Dec 1st - Happy Cyber Monday and welcome to December

December 1, 2014
Greetings all.  Welcome to December where the countdown is on until Xmas.  Hope everybody had a pleasant Thanksgiving and survived Black Friday and all the chaos involved there.  

We,, yesterday, I took my guy out mountain biking for the first time.  He has a brand new mountain bike that has seen very limited riding since he got it and I haven't been out much either on mine so the weather has been perfect so off we went.  He had a great time, no crashes and seemed to enjoy himself.  He needs to work on his cardiovascular some but overall I think he enjoyed it and will ride with me more.  We're gonna take it slow and ease him into the whole ordeal because it's definitely not something that you can do at the drop of a hat.  You need to have some idea for what you're doing and able to handle a bike.  It's nothing like riding on the street and I was very impressed by his ability to keep going.  I'm very proud of him.

Had a few defining moments this weekend too that instilled in me to keep on moving.  Nothing like getting that much needed kick in the ass to get it moving.  Looking ahead now and keepin on keepin on.  lol

Have a great start to the month and we'll be off to Disney soon to view the lights and decorations.  NPH is as Epcot.

Nov 24th - Hello again

November 24, 2014
It has certainly been a while since I've posted on here.  Made a few adjustments and changes and now we are back and going forward.  Had some down time due to other issues but I guess the best medicine for anything is to get back on the path.  Well, the path has been found and I'm focusing on what needs to be done now. 

So quite a bit has happened over the last month plus and while I may be behind a bit, gonna update this now more occasionally.  Also looking at changing our format.

So w...

Oct 16th - San Diego!!!

October 17, 2014
Wow!  What can I say but awesomeness!!!  That is the time while I was in San Diego.  Was anxious as hell before the plane landed cuz I wanted it to hurry the hell up.  Saw so many sights, went to so many of my old places and was able to satisfy my palate with some food only found there.  Some real Japanese, In and Out Burgers, Submarina, O's and some original Mexican and a few other places.  Good times indeed.  I definitely need to get back out there.  See what the future may hold.

Until then....

Sep 28th - The time is here

September 29, 2014
Here we are now, officially in Halloween season.  I love this time of year and am looking forward to going to the theme parks. 

Baseball season is over and even though my Braves didn't make the playoffs, I'm happy that the Yankmees didn't make it either. 

Mom is getting better and will be going home soon too.

Short and to the point update.  Will have more to post later.

Sep 17th - A wet and blizzardy day

September 18, 2014
First off, Happy 15 1/2 birthday to my guy.  So in turn, we took a trip up to Walt Disney World and spent the day at Blizzard Beach.  This is an amazing water park that is themed to a blizzard that hit in Florida.  We got there in the rain when it opened and almost closed out the park.  By the end of the day, we had ridden every slide at least once and most of them several times.  It was a great day spent with my guy.

On the home news, mom is in rehab now and seems to be getting better every d...

Sep 11

September 11, 2014
Well today is a rough day and not that it's September 11th.  It's for a personal reason.  Yesterday, my mother blacked out and fell.  In the fall she fractured her neck and roughed up her face to include a 14 stitch gash in her forehead.  It was rough to see her the way she was in the hospital.  However, I'm glad I came back when i did because her and my father are going to need a lot of help over the next few months.  Keeping the positive thoughts and vibes going out to her.

Sep 5th - Last night in Germany

September 5, 2014
Well, here we are.  My last night in Germany and my last post from Germany.  It's been a long 3 months but it's also been a very good time.  I have to say that I took full advantage of this opportunity in ways of exploring, traveling and making a name for myself.  There were times it was hard work but there were also times there was easy work and the weekends more than made up for it. 

I've gone to 4 other countries outside of Germany.  Switzerland, where I visited Zurich and a few other town...

Sep 1st - Awesome weekend and hello September

September 1, 2014
The BBP welcomes you to September.  Amazing how fast August flew by and now we're here.  In less than a week, the BBP tour of Europe will be coming to an end.  While I am sad to a degree, I am also certainly very happy to get back home.  Got things to do and it's also coming up to my favorite time of the year so lots of stuff is happening.

Onto this past weekend.  WOW!!!!  That's all I can say at this time.  I went to Austria and spent a couple of days in an area known as Hintertux.  This has ...

August 27th - Work? What's that?

August 27, 2014
What do they mean I have work to do today?  I swear, what am I?  A machine?  I've only had not much to do for the past month and been going to places like Prague, Europa Park, castle exploring and other things.  How am I supposed to find time to work while I'm busy with other things? 

Actually it's nice to have some things to do again as it's been very frustrating doing trivial work and busy jobs.  Got a few more days of actual work left and I will be on my way home.  YAY!!! 

Anyways, heading...
