We flew back to St. Louis last weekend to meet with a few people at work about jobs and to look for a house. Timing seems to be everything, a position came up the morning I was in at work looking for a job and it seems like a good match. They’ve already […]

Well, we’ve been in Maryland for almost a year now. I’ve started working with my management to find a job back in St. Louis. As much as I love working out here, I hate living here. I’ve been offered a somewhat permanent position out here if we wanted to stay, but that’s […]

Well, it was time to upgrade to the latest version of Wordpress and that means it’s time for a new theme. I’m still tweaking this one just a bit, but so far I quite like it. And I was able to put one of my own photos up on the top for the header. […]

Well, the trip out to Aruba was wonderful. Did some wonderful diving, drove across the entire island toured much of the desert side on ATVs. Photos are posted in the gallery.

Well, we’ve been in Maryland for 5 months now, we’ve had our houe on the market for 9 months and under contract for the past few weeks. We’ve had to drop the price $15,000 from what we originally asked and $10,000 from what we reasonably expected. We expected to close last Wednesday, the […]

Christmas photos - my parents arranged for my uncle, my cousin’s wife and her two kids to take a balloon ride the day after Christmas. The weather and fuel tanks permitted Mica and I to get in for a ride too, so here’s the pictures.

Just got back from vacation. Plenty to write about, if I get a chance. For now though, here’s the photos.

Well, Monica has been sick for the past 10 days or so, her parents were here last weekend and they were slightly sick, and I’m fianlly catching up with it.
Still, we did have a lot of fun last weekend. Finally made it to the Maryland Rennaisance Festival and up to DC. […]

Bloody hell, it’s been a while since I wrote here. I’m in my fourth meeting of the morning now though and it’s just a telecon, so I have a little bit of time to write.
So yeah, we’re getting settled into Maryland. Maybe a little too settled, we’re talking to some people […]
