Update

This is long overdue, but I'd like to share with everyone what's happened these past few months.  Hopefully my photography can give you an opportunity to appreciate some of the things seen along the way.

Since the last update, my wife and I completed a three-day road trip from Birmingham, AL to Los Angeles, CA.  Here are a few of the highlights.

We made stops in Baton Rouge (LA), Dallas (TX), and Albuquerque (NW).  As we passed through New Mexico, we were stopped in our tracks because of a snow storm. First signs that this will be our first and last road trip across the country.

One of the first things my wife and I had a chance to do was taste a few of the town's treats. [Sprinkles - Beverly Hills]

If you are ever in southern California and want some authentic Vietnamese food, go to Little Saigon or "Phuoc Loc Tho" in Garden Grove.  Yes friends, he is eating a chicken embryo.

Santa Monica pier.  Everyone takes this photo, but I still had to take and post it.

Above was taken from the Kodak center.  Believe it or not, I'm 23 pounds lighter (and still going) since this photo.

We took our beagle to the dog beach at Huntington.  After chasing her across the whole dog beach, I learned that it's not a good idea to let her off her leash...ever!

Lastly, I want to say congratulations to Kevin and Shulonda Briggins on their new born baby girl.
