I've got a mix of really outstanding photos my wife has taken over the years of vacation, some photos of the kids, and a couple of maps, all of which rotate every 5 minutes or so.

Here are a few of the favorites


Sunset over VA Beach


Monterey Bay - used to bike out here with my wife


Camping out at Hanging Rock.  That's Bayonet Jr and a friend looking over the edge


Bayonet Jr at a football game.  Look at the jumbotron in the background


Jedburgh Abbey in Scotland, taken on our honeymoon.  My wife shot this one in B&W


Bayonet Jr playing soccer; he's the goalie


Flags over Ft Sumter, after being raised by the Cub Scouts on our trip there in the Fall of 09.  Bayonet Jr helped raise the one on the far right.

I love Epcot. I'd hang there the entire time if I had my way.

Not all those who wander are lost;

Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

SCDJ's pic is actually very similar to what my house looks like! Mine is a little less maintained :/
