Keith's Travel

In September of 2009, David was scheduled to speak in two conferences: one in Tel Aviv and one in Berlin. He asked me if I wanted to join him and I responded with jumping up and down shouting "ISRAEL ISRAEL ISRAEL!".... go on »

I'm writing this from Israel. Once again, Israel has totally knocked my socks off, but in an entirely different way. When I was here before I was primarily struck by all the religious sites. This time, I'm struck more with the people. Israelis generally have the reputation of being loud and pushy people. Yes, that's true.... go on »

So...I was just in Ithaca. But Mom flew out pretty much right after I left to help take care of Lorenz. It would have been a shame that Mom had traveled all that way and we wouldn't have been able to see each other - so I packed a bag and drove to Ithaca again. At least this time I knew the scenic road to take. And since David wasn't with me this time, I could crank up the music and shout/sing to my heart's content.... go on »

I posted my photos from my first trip to Ithaca.

There are a lot of pictures of taking Lorenz out on his tricycle. Then photos of his day care - Namaste Montessori. And finally, pictures form a trip that David, Sis and I took to Lucifer Falls.... go on »

David and I drove to Ithaca, NY on Monday to help Sis and Lorenz move in. They had not even been here 24 hours by the time we arrived, so it was a chance to catch the two of them before they had settled in. Sis still had a few large pieces of luggage in the car and could not figure out how to get the orange U-Haul straps off the car, so almost immediately after hugs and hellos, we went to work.... go on »

The past two years, I've rented a place on Fire Island for a week - specifically, in Cherry Grove. Previously, I had taken the pups out, got a 2 bedroom unit, and attempted to get work or writing done.... go on »

On recent trip to Yuba City, CA, I took some time to take photos of Aunt Beth's garden and greenhouse. I should say - take photos of a small fraction of her garden and greenhouse. There are lots of vegetables, herbs, and fruit trees there - unfortunately, I was there a bit early in the season before the plants had a chance to get going. I was still able to get some good shots.... go on »

In June 2008, Mom, Dad, Sis, Lorenz, and little old me rendezvoused in Yuba City. The event that brought us there was the wedding of my cousin, Kellie Everett (Parke's daughter). It gave us a chance to visit Buck's Lake, where Parke has a cabin that's been in the family for decades, hang out in Yuba City, visit Uncle Scott, and have a good ole Everett time.

You will notice that Aunt Catherine is in more than her fair share of photos. That's because she's a ham. Plus, she's photogenic.

Enjoy the photos.

And now for the big event: Kellie & Paul's Wedding!

The big debate leading up to the wedding was "Who's Wearing a Tie?". Well, shockingly few men wore a tie. Or not so shocking, considering the Everetts. I was one of the few wearing a tie. I had a nice linen suit for summer events, so I figured it would be silly not to wear it to an event in Yuba City. And I wasn't going to schlep a suit all the way to California and not wear the whole enchilada.... go on »

On the way out to Lovey's, Scott drove us by the Sutter County cemetery and pointed out that our birth father and grandparents are buried there. After lunch, both Sis and I wanted to drive back and see Keith Sr's grave. I had never seen it and Sis had only been when she was very young.... go on »
