Yikes! You can see why I chose the title for my blog… I have no idea where the days went since the last time I wrote, I have to finish that post about Denver (I still had more music to share), and I have a good post in my camera and in my head about my…
We joined Nikki Friday night at Novitá in Garden City NY (where she is a hostess on the weekends). [Sandy (not me, Mom's friend) said anywhere else it would be pronounced novEEta, but in Garden City it has to be noviTAH.] We were pretty much the only ones there since the weather was so atrocious, so that…
McElwain's got my car done in less than a week! (I had told them I had to have it back by Thursday so I could drive to NYC on Friday – I refuse to drive a not-hybrid vehicle all that way) When I went to pick it up, Wayne (yes, I'm now on a first-name…
Monday we had a meeting with our largest client in Denver, a very small town (if it is one at all) in Amish country in eastern Pennsylvania (about 4.5 hours away). Strictly a business trip, but I still enjoyed myself… I drove directly from home, while Jim and Laura met to drive together (it's one…

I think I mentioned that there was a Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reporter traveling and living with us on our trip in February. Her video and article were posted on the P-G website today. [Please let me know if this link breaks] Read and post comments | Send to a friend
Well, it's been 3 weeks, but I finally got everything written up about our trip, and re-dated the posts to the day they happened rather than the day I wrote them. Here's a sort of index to my posts, so you can read them in chronological order instead of last-to-first as they appear in Vox.1…
An interesting article in USA Today about Katrina volunteers… [Please let me know if this link breaks, and I'll post a copy] Read and post comments | Send to a friend
Some random thoughts in summary: We decided even before we got back home that we'd definitely like to go back again next year. Even if the Synod doesn't arrange a trip, we can just reserve spots for ourselves at Camp Victor. Or perhaps some of our friends from Trinity will want to go along next…
Where have the days gone?
