Courtyard By Marriott Lansing

The English Inn in Eaton Rapids (outside of Lansing Mi) is where we got married one year ago October 4, we went back to celebrate our anniversary and recall that "day of days". It was a little warmer this year but still a nice cool misty October afternoon / evening. Here are a few photos from this year, we will post some photos from the wedding in a few days.<br><br>Love to All, Tom &amp; Donna<br>

... take my pill that morning. I checked the prices on Sunday and they had already moved up to $815. Right now they are $830 [I feel so thrifty and resourceful]. Being a semi-economist (one with some idea of how prices work), plane tickets are extremedly complicated yet they work perfectly. If someone needs a ticket, they will pay almost any price. If that ticket is bought last minute, it's very likely that it's price will be high. Yet, I am not completely confident with that ...

We're heading west to go home after a fantastic summer. <br><br>It feels so right to be back on my bike again, it's like we never parted.<br><br>Was<br>on the road by noon. A good, albeit wet, ride today. A bit of delay at<br>the Sarnia/Port Huron border for Matt to renew his visa waiver form but<br>no ...

... br>It will be interesting to compare the journey back through the US. Already i notice the incessant Golden Arches that are at every single junction. <br><br>Aiming to be back in Nanaimo by September 1st but we'll see how things develop and how the roads are. <br><br>This journey is to be savoured.<br>

... thought. <br><br>I had envisioned creating the entries on the laptop while Jim drove &#8211; but that assumes that there is nothing better to do and, believe me, the scenery is too gorgeous here to not be viewing. So, then, the next best option is to do it in the campground at night. But that doesn&#8217;t account for a full day of sightseeing, supper and planning for the next day &#8211; with playing games or sitting by the ...

... 12 days in Italy (actually, Italia -- why is it that we call other countries and their cities by a different name than what they call it, especially when it sounds better??). There will be separate blog entries for each city so that we can share some of our hundreds of photos. The hardest part of this will be picking out which ones to share. The amazing thing about Italy is that everywhere we went there was a slice of art to be captured ...

... mmitment f*r the day: an appearance *n Mark Pasman's blues sh*w *n WCSX-FM in Oak Park. We have s*me laughs with Mark, annn*unce my final Detr*it appearances the next day, plug the b**k, hear s*me hip music and head h*me f*r the night. ************ Thinking ab*ut when I met Sc*tt Allman makes me think ab*ut an*th** Lansing musician wh* was a cl*se friend and is n*w n* l*ng** with us, the ten*r man kn*wn as Big Red, *r R*n Redman, *r legally (I think, if ...

... bit, having quite a few hours to go, but eventually I had nothing to do. I called home. Nick answered and we talked for quite a while. And then the conversation sort of stopped. So we both agreed it was time to go on about our days and we'd see each other in a few hours. I called Mel to catch up too, and by the time I was done I only had another 2 or 3 hours to wait. As it turns out, sometime since we booked those tickets this flight changed from 1:30 to 3:00, so I had a good long ...

... pics. Third day came by... we met up for lunch at a bar &amp; grill restaurant. Then went to Best Buy with Michael to buy a few things. I didn't need buy anything, but Kero was trying to look for her Ipod Nano. After shopping/looking around at Lansing Mall, we said our goodbyes to Michael and we went separate ways. Kero and I stopped by a few shops to buy snacks before heading out to the hwy. Our last stop ...

I am in the middle of classes for today, only one hour to go, and it's the stupid class left. We are doing group presentations now, to learn about communication. Yes, that's right, they're making us, as graduate students, learn about the benefits of communication. Like we could have made it this far if we were hermits and didn't talk to anyone. They would have weeded those loners who don't communicate well out during the ...
