The Uncertainty of it All

It’s funny how life works.  When you get to the point in your life when you’re ready to have a family you go down that road with high hopes and dreams, and even a few “what on earth am I doing?!” fears.  After about 8 - 9 months you decide to get serious and start [...]

Weekend in Charlotte, NC

You can see all of my photos from our race weekend here.
Our neighbor, Tim, had two extra tickets to the Coca-Cola 600, so we piled in the truck with him and his brother, Jack, for a Memorial Day-weekend in Charlotte.  We left our house around 8am on Friday morning (May 22nd) and stopped for breakfast [...]

Greetings from Huntsville

Greetings from Huntsville, AL, the land of rockets and lost baggage!  Yes, really … Delta lost my bag for the second consecutive time.  As I sit here, it’s 9:33pm and I’ve been given a delivery window of “8:30pm - 8:30am April 7″.  Thank goodness I carry a tiny bottle of saline with me so I [...]
