connecting through video

I'm talking with my dad right now on Skype right now. It's a really cool program! We're video conferencing. So even though he's in Vegas, he seems not so far away. It's really nice, now that they live 20 hours away. It's good for them to see the kids, and nice for them to just see our faces. And same for us! I prefer this to chat now most of the time, if available and I'm not busy. And also to phone too. It's lovely.
