Bed and Breakfast Spa Austin

Five weeks, 8 major cities, four continents, 4 radio stations, 8 food markets, 6 tribal or fishing villlages, WMDB actually walked past 19 bookstores in A-dam, 20+ musuems, pickled herring sandwiches, chocolate waffles, pancakes to DIE for, trams, Red Light District, the lights and sights and fashionable footwear of Paris, swarms of hunger immigrants selling everything from super-glue to TP on the streets, cattle stampedes, and the second worst roads I have ever encountered.

Not enough. Never enough. This is all the time I have left. 18 days until I get very quickly and very abruptly brought up to speed regarding my decisions. 18 days until I have nothing. In 18 days I will knowingly and deliberately give up a life of complete enjoyment, comfort, safety and love ...

For What It's Worth...

I will have soap for sale soon, and details of my other fundraisers.

nephew grow up. I coached their soccer and basketball teams and taught
them inappropriate words. I let my nephew shift gears and basically drive
my truck when he was 4. I was 21. I shouldn't have been allowed
around children. So it was bittersweet hanging out with Libby and ...

... days before, so I had gotten to hang out with her already. People were awesome for coming and hanging out. We had a blast. We went from early afternoon until the early hours of the next morning. Drunk Cranium was a lot of fun. I have great friends. But I don't have pictures. Someone must though. Email me if you do.

So he went to Rice instead where the mascot is the owls. After graduating with an architechture degree he was commissioned to build a huge bank building in downtown Austin. His design was the building I described - from each corner of the building it really looks like an owl! Pretty much an "in ...

... neighbor Angela for giving me a ride to the airport in the freezing cold on Monday! I got to the airport to check in for my flight and it turns out that Delta overbooked the flight and was offering vouchers for people to take a later flight. I ended up riding in a 15 passenger van with 9 other people down to the San Antonio airport and getting a first ...

This may be redundent to those of you who received an email from us. We are having trouble capturing WIFI signals on our laptop, so we have to borrow a computer to submit this.

Of course southern Florida was experiencing tornadoes, thunderstorms and ...
