I will probably cheat and add in some pre-dated posts - of my last couple of trips, anyway!
Tons of changes since my last post. My position was eliminated right before my big trip to Peru and Ecuador. Sort of cast a big cloud over the trip, but I did my best to put it out of my mind as much as possible.
I accepted a much lower level position at the winery, and have managed to come back financially at least part way. The most frustrating thing is I'm still doing the same job as before, just for a lot less money. My position is being moved to another division and I'm viewing it as an excellent opportunity to move forward again.
My girls are all doing well.
My oldest daughter, Elizabeth, both passed the Bar and gave me another grandson in November 2009. Busy month! She and her husband bought their first house in Oakland a couple of months earlier. She did not make it to her 10 year High School reunion, because she was in labor! I will be having a bit of a jolt come December, as she will be celebrating her 30th birthday.
My middle daughter, Alexandra, lives in Fortuna. She works as a bartender at an Indian casino south of Eureka. Her son, Jamey, is 6.
Catherine, my youngest, is a scenic carpenter/designer for the B Street Theatre in Sacramento. She recently moved in with her boyfriend, and she thinks he's "the one."
My last big dive trip was to Sint Maarten in May. Very amazing place to dive! Lots of large life: sharks, rays, squid. Totally cool!
Next trip is to the east coast (Georgia and the Carolinas) in December.
Next dive trip is late May/early June to Roatan, Honduras.
See you next time!
