Life update.....

I havent written since last fall/early winter.  Christmas came & went...and so did January.  Life seems to be going by really fast, but I am enjoying it.  I am a very lucky man.  I have a wonderful son, a great guy in my life and some amazing friends that keep me on my toes and make me laugh. 

Christmas was lots of fun.  Trevor went to his Moms for Christmas. So on Christmas morning, after Kris & I opened gifts, I made my way to Kennewick to surprise Trevor.  His mom & sister were in on the surprise and even left me a santa hat on the back of the car to wear when I walked in the door.  We had a great day, played games & enjoyed family time before heading home the next day.


We were just in the SF Bay visiting some family & friends.  We stayed with Trevor's friends, Cliff & Rachael in Pleasant Hill while enjoying the city.  We had lunch with my Grandparents & Marian (my grandmother's caregiver) on Friday.  After a tour of the projects my grandfather had been working on in their wonderful old Mill Vally home and lunch, we ventured to the Golden Gate Bridge to cross off one of Trevor's bucket list items.  We also drove through the Presidio and spent time at the Fort Point at the base of the bridge. 

After a few days, we traveled north to spend some time showing Trevor the Nevada City/Grass Valley area.  We found this little Inn in Nevada City, The Outside Inn, which used to be the Skyway Motel.  Such a cute little place & very welcoming.  The owners were a friend of a friend of Trevor's, so was nice to meet them.  Trevor was able to see where I came from, meet some of my friends & enjoy the area.

We are back in Spokane and life seems to still be passing by really fast.  We seem to go between homes, enjoying each home for what it has to offer and enjoying eachothers company, more and more each day.

Looking forward to more small trips, quick weekend getaways and hopefully somewhere tropical soon. 

Signing off for now....
