DarWinz-Doinz: If you're still visiting, here....?

If you're still visiting, here....?

Yes, I have "abandoned" this site. I know there were a couple of family members that did visit the site but I got to feeling like I was just bragging about our very pleasant surroundings here in beautiful Oregon...that some viewers might be put off that I spoke only of our accumulations, etc.

I've begun a new site here on Blogger. I'll name it simply Winz-Journal.blogspot.com. It will be private access but I'll gladly invite any interested family member or personal friend to access it. My plan is for it to become my online memory of what has transpired in my life on a (so hopefully) daily basis. I've tried to maintain a journal many times in the past few years...have always abandoned my fitful starts. This time, I feel a much deeper sense of commitment...for some reason...that I'll never understand...

If you do visit my new journal site, PLEASE leave some sort of comment?

SORRY IF MY TUNES STARTLED YOU?

Kill the tunes? Just hit the big "pause" button below.
Also! Dismember (oops...remember) to pause this jukebox before you play any other audio feature, here?

I realize there are mixed opinions about the advisability of having moosik "auto-start" on a blog for a few reasons: You may not like my tastes; you may already have your own tunes running in the background; or mine were unexpected?

Guess all I can say if the moosik didn't impress you none is: I just had to use the first 4. (good theme, huh?) It grew into a monster from there...and I'm not expecting that many visitors...?

What's going on around us? ...or... Social Calendar

Val's Wayne...finally gets hitched on June 12th! Super, huge congrats, Wayne! If any of us deserve this state of martital (or is that martial?) bliss, you're overdue! (Chew on that thought for awhile? LOL)

Val 'n Mary...will be making a rush trip to Portland at the end of the school year to visit daughter, Lisa. She's just married and she's a grandmother awready! Go figure?
(Mebbe it's true that I'm my own grampa!? That would explain soooo much, huh?)

Skyler 'n Catina...will be visiting us from June 19th-24th, then on to their grandparents in Washington. Can't wait, kids!

Val, Mary 'n most of their families will be just 45 miles North on the coast from us from July 17th to 24th! Why don't you guys just move on up here, hermanito. I'd sure vote for that!

Birthdays (Please help me with new additions?...month 'n date only)

These are listed in calendar order.

Note: I will post my personal posterity here as they indicate an unconditional interest in us, or in this site.

For those members of Darlene's family who have all been of invaluable support, please provide missing birthdays so we can include them here, too?
