Here are some more shots from Easter Island. The beach:




Ovahe beach from a cave in the cliff face. Most beautiful and isolated beach in the world, only me and Kristen there.



Ahu Tongariki, amazing!

From Winter to Spring...

Here are a few more winter shots as the seasons turn from winter to spring. It's nice to see the sun still up after work, isn't it? Elliana feeding some deer during our horse-drawn sleigh ride in Jackson NH.

Tough Weather Skiing

We were up in North Conway NH a couple weekends ago on the annual Masse Winter Outing. We got some wet and nasty snow while skiing on Friday, but Elliana was still out there trying. We had some fun before the elements made it too difficult. Weather was no problem for the heated outdoor pool or a horse drawn sleigh ride, more to follow maybe tomorrow...
