Lunch at Chevy's

My former colleague Julie was in town so we all went out to lunch. Gloria, Todd & Julie no longer work at Russell so it was great to get everyone together again.

Work Trips

I went on two trips for work in the past month. The first one was to New York City and the second to Chicago.

Here are some pictures from Chicago. I was able to see a few sites of the city while in town handling logistics for a meeting I planned.

The view out my window of Michigan Avenue.

Random statue on Michigan Avenue.

Another one...

Michigan River

Notice all the broken up ice in the river. It was in the high 50's/low 60's when I was in town.

This is the "Chicago Bean." It was fun to take picture of it.

My reflection in the "bean."

After our meeting at the Racquet Club of Chicago was over we went bowling at lanes located inside the club. The lanes are so old that they don't have an automatic way to reload the pins. They have to hire people to manually restack the pins.

I went to NYC the end of January to scout out locations for a meeting I am planning in May. Here is a close up view of the Statue of Liberty.

The view from my hotel room.

The Brooklyn Bridge.

So funny...

I love this clip from an episode of the Ellen show. Gladys is hilarious. Those related to Grandpa Ernie will recognize a phrase Gladys uses...

Aspen

I am always posting pictures of McKenzie & Riley so I thought it was about time to post some new pictures of Aspen.

According to Bella her name is Asprin.

Kickin' it old school

For my 101st post I thought I would reflect back on my 5 best friends from junior high/high school. It amazes me to think that I have known these 5 for over half my life. Jennie - 21 years, Bri & Allison - 19 years, Jeanne - 17 years and Amie - 16 years. I feel so blessed to be so close with all of them still to this day.

10th Grade - 1992/1993 (I think...)

In my bedroom

Bri, Amie, Jennie, Allison, Jeanne & Me
