Windsurfing on Nantucket

Last month, we took a 10 day vacation to visit Nantucket to see some great films in the Nantucket Film Festival. This was our first visit to the island in a few years. Real Estate prices and restaurant charges have continued to sky rocket. We were very surprised to find that our friend, John Arno, has closed Vincent's restaurant and leased out the space to an upscale restaurant. Vincent's was always one of the more affordable restaurants on the island. However, The Atlantic Cafe still excellent, affordable food including their World renowned Nachos Deluxe. KDB made great progress in her windsurfing with some lessons from her dad.

KDB won awards at the 2006 High School Open Figure Skating Competition

At this year's High School Open Figure Skating Competition, KDB and her school did well. KDB earned first place in Preliminary Compulsory Moves. Her school, Princeton Day School, won first prize overall. A commercial photographer took photos at the Open; I'll point out KDB on the photogapher's site. On this page, there are 5 photos of KDB in her light pink dress, beginning in row 7. In this team photo, KDB is second from the right in the rear.

Budelis Family Speakers

Last week, by coincidence, two of us gave presentations at the Princeton Public Library. On Tuesday, Joe gave a presentation on
VoIP phone service: Demystifying VoIP. He gave the audience info to assist them in choosing the best VoIP service for their situation.

Then, on Friday, KDB gave background info on her photos shown at the library. One of her photos, that has won awards in other shows, is a digital montage of a rock show. Other award winning photos that she displayed at the library are photos that she took during her trip to India last year. KDB spoke of how, on this trip, she learned to move beyond her shyness to be able to take close-up photos of people she had never met before.
