Find contentAbout Me
Married for 33 years, 3 great kids - all grown - a son living in Lewisville and working for a 'local Dallas airline', a daughter in Lake Worth and in her last year of studies to be a high school math teacher, and a son in Taiwan on a scholarship at NTU to finish his PhD in Physics.
We have a house in Haslet, but love DTFW, so plan to visit as often as possible!
In my spare time, I play and record my own music - about 80 pieces in the past couple years - half covers and half originals. I've got a current accumulation of 11 guitars and a bass, as well as a digital piano and the dreaded drum machine (actually quite surprised and happy with the sound and quality!).
Another obsession of mine is photography, which I share from time to time!

I like that last one - of course I'm partial to reflections!
In Topic: Temporary outdoor ice skating rink - Sundance Plaza or Water Gardens

I've often thought that the center section of the Water Gardens should be frozen over in the winter for skating (not necessarily hockey dimensions), and that it should also be used when the weather is nice for local talent to come out and play some music. The whole Garden seems like an unused waste most of the time.

Thanks John, I appreciate that. Hopefully we'll still make the occasional journey downtown (we'll only be 20 miles away), but I know we didn't visit as often as I would have liked before we actually made the move to the T&P.
Good news to John S if you see this - I'll have a relatively sound-proof room, and have recently acquired a half-stack with four 12" x 100W Clarion speakers, so I'll be ready to crank it up! I'll also be replacing the drums I sold when we moved downtown...

Is there still a way to limit the number of posts that show up on a page? I used to have it set to 5 so I didn't have to wait so long for all the photos to load, but now it seems to go back many, many posts and takes forever to look at any new posts on my Clunk-O-Matic 5000 computer...

Love the Vandervoorts sign - I've seen it on south Main, but never made it there on foot to take a picture. We're moving back to the 'country' this weekend, so my (easy) photo ops around Downtown will sadly be a thing of the past.
