Lots of new pictures have made it up to our Yahoo Photos site recently:

• 2005.03-04-05 (from CJL’s camera): as you might guess from the title, pictures from Cheris’ camera including Uncle Tom & Aunt Regina’s Easter Sunday visit (think good safe thoughts for Tom, who’s back in Afghanistan) and Dave & Michele’s visit.
• 2005.04-05 more April/May (Rob’s camera): again, the title is pretty much self-explanatory!
• 2005.05.05 - Violet’s nursery: in a very productive mid-week visit early this month, Granny Annie went to town on Violet’s nursery, painting the room, assembling the crib, and moving all the other furniture in while I was out at work and Cheris was taking care of the little girl (thanks, Ann!). She loves it and sleeps like a, well, a baby.

Check ‘em out. In other interesting news: my band, Out of the Blue, is on a bill with Arlo Guthrie! We can’t really call it an opening slot, since we’re not technically even on the same stage, and we’re playing at 1:50 pm as part of an all-day event — Arlo’s at 9 pm — but it’s an honor and a privilege nonetheless. I saw Arlo once years ago in New York City and he is one charismatic and hilarious fellow once he straps on a guitar and steps behind a microphone.
