After weeks and weeks of work, I'm ready to take a break.  Just a small one, but an exciting one.  While you were all basking in the sun during spring break last week, I was working hard in my office.  Well, this Friday I head to Portland and Salem to see some friends... On Saturday I'm heading up to Tacoma to see a Fall Out Boy / All American Rejects/ Hawthorne Heights concert.  A couple of friends will be coming up with me... I am looking forward to it!  I will return to work (of course) next Tuesday.  Keithanne is going to be leaving for a couple of weeks, and though it will be hard without her, we will manage as well as we can until she gets back.  It is then I will probably take a longer leave of absence.

I have been promising pictures of my new ride. Here are a couple.  It's going to be a sweet ride.  I can hardly wait to see how well it pulls my boat.
While we're at it, I can't wait until summer!  It's been spring for a couple of weeks now, but it still feels like winter in Wallowa County.  The days are getting longer and it's getting slightly warmer, but nothing major yet.
As I reported to you last week, I was ill, very ill.  Still don't know what it was -- but I can tell you I have bounced back and I feel a whole lot better.  It was a nasty bug!
