happy march 17th

Ryan called me towards the end of my day and asked me to meet him in Sugarhouse for dinner... which ended up to be a really fun evening with our friends, celebrating St. Patricks day with lots of people around, fun music, and a great crowd. Cheers to the Irish and Best of LUCK till the next go 'round!

Since I have known Ryan, I have traveled to Palm Desert with him in March to visit the Indian Wells Tennis Tournament that they host down there each year. It has now become our tradition and something that we anxiously await each spring. We just returned from our trip and here is a little re-cap...

we had a wonderful trip, but like most getaways, it was way too short

until next time... we will anxiously look forward to our visit in '10...
