god bless the steur family, now experiencing what the bell family experienced last year . dear dear uncle walt passed away after being sick for a while in New York. many great memories and will be sorely missed. but he is having coffee and dad is having a manhattten right about now together along with other family members having a grand ol time. god bless you aunt betty and thank god for your neighbors taking care of you . be strong. one of my favorite memories is going to a family occasion i think it was the family reunion and we were unpacking, we took a short cut and passed uncle walt our luggage through our window on the first floor of the hotel. then he passed me his cowboy hat and i wore it. i looked great if i do say so myself. and i dont' remember this but aunt betty told me this year that i wasnt talking much very few words, and i went to town with uncle walt he said to me bump bump bump when we went over a bump and apparently i repeated it. that was the most prescious sounds he had ever heard me say aunt betty said. i will try to post a picture. soon. love to all steurs. katie

this is the picture i wanted seaqulls in flight. the pictures come in thumbnail and i am not sure how to blow it up. i will learn the waves were big for the state park and i took the dolphins pictures behind the crashing wave but that looks neat just for the breaking wave. if you look close the dolphin is near the top of the picture.

this is not the picture but i keep getting it. i will hopefully post them in flight. katie


this is what i happened upon last week at cape henlopen state park. my favorite resting place. i just happened to look down at the right time i was a half of step away from stepping on it. hope i dont' see one tommorro. ouch. i have never seen one this big before. it was neat to stare at it and examine the middle. love you all katie
