2010 was another busy, happy year. Diane is busy with her writing and recently won three awards in the Oklahoma City Writers annual competition, including their top award. She is working on her second novel, while editing her first and pursuing avenues for publication. She and a friend from Dallas are starting a school consulting business. I continue to work full time, commuting weekly to Houston as before.
We had two great trips this year. In April we attended an architects’ conference in Istanbul (see us at the entrance to the Grand Bazaar in Istanbul) followed by visits to Ephesus and Cappadocia in Central Turkey. Added to the exotic trip was a visit to Qatar to find a flight home around the ash cloud.
In July clients of mine loaned us their new Canadian vacation home. The home is in Canmore just south of the Banff National Park. The home looks over a golf course and beyond at the peaks of the Canadian Rockies. With four bedrooms, five and a half baths, plus four bunk beds it seemed designed for our family which included Diane’s sister Kathy. Photos show our four grandchildren and the whole family on one of several strenuous hikes. Everyone voted it the best of the family vacations.
