First stop home.  Its always good to be home and see everyone and most of the time here was spent doing just that.  There were a couple family events including a night of camping at Uncle Bruces bass pond and a gathering at Grandma Jones´s where everyone ooh´d and aw´d over the newest edition of the family Hudson Hertz.  He is a cute little shit, rarely cries and it´s easy to make a big deal of him.  Unlike the Iowans I have the luxury of seeing him every week in Maui and haven´t had to change a diaper yet.

Also there was a visit with Uncle Bill to discuss my up coming trip to Switzerland where we discussed plans to find the elusive castle he was thrown into over 60 years ago.  Exceiting stuff.
