  • Trip East: Part One

    Posted on April 13, 2009 by Dan in friends, growing up, travel.

    The trip we just took home was the longest amount of time we’ve been away from California since we moved out here. So, in our minds, it was a super long time, which meant that we had plenty of time to see everyone we had ever met in our entire lives. Turns out, that means […]

  • Blizzard ’09

    Posted on April 9, 2009 by Dan in travel.

    Icicles of doom. So these are some photos from when we went up to Tahoe with some friends over Valentines Day. It snowed. A LOT. I look ridiculous. It was SO COLD. mmmm sleet. Up the lift. Pretty, yet freezing. Ski run. Notice the abundance of fresh snow. **Coming tomorrow, posts about our crazy whirlwind […]

    Posted on March 16, 2009 by Dan in Cal, friends, stupid people, travel, work.

    So, it’s been awhile, and recently the blog has kind of seemed broken on occasion? As in, you come to the URL and there is nothing there? This has happened to me a few times, not sure if that’s why no one has been leaving us any comment love, but I will push on! Writing […]

  • Las Vegas, part deux

    Posted on March 1, 2009 by Dan in travel.

    So, we went to Vegas earlier this month. I, for one, am not a HUGE fan of Vegas. I think it has it’s benefits – there are some sights to be seen there that can’t be found anywhere else. There is amazing food, and amazing shows and people acting like complete fools, who have 120% […]

    Well, just to catch everyone up (which apparently is necessary my mom complained today that the blog needs updating)… **My grandmother is doing…OK. She was in the hospital a few days ago for some serious nausea and pain after her first round of chemo – bad news. She had an MRI a couple of days […]

  • Two months later…

    Posted on January 23, 2009 by Dan in travel.

    Recap: We love Jack Daniel’s. We spent Thanksgiving in Nashville. The Jack distillery is less than two hours away from there. We visited. It was magical. And onto the photo adventure. So, you arrive, you hop into a tour group, you watch a wonderfully cheesy video about the heritage and history of how Jack is […]

  • Thanksgiving in Nashville, year two

    Posted on November 28, 2008 by Dan in family, friends, travel.

    Well, I’m here with Dan’s family in Nashville for the second year in a row. The people are the same, but everyone is a year older. Dan’s nephews are still adorable and incredibly well behaved, and Dan’s sister-in-law still made a ridiculously delicious Thanksgiving feast. Today was actually a big day – it was the […]

  • Insomnia.

    Posted on November 25, 2008 by Dan in random, travel.

    Well, here I am, a product of a mismanaged sleep schedule, awake at 2 am, Nashville time. Dan and I are here visiting his family for Thanksgiving again – we both got in on Saturday after surprisingly not late or horrendous flights, and I can not sleep. I haven’t been falling asleep much before 3 […]
