It's 31 degrees outside, below freezing, and we took the dogs out for a long walk in the neighborhood since it'll be the last time we can do that for the next three weeks. In about 90 minutes we'll head out to Alexandria and stop by my brother's house before we go out to the airport to catch the first of four flights in a row to Perth, Australia. It'll be a lot warmer there, about 40 more degrees! Jonnene and I are ready for this trip...we need the break. But I have to get my shower first!
The past week has been tremendously busy, getting ready for this trip while working and maintaining some semblance of normalcy around here. I had to finish up three jobs for a local helicopter company and "star" in a video for a new website for those saddles I got pictures of a few weeks ago (hey, Paul, you'll be getting a check after I get back! Yea!). Did a couple of rides, a spin class, and lots of work around the house.
I'll try to post daily reads about our Down Under adventures along with photos. We're bringing the laptop. We're surprised that our bags are way underweight at this point...we could probably carry an extra 23 pounds between us but there's not much more I want to carry in the bags for now. It'll allow us to bring more souvenirs and gifts back for sure.
Well, that's it for now. We're off to fly around the world.
