Nine years ago today, we got the keys to our first home. This picture was taken in early September 2001 just a few weeks before we got the keys. It was taken by our friend Mike at night. We are standing on the front porch in front of the kitchen. I can’t believe that was nine years ago! Oh, the things we’ve learned since then…

I remember walking through the 2×4′s in my first home on California St. It was a great feeling to know that I had made the “American Dream”. There wwas no picket fence though. Just some chain link in the back yard. That was in 1970.
