Well, I planned to have more pictures and information up here, but I am having trouble downloading pictures from our camera into iPhoto. I finally figured out today that is a problem with the memory card in our camera. I am trying to figure out an alternative way to get the pictures downloaded. There are some good ones on there, so I hope to have that finished pretty soon.
In the meantime, things are going pretty good here in Alaska for the Frick Jr family. Jessica and I are on summer vacation and we are enjoying the time spent with the kids and our 2 dogs, Nudge and Martha. Martha is our new dachshund puppy.
I also added a couple things to the left hand margin of the blog. I added a couple of boxes that talks about what Jessica and I are currently reading. I had something similar on the site for my classes, and I like to think that people may be interested in reading things that Jessica and I are reading.
I am also debating shutting down my hockey blog because I don't think that anyone out there reads it or cares in the least what I have to say about hockey. If that is the case, then I will move some of the information over to this website.
But anyway, thanks for reading and I hope to post more soon!

Relentless by Dean Koontz
Bestselling novelist Cullen "Cubby" Greenwich is a lucky man and he knows it. He makes a handsome living doing what he enjoys. His wife, Penny, a children's book author and illustrator, is the love of his life. Together, they have a brilliant six-year-old, Milo, affectionaly dubbed "Spooky," and a non-collie named Lassie, who's all but part of the family.
So Cubby knows he shouldn't let one bad review of his otherwise triumphant new book get to him-even if it does appear in the nation's premier newspaper and is penned by the much-feared, seldom-seen critic Shearman Waxx. Cubby knows that the best thing to do is ignore the gratuitously vicious, insulting, and inaccurate comments. Penny knows it; even little Milo knows it. If Lassie could talk, she'd tell Cubby to ignore them, too.
Ignore Shearman Waxx and his poison pen is just what Cubby intends to do. Until he happens to learn where the great man is taking his lunch. Cubby just wants to get a look at the mysterious recluse whose mere opinion can make or break a career-or a life.
But Shearman Waxx isn't what Cubby expects, and neither is the escalating terror that follows what seemed to be an innocent encounter. For Waxx gives criticism; he doesn't take it. He has ways of dealing with those who cross him that Cubby is only beginning to fathom. Soon Cubby finds himself in a desperate struggle with a relentless sociopath, facing an inexorable assault on far more than his life.
Fearless, funny, utterly compelling, Relentless is Dean Koontz at his riveting best, an unforgettable tale of the fragile bonds that hold together all that we most cherish-and of those who would tear those bonds assunder.
