Home at last

Jenny and I had to split up in SA in order to get home. I took the last and only seat on the first flight and she took the last and only seat on the second flight. We connected with different flights to Charleston. I picked her up at the airport and here we are. I will say unequivocally I have a passionate dislike for flying. We arrived to find our new garage pretty much done.

Getting high before dinner

Never let it be said that it's a good idea to take 6 young girls to a nice restaurant. Aubrey's birthday was celebrated in The Tower of The Americas. This is the end of Fiesta week in SA so there was SOME traffic. The girls had a good time. That is what was important.

Aubrey's 7th

We have made the trek to SA to celebrate Aubrey's b'day. It was our first 2 leg commute. We flew out of Charleston, into Charlotte and then here. Looks like getting home might be difficult. Anyway, we so far, have visited a park for some aggressive swinging and had our nails done at a salon.

Linz visit

Approaching the dreaded tax deadline of April 15th, Lindsay decided to leave Jamie to slave over Turbo Tax all by himself. She brought the kids and dogs for a visit. She also brought a bubble machine.

Making progress

There was a arts and crafts deal at the town center today. We took a break from putting the house together and walked over there. One thing a 'downsizing' move does is give you a razor focus on what you might buy in the future. We, without question, needed no arts and crafts. There was a guy there that handmade wooden canoes and paddles. This paddle was for sale for a mere $765. He had a canoe there that was going for $70,000. He has a lifetime of back orders. Sadly I don't need a canoe.
