One thing we hope to do much more often now is hike in the woods. We live in Hillsborough, North Carolina, and have found our area to be blessed with several scenic natural trail areas.

Occoneechee Speedway Trail - few new 5/08 photos
Occoneechee Mountain - few new 4/08 photos
Poet's Walk at Ayr Mount - new 3/08 photos
Eno River State Park
Some information on Orange County's history.



Staff Sergeant Keone O'Riordan (on the right) and a pal share some time with the local kids.
He is with the 4th Brigade, 2nd Battalion, 23rd Infantry Division which has just returned after serving a tour in Iraq. For information on how his outfit is doing you can go to Stryker Brigade News. His mother, Bonnie, is Landon's first cousin. Keone is married, has two sons, and has already seen action in Afghanistan.




My uncle, Clyde Whitt, was a gunner on a B-24 based near Wendling, England
(392 BG) during WWII. He was killed over France in June 1944.

Here are links to some sites I have made over the years:

Regarding politics - I don't much like McCain but compared to Obama he is just fine.
