Dad breaks foot

Well we are down in FL visiting and Dad went golfing and came home and had to get the pollen off the top of his truck. So in his golf shoes he was standing on door sill to reach the top and slipped and broke his foot.

We can't take him anywhere. Pretty soon we will have to keep him away from all sharp objects!

Positive Trip to Charlotte

Well, last week I made a trip over to Charlotte to meet with a couple of engineering firms.  I finally just said that I was going to start calling firms and letting them know that I was coming over and would like to setup a meeting with them.  I had two meetings and they both went well.  One of them I think that I have good chance at getting.

While there I also received a call from the City of Gastonia which is near Charlotte for a phone interview on Monday.  Things are looking up and glad that there are some great opportunities.  I made some really good contacts and think that something good is going to come out off it all.

Day in Asheville

We went to Asheville today to get me some new dress clothes. Really a suit for some meeting/ interviews that I have next week in Charlotte. I am hoping to get a couple more scheduled on Monday.

After the joy of shopping we went to the Mellow Mushroom. It's a beautiful day.

Yesterday

It was another beautiful day. I went to church early to run sound. Then we came home and finished the kitchen cabinets. After that Connor and I were sword fighting outside. If you got hit on then leg than you had to hop on one. If you got both legs you had to sit down. I think I was worn out.
