What happened this week ...

Danae and I went to Georgia to visit Damon, Clair and Cambria. We met Mom and Dad Cann there for Cambria's 1st birthday and to go to Stone Mountain (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stone_Mountain). We did a lot of things and had a lot of fun together.

One of the coolest things we got to see was a relic museum with a lot of "old" things like cars, an old juke box, old flicker movies, bicycles, etc.

Love,
Jerry & Danae
