There is so much I could say that I have found myself overwhelmed and saying nothing. I don't want drag the trip out too long on the blog but there are so many things I want to share so if you get bored and don't want to comment on the 22nd Alaska post. I'll understand.
Day 1: We boarded the ship about 2:30. I was chastaised for taking a picture in the security area and warned that if I took another picture my camera would be confistakted. At 4:00PM the ship left Seattle.
I finally made it to the original Starbucks at Pike Place Market in Seattle! The Chai was good, and surprisingly it tasted just like the Chai at my local Starbucks ;) The atmosphere was not as good, not one place to sit in the original Starbucks, it's just too small and there are way too many visitors. If you want to sit, there are 17 other Starbucks located within 4 miles......no I am not kidding.
Number of Hours Worked: 279 Number of Cell Phones Minutes Used: 4284 (71.4 hours) Number of Emails Sent (Work Email Only): 4504 Number of Emails Received (Work Email Only): 4533 (shocked the sent and received is so close in numbers and not that far off from cell phone minutes either) Number of Days since I have made the blog rounds: 16 Number of Brooke "firsts" I missed: 3 Number of Nights spent away from home: 17 Number of Text messages pending my response: 14 Number of Trips to Phoenix: 0
Thanks to everyone else that sacrificed this month too, we made it, September starts tomorrow!!!!!!!!!
30 days ago I was enjoying the annual girls beach weekend in San Clemente.....seems like it was at least 3 months ago. Thank goodness I made it through August and tomorrow is September!!!!
The font on the San Luis Obispo road signs is terrible. I wonder what genius thought this would be a good font for street signs and who in the world would have approved it....and what is the name of this street?
I have never seen Kevin work so hard. In Phoenix he usually sits behind his desk and caters to my ever computer need but on the Central Coast I keep capturing him under desks, lifting boxes, trouble shooting many a computer,cleaning up trash, on the phone etc.
Today, I started this photo collection when he was done solving a problem and put his head on his hands......the rest of the pics were taken at other points during the day. Maybe tomorrow I'll video tape the sweat dripping from his brow.
Lastly, if you use this example can one determine that people in the field work harder than people in Phoenix? oooooohhhh, such a controversial question from Kim1Champ..........
