| 24th October 2007 Mary Askins | Ireland trip - From: England & Ireland Loved seeing your pictures as they bring back memories of when Martha Lou and I were there. If I hadn't been so old when Ed died I would have moved to Ireland. By the way, I am having the family Thanksgiving dinner so why don't you both just hop over here" Love, Aunt Mary |
| 23rd October 2007 Debi Black | Hi - From: England & Ireland Hi Joe! Really enjoy reading of your adventures. Kim took me to London for a weekend a couple of years ago. It is really an interesting city. If you go back, be sure to go on the Eye of London. It was one of my favorites. You are right, it is really expensive in London. But, it was once in a lifetime. Looking forward to your next adventure |
| 23rd October 2007 Mom | You're showing promise as writer for Cliff Notes! - From: England & Ireland Joe, so excited to read your posting even if it is a bit abbreviated. Ireland looks lovely. Sure do miss you. Hope to see you both soon. Love, Mom |
| 20th September 2007 Aunt Mo | Yanan stairs are too narrow for me - From: Summer Trip Read it quickly this time, I'll go slower next I pull this one up. Can't wait to meet Erin and Artemis; in that order. Finally saw Betty after over a year. A year is too long to not see your children. I don't think you need to kiss the Blarney 'stone' I think it kissed you when you were born. I'm trying like 'heck' to be able to visit Dave in Argentina, slim odds but I'm trying. Saw Sara briefly couple days ago. Life is good. Keep writing. Love Aunt Mo |
| 26th August 2007 Kempa | How you livin'? - From: Summer Trip Good to see you're back in the swing of things on your blog, Joe. Have fun in Ireland and kiss the Blarney rock, er, whatever. |
| 11th August 2007 Mom | So nice to hear from you - From: Summer Trip It sounds like it has been quite an adventure for both of you. I'm glad you're back home safe and sound -- glad Artemis made it back too! I was so excited to hear about your plans. Hope you find good things in Thailand. Love to you and Erin (and Artemis). Look forward to seeing photos and a blog from your time in Thailand and Ireland. |

| 20th September 2006 Aunt Lori | We miss you! - From: First Week of Classes Sam was not that impressed with Artimus, he wanted to see the pictures of your spider bite.... But, on the upside, he's still thinking of you! Ron, Sam, and I are on our way back to Florida in the am. Van is nearly packed! It's 40 degrees in Antioch... Oh, my God! I don't have clothes warm enough to keep me here! Sam doesn't want to go. He likes it here. That's the problem with being young. No control over the decisions made for you!!! Good luck with your classes. Give Erin a hug for us. We love you. Can't wait to see you. It's going to be a long winter without you. Love, A. Lori |
| 17th September 2006 Mom | Appetizer - From: First Week of Classes Hello Joe (and Erin), Sounds like you're settling in. It was fun to read about your classes. Artemis is cute but appetizer might have been a more appropriate name. It kind of looks like a Pekinese. Keep posting the comments -- it's fun to read them and good to know that all is well. Love, Mom |
| 13th September 2006 Mom | What a cute apartment! - From: Getting Set up Joe, it was so much fun to see the photos. Your apartment looks darling and the street outside your place looks very clean. Keep posting those photos I love to see them and look forward to hearing about your classes. Love Mom |
| 12th September 2006 Aunt Lori | Glad to see a new entry! - From: Getting Set up Love the update, and the pictures. Find someone to take a picture of you AND Erin! Sam and I went to Avon/Bloomington this last weekend. Called Kala, but I think she was out of town. Everyone we spoke with asked about you. We love you! A. Lori |
| 11th September 2006 Kate | - From: Getting Set up Oo, it looks so cute: Your little apartment. Hope the first day of classes went well. I'm excited to hear about it. Have fun. |

| 22nd August 2006 Mom | Very Cool - From: The Trip to China Joe, this is a terrific idea and I think (of course, I'm your Mom and probably biased) that this will be a really fun way to "share" in your adventure. It will also be a terrific memory book for your old age (and grandkids!). Please keep it going -- I look forward to reading more and seeing your photos. Love, Mom |
