Team Redundancy Team

Aaron’s band, “Team Redundancy Team”, played in downtown Portland at the Satyricon this week!

Band members are friends from Newberg High School.

Whoa! Loud? Yes—and some very cool original music!

Fine guitar work, Aaron.

This was actually taken before the concert. Laine, on the left is the bass player.

Bridge Pedal 2008

What a fun day! This year’s Bridge Pedal went WAY smoother than last year! (More details here.)

Here we are on the top of the Fremont Bridge. The highlight for me on this ride was just being with the family and especially that Deanne came! I thought after my first Bridge Pedal that someday it’d be fun if Deanne came too—and this year she did!

That’s Austin and Deanne on the left, and Alison on the right, coming down off the Marquam Bridge.

This is roughly the same area that we got stopped last year. Notice the difference!

I spotted Rick Bauman, the event director, near the finish line, so I went over and thanked him and told him I appreciated all of his efforts. After complaining last year I had to let him know I felt this year was a great success. He told me I ought to try to get my name in the paper this year too, but i sure don’t plan to : )

Austin—15 and growing!

Here’s Austin on his recent 15th birthday, with three cousins and four friends.

He’s growing up into a real neat guy… even I look up to him! (That’s no joke!)

(Thanks to my Mom for sending me the picture!)
