El Valle











We spent a nice weekend enjyoying the cool weather of El Valle with John and Cindy. In addition to eating and drinking very well, we climbed (we think) Cerro Gaital. An easy stroll for everyone but Kellee, who was sore for three days.

Kellee with summer school students











Kellee went with the public affairs section to Penonome, where she gave a little talk to students taking an English immersion summer class. It was a fun diversion, and the kids loved the photos of Altoona-Midway homecoming!

RIP Jim's beach umbrella


Jim B's much loved beach umbrella finally broke for good the last time we went to Las Sirenas at Santa Clara beach for the weekend. He loved it so, and is missing it terribly.

New Years Eve





























We spent New Year's Eve at Pangea -- a great time was had by all!






I am making an effort to document John's increasing love for Jim's head, here for all to see.

Christmas morning







We had a quiet Christmas in Panama. Jim got an original Panama Canal bond, and Kellee got a stocking and yet another promise that Jim will organize a Chiva party for her.

Christmas with Friends - 2009


Robin, our friend hovering over the turkey, invited us to her house for Christmas dinner. We ate way too much and had a great time.

Lasagne


We discovered one of the keys to a tasty lasagne. Grill all the vegetables you put in the lasagne and use to make the sauce.
