And in the east the whole horizon is in flames

Hot Springs, South Dakota.

Kidney Spring...cause it's naturally about the temperature of pee.

So, this day was one of the worst days I've ever had as a Ford rep. Actually, as a person in general. But I saw this staircase, and despite the heels and suit, I trudged up all of them, knowing at the top had to be something spectacular. I had found a vertical gateway to some little known photo opportunity that was going to save my slowly dying artistic spirit. I reached the top, out of breath to find...a sidewalk.

It figured.

The sight that finally allowed me to break down and cry.

Seeing things from a better side than most can dream

Bryan/College Station, Texas

John's BBQ 2007

Domo Arigato

So I had that stupid song in my head the ENTIRE day after we ate at Domo in downtown Denver. Fantastic evening was worth it though...

:-D

We had our monthly Denver Team Meeting on the most beautiful Friday we've seen this year. And out of the window we could see an event being held in our courtyard...complete with a Bouncy Play Center! So we took Qdoba back to the courtyard and ate in the sun. Before heading up, though, Jen threw off her shoes and disappeared into one of the tiny entrances!

Of course, I have to join her! And, just in time for me to take one picture, a lady comes up to us and asks us: "I'm sorry, but do your parents work for Laramarc?"

EXCUSE ME?!

Justification

Where's my bike?!

Present from Jennifer's surprise birthday trip to Key West! Stuff NEVER has my name on it! Along with this, she bought a magnet on her lay over in Dallas, and Blonde Giraffe Key Lime Chocolate Covered Expresso Beans. Can it get any more perfect?!

Have I mentioned my camer is DIA?

Cause I like it, and my camera is dead

Death of a Camera

Last time I don't travel with a freakin' charger. Grrrrrrr.

Best Pina Colada this side of the Rio Grande

La Fogata...it used to be a Whataburger years and years ago!

VIVE FIESTA!

San Antone, baby! And just after our confetti egg commencement!

T.P.

Best excuse for a rest stop I've ever seen.

And with as much as I drive, trust me, I've seen a few.

K-I-S-S-I-N-G

I must've missed these last summer...absolutely breath-taking!

This is the start of a beautiful relationship

Ok, so it's just a wee bit chaotic around here, and with Blogger being down for picture-loading for an inordinant amount of time, I'm now behind on clicking AND posting. So...here. Enjoy these. They make me laugh when I'm all by myself.

I love me some Jennifer

Best day off EVER!

And now I TOTALLY have bachelorette party ideas (SANS strippers...get your mind out of the gutter).

Happy Easter

Thank the Lord for Einstein's Bagels...and His ressurection.

These things are so freakin' cute, it's sad they're considered rodents...

I was trying to take a picture of the odometer of my Fusion I've had since February. This is how much I drive.
