2007 turned out to be a very busy year. Tom started High School this
Fall, and Kari started her Senior Year. As such we spent a
considerable amount of time this summer visiting colleges (Georgetown
University, Princeton, George Washington, etc ....).
Besides the college visits there were many, many other activities
including: seeing Elton John and Bruce Springsteen in concert, a LOT of
bike riding (the highlight again being the Covered Bridge bike ride),
several Yankee and Devils games, some nice Broadway plays (including
"Inherit the Wind" - with Christopher Plummer, and "The Drowsy
Charperone"), some great diving (including a trip to Lake Ontario
in Canada), numerous visits to Six Flags, a LOT of track and
cross-country meets, very good climbing seasons (both rock and ice),
Kari getting a new car, and several trips to the Jersey shore.
Below you can see a shot of Tom down at the shore (this Fall) along
with a picture of Bruce Springsteen and the E-Street band in Madison
Square Garden.

As mentioned, we made it to several Yankee games. Below is a
picture of Derek Jeter and A-Rod (we had seats right behind the dugout
at Camden Yards), and another shot of Tom and Kari in the nose bleed
section of Yankee Stadium.
Next is a picture of one of the wrecks ("The City of Sheboygan") we
dove in Lake Ontario, and a shot Kerry took of Kevin doing a cool climb
called the "Dangler" up at the Gunks (in New York state).
Besides climbing on rocks, Kerry did also manage to get in a couple of
ice climbing trips. Below you can see a shot of a frozen Kerry
during his February ice climbing trip to Daks.
Of course no year would be complete with our Dogs. You can see
Missy-Mutt out in our snowy backyard, carefully listening for any
intruders. Also there is Kari and Missy on one of our many wooded
walks.
Lastly, there is of course our annual Christmas 'toon.
