The 60s in the Summer of 08

This is a cool feat! Wezul and I have 3...that's right...three close family members who will turn the big 60 this summer. Wezul's mom and aunt will be 60 on June 7th and my dad will turn 60 on July 15th.

One of the three isn't handling it too well (the one with a Y chromosome). Maybe because he has had to endure constant nagging from me. :)

Love ya - mean it

Pictures

We took over 1,100 pictures in San Francisco. If some of you checked the web galleries, it ended up taking three online albums to hold them all. Additionally, Mackie (the macbook) was unable to back itself up wireless. That is a lot of space when you are talking about a digital SLR as well as our point n shoot camera.

This afternoon/evening, I quickly sorted through the pics and cut the pics down to 135+. This gallery will remain "open" until Wezul has time to permanently transfer them to Wezul Web.

Enjoy our San Francisco Web Gallery.

There has been a few issues with viewing the pictures in the gallery. You won't need a mac, but we have been told that is states something to the effect of "this isn't the standard browser, do you want to use your current browser"...just click yes.

New Addiction

So, it is no surprise that I will not be blogging as much as I have this past week. It makes a lot of sense since we are now home. However, I have this strange attraction to this little site. Seriously, I want to blog as much as I check our bank accounts. This is very, very sad.

We do have another blog on our website Welcome to the Wezul Web, but there are some issues with our current blog:

1. no direct link to it
2. it is a pain to update
   
3. Wezul hasn't showed me how to do it - nor did I care to learn
   

This lovely blog is much, much easier to update. You set up an account, tweak the settings, type your random thoughts, click a button, and there it is.

With that said, I will continue to update what is going on with us - including Alexander. I know...I need to get a life, but the geek in me is loving this as Wezul would say - and he loves it to.

Please realize, this will not in no way replace Wezul Web. It will only enhance it and be updated in a more timely fashion simply due to the ease of it.

Over the next week or so, the pictures will be tweaked and might disappear from the web for a brief bit of time.  Wezul hopes to put together a "highlight" reel of our trip that will be available on Wezul Web.

Just remember how long it took him to finalize our wedding video (2007).

We're Home

Wezul and I have finally made it home. We landed around 11:30 pm give or take 15 minutes. We got home shortly after midnight.

To say we had a blast, that is an understatement. The buildings are amazing, the streets are insanely steep, the food is as diverse as the people who live there, and the climate was perfect.

I don't know about Wezul, but this was by far the best vacation we have taken together in my opinion. The only thing we didn't get to do was get the opportunity to go see a Diggnation podcast being done live.

Apple Headquarters

As many of you know, last year, Jason was finally convinced to go to the dark side.  His transformation is now complete.  We drove to 1 Infinite Loop in Cupertino.  Hahaha - Windows has lost a crusader.  Unfortunately for us, the Company Store was closed because of the holiday.  That is one more reason for us to return to the area in the future.  However, Mackie the Macbook did make it back to its homeland.  Unfortunately, Mackie was unable to get out of the car and experience the greatness that is the land of Apple...maybe next time.  Laaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!
