July

It's been nearly 2 months since my last post, so I decided it was time for a quick update. We've had some big deadlines at work and equipment that has been uncooperative at times, so my weeks have been very busy. I've kept busy on the weekends spending time with SooAnn, career class friends, and my family.

Speaking of my family, I'm excited that we'll be heading to Ohio on Thursday to visit my parents for an extended weekend. I'm hoping to pick some wild black raspberries next to some of my dad's fields, but they've had an extremely dry summer so the raspberry supply has been low. Black raspberries are one of my favorites, especially fresh ones over vanilla ice cream.

This upcoming weekend is also the 1-year anniversary of my first visit to Lafayette. I stayed with my sister in Indianapolis and she rode up with me to check out the area and find a place to live. God has been so faithful over this past year! Thanks to all of you for your friendship!

Here's a picture of a budding meteorologist (my nephew) looking even more excited about anemometers than I am (it that's possible).

You are a moldy oldy now, buddy. And we are so due to play tennis. I'm exceedingly pumped. Lately, I've been worse then rotten cheese.

Big guy: Yes, we are so due for tennis. Eric and I played a set this evening.... perfect weather.

M.Kate: I'll try to have fun this weekend... However, the trip mentioned in the post was LAST weekend. It was a lot of fun... But no black raspberries due to the drought. And thanks for inviting me to read your blog.
