Busy/Slow Night

|

It has been a busy/slow night all in one. We went to a pub called The Local, and had dinner with a few on my great friends. Then off to the grocery store we went.

When we got home I printed up some of the pictures I took yesterday and they turned out pretty good. I will post some when I get time....

A Long Hot Trip

|

Ugg.... I got back from the sun scorched state of Iowa. Man was it every hot. Saturday was 105F in the shade and it was almost that hot on Sunday for the drive back. Yuko and I held a reception for our wedding that we had in Osaka in January.

I really didn't feel very good today so I called in sick at work. I took a 4 hour nap, but it is so hot here in the 'hood. Time for some gheto juice :-).

Here are some ditigal pictures that we took in the park.

Split Rock Lighthouse

|

On Saturday we made a trip to Split Rock Light house. It was a lot of fun! We went with some great friends, Brian and Amy and Kimberly.

Unfortunatly, the little blue car is in the shop and due to a delay in getting the correct parts. The repair shop offered the use of their parts running car until mine is fixed. It's the bomb! Amy, Kim and Yuko rode in the bounce back seat and Brian and I rode in the front and took turns keeping the dash instruments running with some not so gentle love taps.

These photos were taken by Yuko with her Canon IXY Digital 30. (Japanese)

Here is a picture from the Gallery.

This is a tipical dinner and Yuko has made for me. I love it! It is pork with a soy sauce type suace. Now I know that sounds strange, the last sentence, but it is the best that I can do to describe it. Ayways, it was delicious!!!
