Just back from our spring break trip to CT and NYC. Great visit, wonderful to see our friends the O’Brien family again. And beautiful sights to see as well…the photo goodness you’ve come to expect from me can be found here. Enjoy!
Pesach began this evening and the Hogbergs were in fine form. Mom provided a beautiful table and delicious festive meal as always. The kids did much of the heavy lifting, helping to decorate with handmade holiday placemats, the seder plate was provided by Noah, the matzoh plate by Josh and we all enjoyed a boisterous, [...]
Updates finally arrive here, in the form of the long-awaited “About…” menu item. For the 5-or-so people who have been loudly requesting this for years, consider your wish granted; you may now start hectoring me about some other feature I’m missing. You have my profound astonished respect at your persistence for this as well. For [...]
My not-entirely-planned experiment in lengthy spacing between blog posting will, mercifully, be ending. Thanks to you long-suffering folks who keep pinging and checking for updates, long beyond any reasonable expectation of satisfaction. To reward you, I’ll point you to new pictures of the kids from this fall, under the usual “Pictures” link. A teaser is [...]
[fa:p:a=72157601583248473,id=1188993489,j=r,s=t,l=p] Some new pictures up in the gallery: Josh’s birthday–a great time at home, with a magician and fun in the yard. Vacation! Down to visit Grammy in mid-August, including a trip to the Wheels O’ Time museum (aka: the “car museum”), swimming, a paddleboat ride, and general enjoyment for all. Various shots of the [...]
It’s February, so it’s birthday time in the Hogberg household–Valli and Noah both enjoying their special days. Check out all the fun on the pictures page.
[fa:p:a=72157594525580646,id=384247477,j=r,s=t,l=i] Hi all: It’s been a very long autumn and winter here, with my father’s illness and passing. I appreciate everyone’s continual re-visits here in the hopes of getting the latest/greatest on the family goings-on. I’ll try my best to make up for lost time and keep everyone current going forward. The short form summary: [...]
More pix up in the pictures section…these detail my morning drive into the office from my hotel. View them and understand why US citizens are “strongly discouraged” from piloting their own cars while visiting India…
17 hours in two planes today. I now know what toothpaste feels like after being squeezed out of it’s tube. Routine in every respect, though, which was great. On the ground around midnight 7/30 local time. Customs went smoothly, luggage took quite awhile (apparently they’re scanning everything coming in.) Hotel ride there just as promised–a [...]
Back at last, after a long layoff. We’ve been having a great spring here at Hogberg Manor–outings to the park, Josh’s last day of preschool {sniff!}, plus a visit to Grammy’s house for her birthday and a side jaunt out to Wildlife Prarie Park, where we hung out where the buffalo roam All the good [...]
