Jun 15, 2003 - Off to the wedding

I did get my 8 miles of running in this morning. And now off to a day of activities culiminating in my daughter's wedding. Pictures will probably be up later this evening.

Jun 15, 2003 - Father's Day

Happy Father's Day to my father. A good man who lived a life of quiet service. We stuffed a gigantic church with people who knew of you, appreciated your work and were sad to see you leave.

I miss you dad.

Jun 14, 2003 - Living in the Boonies

I live in a fairly large city (a few million people) so we don't consider Portland, Oregon too far out in the boonies, but this story on Yahoo tells of a tragic boating accident off the Oregon coast. But the byline is for Palo Alto, California and, although the accident happened near Tillamook Oregon (think cheese ), the article reports it as "near" Portland and then even has a picture of Oregon in relation to Washington state so readers can know this little piece of geography.

I guess Oregon is the boonies.

Jun 14, 2003 - Instant Electrician

The plaster board fellows showed up at 7am this Saturday morning to finish nailing plaster to the walls and ceilings. As we were about to leave to run, my wife mentions that she wanted two lights on each side of the bathroom sink rather than just one overhead. Oopppssss.

So a quick trip to the hardware store and some wiring and hammering and trying to stay ahead of the plasterers. Now there are two but it didn't make up for missing my morning run. I'll have to run tomorrow morning. So much for sleeping in.
