Just got back this past weekend from an 8 day trip to California with the wife, her sis and sis' hubby, and one other couple. First time out there for all of us. We were in San Francisco and the Paso Robles, Sonoma, and Napa Valley wine regions. Loved every minute of it and really needed to recharge. The wineries and scenery there are absolutely gorgeous.

Not sure where to put this, but it is awesome, so here will do.

Tonight the Canadian’s beat the USA in OT to win the Women’s World Junior Championship.

This ended a run of 8 (I think) in a row for you guys.

Congratulations on the house and becoming a parent.  I wish you and your family all the best in the future.

Awesome.

Being a parent is really GD hard but also a fantastic experience.

Once he/she sleeps through the night -- and you should drop the hammer at the 3-month mark IMHO -- you are in the clear.

Congrats.

Boy or girl... you sleep when the baby does... it does get better but the first few months are rough.

Jesse Pegula won her second round match at the US Open... got to watch it as my wife and I had tickets for a couple of weeks.  She hadn't been to one in 35 years we saw the number 3 player in the world, a German,  destroy a Spaniard in 3 sets... he was serving at 135 miles an hour.

25 years ago, we moved into our first house and had our first child in the same month.

The exterior, yard and every room except the one I'm sitting in right now has been changed, but we're still here.

Our daughter now comes to visit when she's not hiking mountains and helping troubled kids.

Enjoy. You are in for a ride.

I went to Albania in January along with Montenegro, Kosovo and Macedonia. Albania remains to be one of my favorite countries. Everyone was so amazingly kind and they love Americans, which isn't always the case lol. 

I have 12 days for Romania so I booked a route that covers 2600 miles with approx 65 hours of drive time. I was gonna attempt to get to Serbia too, but that'll have to wait for a separate Serbia/Bosnia trip.
