NOVEMBER ALREADY!
And 2005 is almost over. Crazy. I swear the older I get the faster time goes by.
A while ago, Linds and I went to Santa Barbara for a day during the week. Since she teaches at a Hebrew preschool, Lindsey gets weird days off so we took that opportunity to get out of town for a day when it was nice and cheap to do so. We stayed at a cute little bed & breakfast place called the Eagle Inn which was very cool and romantic and cheaper than the corporate hotel chains in the area. We even had our own hot tub. That ruled. We drove around the area and took a long walk on the pier, marveling at the crazy looking skies...half stormy, half sunny. We also took in their big shopping street and window shopped for a few hours. It was very relaxing. We drove Highway 1 back for awhile and took in the beach sights. There were some cool hippie debris sculptures all over the shore.
This whole thing seemed to stretch for miles. That's my gal in the foreground.
A little bit after that, Linds and I went with her Dad Dean and her sister Mandie to the big air show at Edwards Air Force Base. As one can imagine, Linds and Mandie were less than thrilled with the place. Dean and I, however, were like kids in a toy store where the toys cost 40 million bucks a pop. I tend to be a dove when it comes to war and stuff, but it's still impressive as hell when you're walking inside a C-130 Hercules or seeing a B-52 bomber fly over head. It's amazing anything that big and heavy can actually get off the ground and stay there.
Here's that vertical take-off plane that crashes all the time. I read an article about it in Vanity Fair, I think. Still pretty cool lookin'.
A couple of weeks ago, I went to Cincinnati for my friend Rob's wedding. Rob's one of my buddies from high school, one of only 4 or 5 I still talk to, so it was necessary for me to be there...especially since I missed his college graduation a few years back. Overall, it was a good time and it was nice to hang with my boys. Nearby Kentucky was just gorgeous with all the leaves changing colors.
My boys.
I worked on a few random jobs the last few weeks but I'm still hoping to get more substantial employment soon, especially with the coming winter. Lots of birthdays and holidays and anniversaries in the pipe.
CELEBRITY SIGHTING: I SAW KIRSTEN DUNST TODAY
I hung out with my gal-pal Amy today. We went to Priscilla's to get a cup of something hot and I saw Kirsten Dunst there today. She looked exactly like Kirsten Dunst.

Once, Lisa and I were headed up to Santa Maria but the 101 was washed out. Same kind of driftwood piles but bigger! AND a dead pig.
Maybe you'll get luckier the next time.
Love the VTOL plane.
