Strolling In And Around My Head

TESLA MODEL 3 Purchase Process Well it is a great morning at the Kennesaw Tesla showroom. It is 7:00 AM on Thursday March 31, 2016 and I am 23rd in line. I am here to reserve two Tesla Model 3 cars. When I pulled up at the showroom I was lucky enough to sit directly behind my old boss at MuRata Electronics. True Tran was also in line to reserve a Model 3 so we had three hours to catch up. True is a very smart man and you have to be on your toes to have a conversation with him. I respect True and value his judgement. If he is buying a Model 3 then that is a smart move. Well it is 10:20 and I have just put down $3,000 for three Tesla Model 3's. I know I can only reserve two but as I was putting in my credit card the machine screwed up and I was able to reserve three. I just received my Tesla photos in the mail and was so happy to have it come in. I checked the MyTeslamotors.com website and they have three model three's in my name. Update - I now have two model 3 reservation

We took off during the winter and spent a week in Park City Utah with our friends the Fine's. Here are a few of my favorite photos that include the incredible views while on the mountains in Utah. My favorite things to do in Park City was snowmobiling, tubing, and of course skiing. David Fine and his family traveled to Park City before and really helped us out by renting a VRBO house for the week and helped us get set on skis and lift tickets. Check out the great views. I love the signs. Waterfall (which I did not want to go down because of the name) then you had Homerun. I always checked for the easiest way down. Park City Make sure you pack sun screen. You met a bunch of fin caricatures in Utah. She is waving to all who pass by. A Florida boy having fun in the snow. First time I was ever in snow this deep. WOW Like riding a HD except no one is trying to run you over. Had a blast on the snowmobile.

Girl on a mission!

Well here is a fun picture of the Mayes girls. Tamara on the left with Beth on the right. Lee is in the middle and having a great time like always. It is so fun to see Lee and the girls together. This photo shows all three just like they want to always be, comfortable and having fun. This is so typical. David pops up with someones bathing suit. You have to watch this boy. I think later in his years we will see him holding up little bikini tops and bottoms. The kids enjoying the great outdoors. I need to mention that the Ferrous Wheel  in St. Augustine is the FIRST Ferrous Wheel that Little David ever road.

Robert and Allison about to take off on a bike ride in Disney World. A photo of Robert just about to take out the karate instructor.  Robert and Allison together. I don't know what the occation was, but I am thinking it was the 4th of July for some reason.

Yes this is Allison running the bases at Turner Field. You can tell from her tongue sticking out that she is flying. Just look at her feet are both off the ground. She had a couple fans sitting in the back watching her run. I don't know how much they paid to watch be we never saw any money from the run. Go Allison!!! Allison let me ride on the back of her lawn mower. We gave the mower to the Lowery's for a house warming gift. I was trying to think of a way to keep the mower so I could ride it around the hood. We are on the driveway of 4199 Long Branch Drive.

How fun is this. The first plane ride. They are coming back from Disney World and are about to take off.

My favorite photo of me and the kids. Tamara was working so we held up this tree while a nice person took out photo. Another fun photo of the kids. Nice old cabin at the park.

Superman came by Robert's birthday party this afternoon. He flew in and stayed with Robert for about an hour. He was really great with the kids and with Tamara. Love these two photos of Allison and Tam. Allison rockin the moves.

O have no idea what the punchline was.  Allison was dressed up as Blues Clues. One of our favorite TV shows. She was so hot we did not stay in the Blues Clues outfit for very long. I think they design halloween costumes for Fargo ND. Allison in the kitchen getting ready to start cooking. Conner, Allison, Casey, and Clair on the sofa on a sleep over. Yes they all spent the night and no one went home early.

Allison is always on the move. She loves taking off and seeing the sights. Here she is sitting on the 4-wheeler with Pop and Dad up at the mountain property. She also has her own Barbie jeep and Clair Hillis is driving her around while Allison is on the phone. I think Clair is texting while she is driving, that is why they are up on the curb. Mountain Property View What a great smile from both of them. Dad and Allison on the 4-Wheeler.  One texting and the other on the phone. 

What a great time in a child's life. We really did it up with toys and great time with the family. Robert and Allison sat on Santa's lap and had the best of times. You can tell from the photo that everyone was having a great time and we are all enjoying the time with Santa. Robert and Allison having a great time on Santa's lap. Just check out the great expression on Santa. Clasic.  I still think we should have sent this photo out as our Christmas card . Allison dreaming of Santa. This is right before Allison eat some change at Aunt Nancy's house. Check out the chair rail and boarder. Love the changing table and Allison's belly. Robert and Allison in the big bathtub.

Here are some of my favorite photos of all time. Tam and I had just moved into our new home (20 years old) and we have two babies. Robert is three and Allison is two. Robert at the top of the stairs ready to break free. Just the sweetest face in the whole world. Allison is on the floor having the best time. Sooooo Stinking Cute. Fathers day is one of those days that fill your heart. Love the cards and sweet notes. Allison and Robert would rip through the house on their Ollies. They had a blast on these things. Our house had a stairway in the middle and that made for a fun track that circled the house. They fly around here like they were heading to the races. Al Mayes reading to Allison.
