

People ask me if I like living in Seattle and I say, "yes the only thing that is missing is my family". Then I try to explain how great it is having the mountains, deserts, volcanos, glaciers, temperate rain forests, ocean, and Seattle all within no more than a two hour drive. I never really feel like I've made a convincing argument, so, I hope these pictures will help to explain one aspect of what a wonderful area the Pacific Northwest is. The following photo album contains pictures I took while riding my bike along part of the Iron Horse Trail.

2005 Walk to D'Feet ALS

Saturday, October 1, 2005

For the forth year in a row I had the privilege of joining the Dream Team in the Walk to D'Feet ALS. Thank you to everyone that supported Heather's Dream Team and sponsored me as a walker this year. With your help the Dream Team raised more than $6,150 for patient services here in the Evergreen State and nationally directed research for treatments and a cure for ALS also know as Lou Gehrig's Disease and medically as Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis. The pictures in this photo album were taken before during and after the walk.
