4.5 days of solid driving and we have arrived in DC. We are still holed up at a Super 8 – but so far so good. I’ve been working from the hotel, and Erin heads to her first day Monday morning. We are also doing other exciting things like making trips to DMV and organizing …
We spent our last three days in London. Although we both prefer the rolling hills and peace of the north – this was Erin’s first trip to England, so seeing the sites of London was a must! Get ready for a marathon post, and a photo dump!! Tuesday we got in from the north in …
Finally!! I am getting around to blogging. Most of you know the craziness/excitement that has been the last week. But, as soon as I can wrap up our England posts, I will get our new home posted, and give you an update on my work plans! But…now, back to the English Lakes! 🙂 Sunday we …
Finally! I’m finally getting around to finishing our England trip! After getting back I got a cold/flu that had me really sick for couple of days – but has continued to drag on through this week. So I just haven’t had the energy to get to blogging. But – enough complaining! Back to the task …
We got back late last night from spending the weekend in Santa Rosa for Erin’s cousin Gena’s wedding. But, first, we spent Saturday afternoon wine tasting (I know, you’re shocked). We clean up nice! And so do they… 🙂 For those of you who don’t know (so, anyone not related to Erin…) Gena and Andy …
This weekend was a huge improvement from last. Erin and I only have one day a week off together, and so we like to get the most out of it as possible! Yesterday we started out the day going to a luncheon for a women’s group we’ve been a part of this past year, and …
Finally! Here are some pictures from the lunch we had at my grandma’s last weekend. It was the first time my Uncles Andrew and Rico met Rogan, and also the first time Rogan made the trek from Bothell to Burien for a gathering at my grandma’s house. My grandma’s has always been a very comforting …
Erin and I only have one day a week off together, and so we usually try and get out and do something every Saturday. This past weekend we went to the Olive Festival in Paso Robles. Paso is about two hours south of Monterey, and is another fantastic wine region in CA. Apparently, they also grow olives! …
Two weekends ago, Erin and I headed to the Garlic Festival! Erin had been a few years back, but I had to work, and so this was my first time. The sun was out – it was hot, and there was a lot of garlic! We went with a couple we met a few months ago, and …
We spent our last day in Alaska in the old mining town of Skagway. While the gold rush in Alaska was short lived, this town remains true to its history. Our first stop was a cemetery, dating back to the late 1800’s when the gold rush was in full swing. There were, sadly, a lot …
