The Silver Family is unremarkable in most respects:
     One Mom
     One Dad
     One Son
     One Daughter
     One dog
     Three cats
     One aquarium -- which turned out to have three fish … two of which survived one cleaning which has since worn off  … both still remain in water which is now murky and difficult to see through  -- OK … now it is outright green …. And I can still find the big fish, I wonder if he cares….
      7 Automobiles --- running  (if the term "beater" means anything to you) - one is new ….. Which dad intends to keep for himself if he can just keep his daughter out … 
       Living in a comfortable home in Central Florida, the two kids are gone and  now beginning to think of themselves as individuals, separation nearly complete with the son graduating Cum Laude in Computer Science and the daughter in her 3rd year in Public Relations.  Both beginning to have professional lives, Son doing some teaching in a private school for Computer Graphics Design, and Daughter as an intern with the Public Schools.  And now … they are both 21, just need to work on self sufficient--LOLOLOLOL.

Mom and Dad remain at home with the creatures and the mail box full of bills ...

Life moves from day to day … sometimes even a night or two creeps in.  Too much time spent at work, and too much of the rest just keeping up.  Wonder if the rest of the world lives like this.

Mom and Dad and sometimes the kids do find time for a vacation once in a while -- something that always seems like something someone else did as soon as I return home

I like far away and exotic places, and thinking about the world, and its people, some interesting places sometimes find their way onto my pages .......

Roman Coleseum in the Background -- wife had another tourist snap this photo with our camera ............

Trafalgar Square -- London -- this time the kids were along and my son -- only about 15 years old at the time took this shot ......................................

And .... The obligatory photo of two of us in front of the Parthenon … can't go to Greece without it … more photos of Greece if you click HERE
