The west coast is over…

Loving your neighbor…

Saturday, October 15th, 2005

Sometimes in life crazy things happen… like your neighbor driving into his own front porch. Yes that is right. Up onto the curb, through the bushes, past the little tree, and up on to the porch. The good news is that there is a solid brick pillar that stopped the car. I cant even imagine what would have happened if that pillar was not there. There are two lessons to be learned from this little incident that happened last night (10/14).

1. Don’t drink and drive. Let’s just say that our neighbor has a little drinking problem. Needles to say, we will not be getting him a nice bottle of wine for the holidays. But maybe a free pass to an AA meeting.
2. Remember to get out of your car before trying to get inside your house. The car does not fit through the door.

You might be thinking WOW! What else did he hit. Well, that is the crazy thing. He managed to pull through two cars that were parked (one was mine) and did not even make a scratch on either.

I am really upset that I was not at home when this happened. Andrea has been keeping me informed on the latest neighborhood drama. The thing you have to remember is that this is the same guy who got a DUI, got put in jail, posted bail, got a cab home, remembered that the cops still had his keys, and broke into his own house at 4am.

Andrea and I live in a nice part of town. We live in a little group of townhouses that are on a golf course. But all of this excitement is definitely better than watching those bad golfers any day. I might post some pictures of the little accident, but maybe not. Lets just say it was not pretty.

I am out on the west cost for the next 2 weeks with Derek and Sandra. I am hoping to put some pictures from the shows as well as the traveling around up on the web site. If you live out on the west cost, check out derekwebb.com and come to a show.

another vacation

Tuesday, September 6th, 2005

I feel like I am always telling you about my vacations… but when DW is off the road, I like to go places. So this is my story. Andrea and I went to Colorado for Labor Day weekend. But the night before we left I decided to almost cut my finger off. Ok. I did not want to do it. But this is why I should not play with sharp objects. Let this be a lesson for those of you who may want to buy the chef Tony “miracle blade 3” knife set. Damn those things are sharp!!! Three stitches later, we went to Colorado and had a blast. There are some pictures up on the site now, and I will gladly email anyone a picture of my stitches. Hope you all are good.

back from vacation

Thursday, June 16th, 2005

Well, I am back from vacation. All I can say is that I have never seen a place that was as cool as Virgin Gorda. If you have not already seen the pictures, you need to. My family rented a house on the beach for 10 days. We spent time just relaxing. There was some of the best snorkeling I have ever seen just outside our back door. It beat Hawaii and the Florida Keys by a ton. Every morning when I got up we would go and check out the reefs. We saw sea turtles, stingrays, a ton of different tropical fish, some squid, one reef shark, a lobster, crabs, and some of the coolest coral.

It was great for Andrea and I to spend the time with my parents, sister, brother in-law, and their kids. One of my aunts spent a few days with us as well. If you ever have the chance to visit the Virgin Islands, go.
