When Jim's friend Lilah said: "Jim, you sure do make some cute kids!" - Jim responded by emailing Lilah this lovely picture of Marina, taken at Idaho's Mesa Falls. Cute kid, eh? ;)
Here, a rare shot into a girl's slumber party. Notice all the sodas. the Hershey's candybars, the Lay's chips ... and any other product endorsements I could possibly give ...
Here, on a bright, sunny day at Belfair State Park, Marina thinks that no one is looking and she makes her big break to freedom. She didn't get far, the soggy diaper slowed her considerably.
Marina loved to play with the blocks on the front deck of the rental cottage on Yukon Drive in Port Orchard, Wash. Here, she's proud of her latest - tallest - structure!
When Marina graduated from sixth grade, Jim took her out for dinner at Silverdale's Silvery City Brewery. It was a $75 meal for two, but well worth it. You can see the happiness in Rina's face.
Before her surgery on March 14, 2004, Rina is HUNGRY! She had a pin put into her hip by orthopaedic surgeon Don Bliss of Port Orchard. Bliss also rebuilt my right leg and right arm after a series of brutal accidents. Marina later recovered and the pin has been removed!
Looking much like a demon-child, Marina enjoys camping out in a tent in the back yard. Night vision optical equipment makes for some interesting photos, to be sure.
This is Seattle's Safeco Field. If you've never been there, you've just got to ... wait a sec. Okay, Marina! I see you down in the bottom of the picture. You silly goose!
Marina wanted a guitar for Christmas and that's exactly what she got from her daddy, but not until the following year. Here, she practices with JIm's Fender 12-string.
