Panama City. Sunny sunny, home sweet home. Yada yada yada. It was awesome though.

We didn't hardly get to spend enough time together. (COME VISIT!)

New Years was spent in Pensacola. My old collegiate stomping grounds. I love these kids.

Next an unexpected detour to my home town in New York. As you can see the snow was flowing freely and quite heavily, and there I was packed and strictly prepared for a FLORIDA vacation. You could imagine my grief.

Finally made it home, just in time to see Obama become President. Glorious.

Mt. Hood. Gotta love Portland. Urban jungle to your left, beautiful mountains and forest to your right. It's the best of both worlds really.
This past week I did the most Republican thing imaginable. Luke took me out to the mountains to shoot the guns with him, a co-worker, and his wife. It was my first time shooting guns (I prefer the art of sword fighting) but I didn't do half bad, hit a clay pigeon, and didn't drop the gun. So mission accomplished. The mountains were pretty righteous too, snow was full on and beautiful, thank god for 4 wheel drive.
sexy.
