Don't eat the lizzard!

L&E came to visit us this weekend. we looked at a few places
to get married at. saw some super cute places on the water.
Get ready people...July 2010 is when it's at!!!
Thanks for everything!!!!


Do you know where that tail has been??? Ha ha!

Three weeks ago we took sky diving lessons to do a solo jump...
who wants someone strapped to their butt when doing something
this cool? We wanted control of our lives. THE COOLEST THING
I (and I think K) HAVE EVER DONE. IF YOU EVER WANT TO BUY
ME SOMETHING...BUY ME ANOTHER JUMP. WE CAN'T WAIT TO
GET CERTIFIED TO DO IT AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN!!!

This is the last minute instruction session. Jump on!!!

rugby rugby rugby

This weekend can be summed up in one word....rugby!
T&S came in town for the USA 7's rugby tournament.
Super fun, super good, rugby. From day one I claimed
Argentina was going to win...if I'm telling you that, then you
already know they won. There were a lot of pissed off Eagles
fans, but hey they should be stoked because after all, it was
the best showing the Eagles have had. Ever.


Day one photo of the crew. I had to crop out the dude in the kilt
behind me...gross.





This is our impressions of the All Blacks (T's home team)





shown here. They didn't do the Hakka though




I'm not sure if any of us changed for day 2, but here is the
day 2 crew!




T trying to make out with c-low

Overall it was a great weekend. Good to see you TS.

Thanks for the shirt and the jacket.

A's birthday

Wednesday we went out to the comedy show to celebrate A's B-day!
Super Funny show, everyone was funny...except the lady comic
(which, by the way, A & K thought was the funniest...go figure)!!!


The girls

say hello to my little friends 1

turn the volume UP!!!

say hello to my little friends

the parrots above my house at 6:30 am. I'm up, the neighbors will be soon!

turn the volume up for this one!!!

damn it's cold

eerrrrr berrr.
it's super cold this morning. the waves are looking
good and hollow, but not good enough for a dawn
patrol. the spray getting blown off the tops looks
as though it's turning to snow before it hits the water...

USA 7's rugby tourney is this weekend and T&S are coming
over for the action!

side note: i talked with one of my child hood buddies yesterday.
he recently (1.5 years ago) moved back home to lj after getting his
masters degree. i still don't believe he actually got it, because i
don't understand how anyone could be that educated and still be
that ignorant. change your dumb views and grow up dude...

this pic is from the fire that the ranger started when she was burning
a letter in the woods a few years back.

The parrots are back! These dudes are sooo cool. Part of my daily entrainment.

This dude is entertaining too...

A couple pics from the past week. We didn't start taking pictures
until we started heading south to D's house, so these pics only
document about 1/10 of the trip. I'll post more later but here is
a taste...


On the mountain....forced me to take a lunch break...
"yeah, yeah, pretty...are you people ready yet???"






Tired, Hungry & Thirsty!



Thanks E&L for letting us stay at the house, taking care of my truck
and a day on the mountain.

Thanks for the grub Aunt A.
