Scott TV Webcams

Need a Hobby
Grab a glimpse of what we do for fun. No more whale explosions for this crew. Model rockets, fishing and target shoots consume what free time is left after hours of bad TV shows. Interesting leisure possibilities surface with this hobby combo.
Are You a SWAT?
Want to trace your roots back to Poland (or Austria)? Maybe you'd like to share a family moment. Perhaps you're trying to return the power tools you borrowed last year. The Swatkowski family weblog and message center is back. Take a few seconds and let us know what you've been up to lately.
Desert Scotts Family Update
Dave landed himself a government job. Not the slacking, goof off, cake walk, stereotypical government job.
Somehow he found a stressful, lots of hours, high pressure and a heart surgery, government job. He's looking forward to mastering his new gig with the network operations team for the city.
Overall life is good and optimism rules.
Lauren is well on her way to becoming a young adult. She and Liz frequently have long girls only discussions.
Lou is now a graduate. She is totally taking advantage of a sleepy teenage summer before high school. Who can argue with that.
In preparation for marching band she plays flute and piccolo. She still finds time to go fishing with the old man on occasion.
Adam is a college man this year. He's taken several steps towards independence. And a step or two back.
Fortunately, Adam is on the right track. Our eldest is on his way to a degree and is gainfully employed. If he can keep his girlfriend happy he's got it made.
Liz is constantly on the run. A gig with the local utility company gives her a chance to get yelled at by customers in English and Spanish.
Household projects consume enough leisure time to make it unleisurely. She is truly the glue that holds this family together, and our hero. Not to worry though, an hour or two playing Zombie Ninja ProAm helps her decompress when needed.
Lloyd the dog has passed on to a better place. His last years with us were divided between extreme relaxing, power napping, stretching, yawning and the occasional feline harassment. Its good to know all dogs go to heaven as he surely deserves to be there.
