Night out

Kris and I met up w/ Rodger and Jenny for a night out in the Cities. Sushi was the dining choice.

My latest hit

*Be sure to pause music player at bottom of page!

Rodger grabbed this vid while I was enjoying some warm up time on one of his beautiful Breedlove Guitars. I apologize for the informal quality of my ability.

This is a rugged shot from my trip to the Black hills.

Happy B-day to me

I broke down after a severe case of GAS (guitar aquisition syndrome) and bough this Breedlove guitar. It is a dreadnaught style w/ traditional spruce top and solid rosewood back. It plays like a dream. Now the problem is finding time to play between school and work. My passion has been re-ignited and I am now working on learning an Emerson, Lake and Palmer tune. Aim high right?

Summer break

I have about two weeks of break from classes and am trying to get some fishing in along with home projects and visiting friends & family. More to come!

Weekend break

As school continues through the summer I have to find time where I can to kick back and enjoy the weather. Rodger and Jenny have been up a couple times to do the same.

Update a little late

Portt townsend was awsome. Gage and Jessica were wonderful hosts. Gage sharpened up his culinary skills with a killer french toast. Overnight at the Green Tortoise with fresh crab from Pike's Place.

Ode to Minnesota

Less than on week back from vacation and I slipped on some Minnesota ice and tumbled or rather bounced down a set of steps. Welcome home!! My initial thought was to call Gage and let him know that I'll meet him in AZ.

Vacation was grand, we had a blast in Mexico and although I shot a good game or two of pool I must must state for the record that Gage is fact in "the greatest champion of the world" two nights running.

Looking forward to spring. More likely pleading with God for warm weather. Check out the vacation pics, Special thanks to Tory who taught me how to surf in Mexico and did not molest me while sharing a cabin on the cruise.

Has it been a month?

So it has been a month since I updated the blog. Lots going on transition wise, CABHS(work) program is closing and I have already started new employment at a local group home. School is thick and I plan on it becoming thicker. Winter has been less than friendly and to pass the time I have been trying my hand at Tulibee fishing. In two days I'll be in sunny San Diego with Gage and Jessica as we undertake a voyage of splendid amplitude. More upon my return!!

Fun at Psycho Suzi's

Kristine and I bounced down to nordeast Minneapolis to spend an evening with brother Rodger and wife Jenny as well as our wonderful friends Kim and August. Rodger had heard about this place called Psycho Suzi's Motor Club which used to be an old A&W drive through.
On the menu: fried cheese, build your own mini hot dogs, spicy artichoke dip, home made pizza, and a mozzerella stuffed bread thing. For dessert, smores complete with a tiny grill to flame up the marshmellos. It was great to catch up with Kim and August and a great way to warm up a cold Minnesota evening.

Starting spring semester and all is well. Cold weather approaching so Spanky and I are focusing our energy on good food and warm blankets.
