Leaving on a Jet Plane

[joegoda]

Tomorrow morning, sometime around still dark, Shannon and I will be taking off for beautiful Punta Cana, in the Dominican Republic. It's raining there. It will be raining for a week. The same week we will be there, interestingly enough. Still, I expect there to be adventure and fun and all sorts of things to see and do. There will be pictures, which I may post if it weren't so time consuming to label all of them. I haven't even posted the pictures from Alaska yet and that was a year ago!

July 6th was the day we got married in Seattle Washington, which makes this our anniversary trip. That was a story in and of itself, which I guess I should write someday. Here's hoping that this adventure will be less stressful!

I would be lying to say that I'm not a bit concerned about this trip. The Cancerian native in me is nervous because it's far, far away and who knows what will happen. The old man in me says "Eh, so what? Enjoy it, kiddo, cuz it may the a once in a lifetime thing."

I guess that's my message to you all.

I'll see you when I get back. Oh, and I'm feeling a strong desire to see my Death Cloak. Just saying.

Play nice and try to enjoy the ride. That's what I'm going to be doing.

As a fellow Cancerian, I understand worrying about it being so far from home. However, if you didn't go (and you're like me), you'd probably end up regretting it. I think you guys will have a lot of fun!

Yes and no. or, in other words, no.

Really? So quick? What's going on up your way? I want to do something local.

On Saturday is a house concert that is DJ and I's new band's debut. ;0)

I agree with the old man.

Enjoy yourself. Play in the rain. :)

I did. I even rode the surf in and gained a very roasted leg of chester.

Have fun!

Embrace the joy, dear Chetster. Be lavish in your love.

Life can't throw anything at you in this coming week that you can't handle. And if it tries, you'll take it as it comes. So forget that noise, and wallow in the magic of your lady.

Love you!!

May the trip bring you many, many oranges.

There are some oranges that are pretty bitter, Peddler. There were some bright spots, some orangy oranges. I had an adventure. How bout that?

Happy Anniversary! I hope you both have a relaxing marvelous time! If you get rained in, tell her a story! Love to you both!

hahahaha. Thanks for the thought, Sherry, dear. You would have had fun there, I'm sure. It was cool and adventurous and frustrating and teeth grinding and just plain old adventurous. Yes, two types of adventure in one.
