OK, I don't know that we'll get any more exciting than that last post, so we're shutting this blog down.
Ha, just kidding. Kind of.
The problem is twofold. First, Fenton set up this blog, but didn't give anyone else administrative privileges. Therefore, although we can all post, we can't change anything about the blog. This has recently proven to be a major problem, as Mom's account no longer works.
Second, Derrick and Julie are sharing the blog with Mom and Dad (and Sarah and Rocky). Which means that we have to post pictures here, and then mail them out to the Lunds, since they probably don't want to hear about all the crazy things that Mom and Dad are always posting . . . hypothetically speaking, of course.
So this, I think, is a good solution. We'll set up two new blogs: one for Derrick and Julie, and one for Mom, Dad, Sarah, Rocky, and undesirables (I'm thinking of sticking close to the original title--maybe News O' Hughes). We'll give Sam administrative privileges over the main site (and I'll retain them as well).
I'll also look into seeing if there is some way that we can force blogger to update the main site when a post is made on a subsidiary family site, but that's probably not feasible.
Anyway, let me know what you think. Great job commenting on Sarah's post, those of you who did comment. Abby, by the way, we got four inches today too.
Also, let me know if you have any suggestions for naming either blog. Here are some other names that occurred to me for ours:
Fairy Princess Punk Rocker
Lawyer, Author, Princess, Punk
DJCZ
We found this is Zerah's bed the other night. I wonder who could have put it in...
In Thailand you only wear a seatbelt if you are in the front seat. Abraham enjoyed wandering around in the car, accidentally opening the door, fortunately when we were stopped.
There was so much more that I didn't photograph: Dan, the food (delicious), the rest of their house, the markets, the traffic, the people (very friendly and kind), the flowers, their ward and the river. You will just have to visit yourself to get the real picture!
Mary and Amy at Wat Pho, the Temple of the Reclining Buddha.
The best drink ever--watermelon smoothie--so delicious!
Abraham is happy to have a break from the heat.
Some things are still the same: goldfish and apple juice.
Towers made from tile at a temple site.
The zoo had a place where you could buy fruit and vegetable to feed the elephants.
Amy was the bravest!
Mary got more courageous when she realized how fun it was.
A pygmy hippopotomus
We arrived just as the tigers came out of their cage--the caretaker squirted them with a hose to make them go out.
A white tiger.
Their apartment is nice (not so spacious as it appears in these photos, though)--EVERYONE wants to touch them!
It has been snowing non stop in Moscow for the last 3 days. This wouldn't be as much of a problem if there was anywhere to plow the roads. As you can tell, all the snow is pushed into the center of the street, so making a left hand turn is done at the peril of getting high centered.

Ahh no seatbelts!
