Welcome to my Website.
What you see here is my newest version of Kraneburg.com, which has been in existence since 1997. The site has been converted from HTML to PHP. Other things you will find on this page are straight links to pictures of our trips to the Sierra Nevada, information on our Grand Cherokee Jeep Modifications, my Doodle Art, links to various Blogs and News. Last but not least, windsurfing, my favorite sport. I believe I am now pretty much done with the redo of the site and any feedback on any errors is welcome.

About our Trips
Since we are lucky enough to live only a few hours away from the Sierra Nevada, my girlfriend and myself try to take full advantage of camping there during the summer. It has phenomenal scenery and lots of places to get lost in without seeing another person. You can see this for yourself by checking out our trip pictures.

About Windsurfing
I mostly sail at Coyote Point Park (well used to) in San Mateo. There is also 3rd Ave, but it gets to crowded and the parking isn't that great. Coyote has parking and a Windsurf Shop right on the water. Windsurfing in the Bay Area is just the best.

About our Jeep
In 2002 we were invited to go with our friends on a Death Valley trip for Thanksgiving. It soon became apparent that even though it was a Jeep, we had serious limitations on were we could go and what we could explore. And so the building of the beast began. We wanted to see more, go to more isolated places and so forth. We didn't purchase the Jeep so that if we plowed into a small VW bug, we wouldn't be hurt and crush the bug (no pun intended). We bought it because we camp and love the outdoors, period. It is used for what it was built for. We do not own a 6000 pound, 20 inch chrome wheels, gas guzzling soccer mom car because of safety... you get the idea.

My Doodle Art
These I do from time to time, it takes me about six months to finish one. If you think these doodles are a reflection of my brain and I am a loon, knock yourself out. I want to see you do one. For those of you who like them and print them for yourselves. Enjoy. If you do post them on your site as I know many of you doodle nuts do, please give me credit. I hate it when I find them on the web and no credit is given. Thanks.

About Politics
I get lots of email in regards to my blogs (currently under suspension... I am looking for work). Mostly hatemail from right wingers. First, I am neither republican nor Democrat. Just a guy with common sense, who knows when someone is pulling the wool over my eyes. I am neither a Christian, a Jew, or a Muslim. I stay out of it. BUT don't put your "moral values" on me. As far as I am concerned. I am going to the right place. And no, I do not vote for something or someone, because some guy on Sundays tells me how to vote.... you get the picture
