February 22nd is Ry Nebeker's birthday. Ry has been gone for 3 years now - we miss him still. He was pretty much always "larger than life" and so his absence seems to stand out.
In 1990 and 1992, we camped in Ashland OR with the Nebekers - it was a lot of fun - we still share the memories.
Thankfully his paintings and prints are all over our house, so he's always with us!
