DY

You know when birds make all of those chirps and songs and stuff...like...what are they saying?

About Me

Let's see.....I moved to Dallas about 4 1/2 years ago from the Bay Area because of my job. It's taken a bit of getting used to, but it's cool.....except that there is no beach, or mountains, or ocean....blah blah blah. ;) (And don't tell me that Texas has those things....I know it does.....but they are like 9 hours away.) That being said, I still find ways to quench my thirst for outdoor activity. I'll be playing softball 4 nights a week, football two nights a week, and I'll try to mix in a little golf whenever possible. Of course, that makes for a lot of post game celebrations at the local watering holes, but it's all in good fun. I've been doing a bit of travelling since I moved here, mostly to and from California, but I've also been able to see a few other parts of the country....and man, it is FLAT! ;) Anyway, I've met a lot of great people here....I guess that's why I haven't left yet. :)

Finally finished "State of Fear" by Michael Crichton. Am I the only person in the world who hasn't read a Harry Potter book? I have 4 of them sitting in the bookshelf staring at me.

Thunderstorm...

So my Cali friends know that the weather was a big issue as far as me moving to Texas.  I mean, earthquakes are one thing, but all of this tornado stuff had me a little bit on edge.  Add tha...

My first tornado

Another Cali trip...with sun this time.

Well, I flew into San Francisco on Saturday night and then hung out with some old friends.  Sunday was my nephew/Godson's baptism.  It was a nice ceremony, although it took place in front of...
