I can't believe how the days fly by sometimes. Summer is gone and now it's fall, my favorite time of the year. We've been busy here at the West A House. School and work, going here and there, meeting new people.
It's been a busy past month since I was here last, the Missus and I went to Dave Matthews at Qwest Center a few weeks ago. It rocked as usual. They played a new song, "Black Jack", it was awesome. I hope the studio version turns out as good as the live version was.
A week after Dave, we went back to Omaha and met some folks at Mt. Fuji for the first and hopefully annual "Mid-West Mai Tai Meet-Up". We had dinner in a Tatami (tea) room with three other tiki-minded couples then migrated downstairs to the Mai Tai lounge for drinks and conversation. Another couple joined us in the lounge and for a first time event, 10 people made for a nice party. I look forward to doing it again!
Have a good week and if you get tomorrow off, have a nice Columbus Day.
And now for some pictures!!
