What a great sign-in name for the Stevens Family Blog! Anyone remember diving and quickly lying down in the back of the old blue truck parked on the drive-way? Such fond memories!
Thanks, Jane, for setting up the Stevens Family Blog--and for teaching me how to use it. I so enjoy reading the fun, interesting and informative postings and look forward to more.
Much love to all of you on this absolutely gorgeous, sunny, clear day in Salt Lake City.

Brooke Michael Mary and Sarah go to bonnaroo music fest!

Stevens kids at Bonnaroo in Manchester, TN! 3 days of no showers and music all day.

Civil War Bike Tour: The Navy was very important.

Nick and I went on an interesting bike tour with a park ranger in DC. The focus was on the maritime battles. We went to several monuments around DC and learned about John Ericsson (Inventor of the screw propellor and the iron-clad Monitor), Admiral Farragut (Led Union forces in New Orleans and Mobile Alabama), Raphael Semmes (Commander of the Confederate ship Alabama), and Captain John Winslow ( Captain of the Kearsarge, who defeated Semmes off the coast of France).

The take away message was that the Navy was very important in the Civil War and is under appreciated today for what they did.

Hey Jane, Thanks for moving us into the 21st century !

Happy birthday to Calvin

Here's a photo from memorial day in Kanosh. Happy birthday (yesterday) to Calvin--you made it to double digits! We hope you have a good year ahead.
