detective work

Friday, 30 June 2006 10:39 P GMT-08
Am desperately searching for clues as to what Jeremy got me for my birthday.  He mysteriously disappeared from the house the other day -- taking Tate with him -- and wouldn't tell me where he was going.  He was gone for an hour and returned

switching gears

Switching gears VERY rapidly here.  I know I just finished recapping our last trip...now I'm knee-deep into last-minute planning of our next trip! (No rest for the weary, eh?) Anyhow, I will probably be littering this blog with all sorts of see

Day Three (and a half) of NYC

Wednesday, 28 June 2006 8:49 P GMT-08
I'm going to finish this recap tonite if it kills me!!  As I was writing my last post, I started to get the eerie sensation of what it would be like to force extended family and friends to sit through hours upon hours of a slideshow of an infinite n

Day Two in NYC, Part II

Tuesday, 27 June 2006 4:33 P GMT-08
After we left Ground Zero, we walked down Wall Street so my dad could pay homage to the New York Stock Exchange... ...and to the scary men with guns walking all around outside the NYSE...  

Day Two in NYC: Ground Zero

Tuesday, 27 June 2006 12:05 P GMT-08
We got an early start on Day Two and made our way down to Lower Manhattan to see the former site of the World Trade Center.  Visiting Ground Zero is something I think every American should do if given the opportunity, and I particularly wanted t

Day One in NYC

I am quickly running out of steam and need to get through these recaps so I can start focusing on London, baby, London!  Must. find. a. way. to. condense.  Jeremy has always said I'm an "expander," which has certainly proved to be

The Road Trip from Hell

Saturday, 24 June 2006 7:17 A GMT-08
We said our tearful goodbyes in Maine and began the journey down to New York City.  When we started the three hour drive to Boston, it was sprinkling outside.  By the time we crossed over the New Hampshire/Massachusetts border it was

Vacationland

Wednesday, 21 June 2006 1:32 P GMT-08
Our week in Maine started off on a dark and stormy night...literally!  It started raining on our drive up the coast, and didn't really stop much until our last day there when we had one glorious warm day of sunshine.  Many people apologized

Our very first 'bee'

Tuesday, 20 June 2006 10:43 A GMT-08
At last!  The start of my vacation recap.  I think I'm finally unpacked and caught up at home, we made it through Father's Day, and I'm no longer getting those annoying "connection timed out" messages from Blog-City.  Let me

Treasure Hunters

Sunday, 18 June 2006 11:20 A GMT-08
Updates are a work-in-progress.  Will post soon.  But for now, I wanted to send out a PSA to all those reality TV show junkies out there (like myself!).  There is a new show premiering on NBC tonite called "Treasure Hunters."

best. trip. ever.

We are home from our very first cross-country trip with Tate.  I am happy to report that, not only did we survive, we had a F-A-N-T-A-S-T-I-C time!  It was seriously one of the best trips I've ever taken, only enhanced by watching Tate soak
