The Willimers in America

Early Days in the U.S.A. - April 2001

I'm going to gradually move all of our early diary pages to this new site. Read about our arrival in the U.S. in April 2001 or indeed events like moving day and the Skilman Rodeo during our first summer.

Boys Weekend

Linda is in the U.K. this weekend, so Thomas and I are in the middle of the longest 'boys weekend' imaginable. She left on Wednesday evening amidst the Thanksgiving travellers. We calculated that I could look after Thomas for 5 nights with only one vacation day, but forgot to calculate how long we would spend on the NJ Turnpike on our way to Newark Airport.

Anyway, we've been ice skating, bowling, mini-golfing, enjoyed The Spongebob Squarepants Movie and spent too much on Lego. Conversely, we've only been to Burger King once and eaten at least one fruit and one vegetable every day so we must be doing something right....

A(nother) New Beginning...

Yet another try at making a presence in the online world...let's see how this one goes !
