San Diego: Day 6
Day 6 Today we head back home. The flight is leaving at 8:30am which sounded OK when we booked it. So, we need to be up early. We are a little behind to start with, but we grabbed the breakfast sandwich to go, and we are back on track. We arrive at the Read More...
Selfish Vehicle Owners
So, most days I get to work after 8:00am so all of the good parking places are gone. There is some room right outside the door to my area that is painted off as no parking, due to the sidewalk going right from that space. There is actually quite a bit Read More...
San Diego: Day 5
DAY 5 Day 5 is planned to be a catch-all day. We picked a bunch of stuff from the internet that looked like cool old stuff for Nina's photography. Eva woke up around 7:00am again, which is good again, because the nap at the hotel worked so well yesterday, Read More...
San Diego: Day 4
DAY 4 So day four starts off like the earlier ones, although today we decide to just chill at the hotel room until after EG's morning nap. Eva wakes up at 7:00am which is closer to normal, but not quite there yet. It works out well for us though, since Read More...
San Diego: Day 3
DAY 3 Eva woke up around 6:00am this morning, so we are closer to CA time. We had decided to go to Sea World today. We again got the great breakfast at the Hotel, and took a banana for the road, which always comes in handy when you eat at amusement parks Read More...

Plane Satellite Image
Since Google started offering the map service with the satellite images, I have used that to get my directions. In San Diego I looked up the Hodad's restaurant using the satellite image to get an idea of the location we were looking for. Apparently, since Read More...

San Diego: Day 2
DAY 2 Eva forgot that the time was three hours behind, so we were all up at 5:00am. Since Disney World is an hour away, I thought it was wise to head there today, and get there right at opening. We got the free breakfast that the hotel provided, and it Read More...
It's A Girl
So, for those who have completey given up on this blog, I have the third post of the day! Me & Nina had the ultrasound this week, and found out that the baby we are having in September is a girl. The ultrasound also showed no other issues, and everything Read More...
San Diego: Day 1
These posts will journal the vacation we took a couple weeks ago, but will be written as though it is the same day... DAY 1: Friday April 21 We are flying out of GRR through MSP to SAN. This is Eva's first ride on a plane, and we can't afford to buy her Read More...
The Price of Gasoline
A lot has been said lately about the price of gasoline in the US. I will not be making any friends with this post, but I need to explain why I do not complain about the price of gas. The price of gas is set the same way any product in the US is priced... Read More...
