KingsQuarry

Welcome

You've reached the Doolittle/Osburn family web site for Jeff, JoEllen, and Joshua on the internet.

Joshua is currently taking a break from soccer (North Meck Soccer Club) but enjoying his Olympic Style swim lessons at the Huntersville Family Fitness & Aquatics and preparing for 2nd grade at Cannon School.

Jeff and JoEllen are both busy with their careers, Joshua, and as time permits, hobbies.  Some of our hobbies include:  cycling, photography (photo album & gallery), weather, computers, and general arts & crafts which we might find interesting (at this moment:  photographs transferred to tile).

For a few friends and family this site will hopefully be a destination to stay in contact.  But, we understand for most it will be a bunch of worthless yet maybe for a moment interesting web pages.

We're happy you've found our little space on the internet and invite you to look around.

Site History

First and foremost, let me explain the domain name.  When we originally were attempting to select a domain name in 1999 we couldn't find a single word domain name we liked.  So we decided to get a little creative and basically used words which were selected from one of JoEllen's favorite authors and a place:  Stephen King and Quarry Farm (aka; Mark Twain's home in Elmira, New York).  The 's' was added between the two words simply so it sounded better when said aloud.  You might guess, and rightfully so that JoEllen loves reading (King, Twain, and many others) and we do have a lot of Mark Twain items around the house.

We've had a few family/personal web sites in the past (CompuServe, GeoCities, etc.) but KingsQuarry has been our domain name and hosted our family web site in various forms since 1999. 

Jeff, JoEllen, and Joshua.
