Thanksgiving
Wow... its been nearly a month since my last post. I really fell behind. Its been a busy couple of weeks. I spent the first two weeks of November dealing with my insurance company. Luckily everything from my car theft was covered, even a rental car to get around with while my car was in the shop.

Work is finally starting to slow down... so what does that mean? I start working on more consulting work, yep... life never slows down for this guy. I have a few new projects I am working on and some exciting programs coming up.

November 7th was a big day in Michigan. The voters passed a proposal to eliminate affirmative action, we re-elected a governor who clearly has done a poor job, and Heather got one year older. We went to a fancy dinner in Jackson and enjoyed some random political celebrations, wine, and a just time to be out and relax.

Yesterday my parents returned from Bolivia. I am glad they made it back without problems. The political situation down there is less then stellar again. We will have a fun holiday season traveling around and seeing each other and catching up with my family.

Tomorrow I head to Chicago for Thanksgiving. I will be in Chicago until Tuesday when I head to New Orleans for a conference. Then next Friday I fly back to Chicago for my Brothers wedding. Its going to be a busy travel time (nothing new for me) and some fun family get together. I am really looking forward to Miguel's wedding... the first of us to get married. Kinda crazy... we are all grown up now.

Hopefully during this 10 days of non-stop traveling I will find some time to post again. I need to get some new photos up. Keep checking back... I will be updating this again soon.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
