Been slacking on my blog updates lately mostly due to technical difficulties! Brooke came out to see me for the first 9 days of June- then after that I house & dog sat for Richard and Alex while they were on their honeymoon, sadly with no internet access. So the long post to update you all begins...
Brooke and I had a great time while she was out here. Minus the fact I had to be at school during the day, a perfect vacation. The first weekend we headed up to Topanga Canyon to hike all day and spend the night at a bed & breakfast. Hike was gorgeous and the B&B very cute nestled in the hills. Brooke treated me to the best meal of my life that night as well. All local and organic meat and veggies. Amazing. The next day we rented a Harley for the day and cruised along the beach to Santa Barbara and Ojai. Beautiful scenery as usual. Then during the week we had great dinners at various places with the friends I met out here, one big dinner on the beach with the sunset, and Brooke got her first taste of CrossFit. I think she liked it and am looking forward to continuing it with her at home. Friday night Becky and Dan came and stayed with us, had dinner and hung out. Was great to see them. Then Saturday was Alex's and Richard's big day, and then she was home on Sunday. Quite the jam packed 9 days for Brooke! We didn't get to do some of the tourist stuff I was hoping- but she definitely got a look into a day in the life of Tim out here...
As for house sitting for Alex and Richard- it was very nice to get out of the hotel for a bit! Pippa (their dog) was fun- makes me start to think long and hard about when to get my next dog... They have a beautiful house and was the perfect place to watch the Heat win the title!
School update is that I am doing well. Feels like it is SLOWLY going by- but 18 days left! Can't wait to be done! Got a 100% on my big test today for Block II. Maybe be able to get the Honor Grad... We will see! Below are some pictures of the last couple weeks.
