Greg and Vivi Go to India



This is Greg's attempt to create a neat little spot with our pictures for friends and all to see. Why? Because Vivi and I returned from India recently and we had such an amazing trip that I wanted to find a medium to share. So here goes......

Thanks to our brother-in-law webmaster Mike McFadden of http://www.mcfaddenplace.com/ fame, we have posted our favorite India pictures on http://www.flickr.com/. So, without further ado, click here to view our India pics, and enjoy! (Hint, click on the link, then click "View as a slideshow".)

Big Island 2007


As if Alaska in August wasn't enough, the Porter Family headed to Big Island of Hawaii with our good friends Scott, Tracy, Zayne and Allegra Gohl. As the pictures show, we had a fantastic time. What is not seen here are the shots of Vivi's 450# blue marlin, which hopefully get posted some time in the near future...

Porters in Alaska!



In August 2007 we traveled Alaska by train, with stops in Seattle to visit Vivi's folks John and Kay. Grace was a wonderful traveler and our lifelong goal of finding a moose was fulfilled! Too bad it was too dark for photographic evidence.

Witch Creek Fire



Who remembers that harrowing week in October 2007 when much of San Diego County was endangered by the most damaging series of fires in County history? Here are a few photos from our yard, our neighborhood, and from Carlsbad High School where over 300 evacuees stayed and volunteers established a cache of supplies that reflected an incredible community spirit.
