Cami is doing her annual “sisters retreat” with her sisters and sister-in-law. They are running around Phoenix this year, having the time of the lives. It’s a recipe for a boring weekend. I put in the paperwork for the new job. The start date will likely be the Monday after next. Moving isn’t my favorite … [Read more…]
Yesterday Cami’s brother replaced my worn out catalytic converter. It runs quietly now, and I won’t be getting as many strange looks. That’s a good thing. I’ve been worried about the brakes. They haven’t been squealing constantly, but I wanted to make sure the car is ready for whatever cross-country jaunts I might have to … [Read more…]
Today’s ride was windy, especially on the way back. I forgot to fill my water bottle and only had about a half cup to work with. I used it sparingly. The wind kept me from getting too hot on the way up, but my mouth was dry. I took a few sips of water as … [Read more…]

I made this for Cami a while back. It was supposed to be for her birthday, but it wasn’t quite ready then. She sports it now on the back window of Esther. One of these days I will surprise her with a Tina graphic that goes from floor to ceiling in her bedroom. 🙂
Ok, the engagement is fully official. We have a date, and a now a ring. Cami and I picked it up at the jewelers today – 4 days after they said it would be ready. But, that didn’t dampen Cami’s spirits. She said she loved it, and I couldn’t be happier about that. Now we … [Read more…]
Well, the word went out on the wire last night. We are getting married on October 16th. A year ago, I would never have guessed I would be in this situation. So much can change so quickly. Cami and I hit it off from the beginning, and she brings out the best in me. I … [Read more…]
Saturday I was working on a website when Cami called to say she got invited to the zoo. I decided to come along. We went with Nate and Holli and their kids. The heat was intense at the zoo, and I thought for sure I would be sunburned. We managed to survive, and I didn’t … [Read more…]
