hannah and dogs

     So this is Brian writing for the first time since i usually just put the pics on. So here it goes, I can't promise much especially following Hannah's writing. I am sure she will get a good laugh from it all!

      Since the last entry in this blog a few things happened. Hannah and I went to Chocolate World in Hershey and enjoyed many of rides in the freezing cold weather. Atleast we got to ride most of them all by ourselves, including the pirate ship which was the highlight of the night. I don't know how many times we rode that, even a few times by ourselves. It was Hannah's dream come true since that is her favorite ride of all time!!! I even got Hannah on the bumper cars, which was very surprising.  In her younger years she developed a phobia of bumper cars, one bad experience and that was it. You can ask her the story, i don't think she would like it if i told it! It is a pretty funny story though, so its worth asking!!! It was just us two on the whole track which was very fun and a good way to ween her back on the bumper cars. Ofcourse we ended the night with a fancy and expensive dinner at Wendy's. Good old dollar menu, it felt like we were on our bike tour again.

We finally got to spend a christmas together also. Its about time and it was fun. She got her beloved Harbor Seal and i got my "favorite" animal, the raccon!!! We also went to one of the Japanese Steak houses that make the food in front of you. My plan was to take her to a local indian resteraunt but ofcourse the one day they are closed we went. Whos closed on a tuesday??? I should have known that was going to happen though, thats just how it works with me and my plans. She would have loved it but the hibache place was fun anyway. Hopefully one day i can take her to a resteraunt IN india. That is definetly on our list of places to travel to. One of these days! All in all it was a good christmas.

For the remaining time till Hannah left for London it was back and forth from my house to her house. When we needed a break from the dogs we would head to Hannah's house, when we needed a break from the crazy Hall house we headed back to my house. lots of driving thats for sure, but it was all worth it. In that time we went on lots of walks with the dogs, dunkin donuts, and lots and lots of knitting. I am becoming quiet the knitter, i'll put some pics up of my projects and Hannah's scarf that she made for me. It's pretty sweet, it has come in handy at work already. Oh work...

Another big thing that happened for me is I got a job for the winter until i head out to visit Hannah and then go back to Jackson for the summer. It really stinks to be back at work since i haven't worked one bit in the last 4 months, i just rode bikes. This year i have worked 4 out of 12 months because of my trip last winter. It is a bit of a downer knowing that i will be working probably for the next year atleast, fun fun!!! Especially since my job consists of working a chair lift at the tiny little local ski hill. Its cold, boring, and very little pay. I guess I can handle it since it is only for 2 1/2 months until i go back to the golf course which is awesome.

The biggest thing that happened is Hannah left for 5 months to London on new years eve. That girl is crazy, she is all over the place this year. Its back to talking on skype again and writing lots of letters. I leave to visit Hannah on March 24th to April 8th. I can't wait even though she is probably going to make me go clubbing and dancing. That should be interesting!!! She'll be impressed with my secret dancing skills i have! But for now i guess reading her blogs will have to do. They are always good and i can't wait till the next one. Now i am off to bed to dream of my girl!!!
