Halloween, 2010

A shot of our front yard for Halloween, 2010.

It is hard to tell, but that is a headless pirate, and two giant spiders way in the back on the lawn.

Shelob, eat your heart out!

Homeland Security did not stop this person from visiting

Heather's friend from High School, Robert came to visit us the day after Christmas, giving us a nice present for that day. We went to eat at Foster's right across the street from Salinas High School, the mortal enemy of every adult there. Here are Lizzy and Nicholas next to this giant Nutcracker at Foster's. I think they liked that it was so darn large.

Then we went to downtown Salinas and went to an Antiques Mall. We bought yet another Christmas ornament.


Afterwards, we went to the National Steinbeck Center where Robert was looking a present for a friend who is a Steinbeck fan, but we were too cheap to actually pay to go into the museum dedicated to our most famous Son. I told everyone to pose, and got the standard group photo. Then I told everyone to act crazy, and Ramon actually start to choke our guest! Heather does the standard Diva thing and looks like she is singing. Me? My soul became even smaller and blacker. However, they did have this cool shirt in the museum gift shop.


Overall, we highly recommend going to the National Steinbeck Center. Let us know what it is like, and maybe someday we ourselves will go.

Thanks for visiting us all the way from Los Angeles, Robert, and we hope to see you soon again! Go Dodgers!

Kramer Sighting of the Week!: November 10th, 2009

Those wacky, wandering Kramers are at it again!

This time they were sighted by our son, Ramon, who had his trusty camera out, and caught what we believe is a sighting of their van, further proof that they did not really move away.

Here is the evidence....

It was indeed a white van, and it was a rather large one at that. It was spotted Salinas, right near the Pro-life vigils that they used to frequent as well. It was a Ford Make, so there were plenty of factors on our side.

BELIEVABILITY RATING: 74% according to Ramon.
Reasons: Again, rather low. We know what the Kramer's phone number is, and it is not what is painted on the side of this van. The number on the side of this van, went to some Police Athletic league, which strangely enough, is also along the entire side of the van. One would think they would know to put the correct phone number on the side of their own van. Their wheels did not match what we know the Kramer van to have, either. The website on the side of this van also does not go to the Kramer Family website.

What the Kramers should do is put the correct phone number and website address on the side of their van. This would greatly increase the believability rating.

Tune in agian next week for another edition of....

Kramer Sighting! (insert fading echo-y sound effect here).
