A Wonderfull Memorial Day

Cas and I had a great time this memorial day. I started the day of with a 40 mile bike ride with the family which puts me at 350 miles of training this summer season. We then decided to go see Iron Man in the theaters and we enjoyed the movie. We also got to watch the first half of the new Andromeda Strain that the A&E channel has put on. Cassie has really been doing some cool sketches and I am going to start scanning them for archive and share some of them online.

Memorial Day Weekend

Cas and I had a great weekend being able to see Cassie's sister before she left for her internship. The drive down to portland was interesting starting with cassie watching the infamous Sponge Bob Square Pants Movie. Towards the end of our drive, as we were still stuck in traffic, a large white vehicle tried to change lanes into our lane. With out thinking, I swerved out of the way onto the shoulder avoiding a collision. Thankfully, traffic was only going about 20 m/h. We had a good time eating dinner at Red Robbin. After a "restful" night, Sammy was dropped off and we were off to be back for a 9am window washing appointment. We made it back on time and had a great time washing windows. After finishing our washing we went home and I was able to go on a bike ride with my dad and my brother. I was able to ride my bike about 74 miles and I am still recovering from the ride. Well, I am recovering from the ride and my crash. While we were riding on the orting trail, I went to pass a young man on a bmx bike and as I was about to pass him he swerved in front of me and I crashed, landing on my hands and then my shoulder. While I was out abusing my body on the road Cassie was diligently working on her sketching skills and did some really cool sketches.

museum of glass

Cas and I had a great time last week visiting the museum of glass. Cassie was awesome and found out that one day a month they are open for free, so we went. one of our favorite parts was watching some glass blowers work the glass. I then had some fun making the comic strips. Check out all of our pictures at flickr.com

5 weeks down, not enough to go.

After about a months worth of work, we are on track for being roughly 80% debt free by the end of summer. We are hoping that with better weather business will pick up. We are also going to start doing pressure washing of driveways.

QWERTY? Dvorak?

I have always been frustrated with how the keyboard was organized to slow a person down. This causes the fingers to have to travel a lot more when typing so I found a new way to do the keyboard, Dvorak!! It is taking some real getting used to but I am learning the home row and it will take me a few month to get back up to the speed and ease that I am at with the QWERTY layout but I understand that the benefits are great! one article I read said that in a days worth of typing in QWERTY the fingers travel about 16 to 20 miles just punching the different keys but with the improved layout of Dvork the finger travel is reduced to only 1 mile!!! 1 mile!!! can you believe it?!
