August Update

Hello. Here's the update for August. Erin and I traveled up to Canada at the start of the month to celebrate both of my parents turning 70 (!) this year. We spent the weekend at Colleen and Richard's place on Bob-lo island near Windsor. It was our first summer trip there. Family came from all over with Brian coming from Korea, myself and Erin from LA or course and several cousins and aunts coming from Ireland. There are some pictures here (Just updated). It was a mostly relaxing weekend. You forget sometimes how hard the Irish and Canadians can party. The people I hangout with on the West Coast are relative lightweights (Mr. and Mrs. Terhorst excluded). The weekend was pretty relaxed with a barbeque on Friday and some games and and a dinner out on Saturday. It was great to see everybody together. Opportunities keep getting fewer.

Since then, I've spent t2 weeks in Portland kicking off a new project for work. Last weekend we watched Edward Scissorhands at the Hollywood Cemetery. I may have taken a nap during the last half of it but the picnic beforehand was fun. The movie itself was not as good as last year's LA Confidential at Barnsdall Park.

What else happened? Oh yes, at the start of the month I had underwent surgery to fix a nut related problem. It was pretty minor, a quick recovery and so far the results are good. Unfortunately, there will be no pictures of the scars.


Cheers
