Well it's been a busy spring and now summer is pretty much here, and it's hot. Starting sometime in February I managed to spend nine weekends in a row out of town for at least part, if not whole, weekends. Visiting friends. Watching disc golf. Mourning and celebrating a life. It's been a whirlwind. I've taken some pictures along the way that I'd like to share. Of course I hope to keep up with the blogging throughout the summer. I've got no huge summer plans, but Tia, some friends and I may go to West Yellowstone for Farmageddon Fest - a music festival. I recently got promoted at my job and I'm settling in. I've got a busy couple weeks coming up with quarter end!
 |
| Brandon and I traveled up to Holton, KS in early spring to visit friends Joel and Julie. We took our time traveling and stopping to play a couple of disc golf courses along the way. |
 |
| Tia and I went to Lawrence and met up with some Bethel folk. We saw William Elliot Whitmore at the Granada. |
 |
| We also saw Drakkar Sauna at the Granada. |
 |
| In March I visited my dear friend Ashley who is now living in DC. She showed me around town properly with cupcakes from Crumbs. |
 |
| Peanut Butter Cup cupcake! |
 |
| Oh, and no big deal, but Ashley and I set court side at a Washington Wizards/Portland Trailblazers NBA game. |
 |
| Ashley also
got to come home in May for her family's big auction. Josh, Ashley and I
went to see the Avengers in IMAX 3D while she was home. |
 |
| Visiting grandpa. Such a loving, caring, wonderful man was lost. He was always proud of the things we had done. He was willing to help anyone out. |
 |
|
Despite the sadness surrounding us we were able to love, bond, and hold each other close. I cannot describe how thankful I am for this family. |
 |
| And baby Gavin is about the cutest little genius around. |
 |
| Tia, some friends and I camped out on a farm east of Newton for String Break, a benefit mini festival for Kirk Rundstrom. Here's Tia ready to go. |
 |
| Camping, Drinking, Music. |
 |
| Brandon and I also traveled to several of his tournaments this spring, with more to come. |
 |
| Brandon, Nathan, and I went to the Bartlett Arboretum in Belle Plaine, KS to watch Tim O'Brien play a show. |
 |
| The weather was great. We had a slight breeze and some cold beers to keep us cool | | . |
 |
| For $10 you got to see the concert and tour the arboretum. You could bring in your own cooler with food and drinks, which is what we did. I did have to splurge on a $5 BBQ plate too though. |
 |
| We through a party for our friend Gen's birthday! |
 |
| Measuring cups made a substitute for small beverage glasses. |
