I would like to tell you about my family. There are
eight kids in our family. We have never had all eight kids together. In December
of 1988, we had seven of us together in the same place at the same time. My brother
Danny is not in this
picture. Until my return to Florida in September of 1996 and my brother Darrin's
return from Boston in June of 1997, only two kids were in the state of Florida.
My oldest brother Danny was living in Lakeland and my youngest sister Denise was
living in Ruskin. Doreen lives in Oregon. Lori lives in North Carolina.
Dana is now living in Boston and
Doug is living in Chicago.
David and Linda Dawley were proud to announce
a new edition to our family, Our Niece
Elizabeth Maralena Short-Nieves.
She was born at 5:47 p.m. on October 20,1997.
She was 9 pounds 14 ounces, 20 1/4 inches

One of the things I got for
my parents on their 25th Anniersary was an 25th Anniversary
Clock.

Here is the sign I made for
them. We had it lit at night. It turned out good.

BEFORE

I visited the NASCAR Silicon Motor Speedway
at the Galleria in Dallas, TX.
Here I am in the pre-race instruction
area before and after my race at the Speedway.
The Speedway has a dozen "cars".
Each one has a full scale body painted up like Winston Cup cars.
