What Happened?
What the frick happened to the last 2 weeks? It's been exactly 2 weeks since my last posting (and yes Smelmooo - I made it back from Detroit alive!)
Detroit was good. I was there for work. Our office there is in an awesome old high-rise in downtown Detroit. The weather was great too (70s and mostly sunny). Of course there's pictures.
I got back from Detroit last Friday night, and then my wifey took me on a surprise trip up North for my birthday. She planned a night in Prescott, dinner at a recommended restaurant, and then a train trip on Sunday.
We had a nice, relaxing lunch up in Flagstaff and a scenic ride back South through Oak Creek Canyon and Sedona... and of course there's photos.
Dinner that night was at 129 1/2 an American Jazz Grille. It was a small restaurant recommended by my wifey's coworker (thanks Krysti!) Maybe it was because we had reservations, but they sat us right up front next to the 3 piece jazz band. It was awesome! She had a Salmon dish and I had Duck. Both were amazing! We highly recommend this place (if you should ever happen to be in Prescott, AZ!)
The next day we went up to Clarkdale to ride the Verde Canyon Railroad. I had read about this railroad a few years ago and had been trying to find occasions to do the trip. So my wifey surprised me with the trip.
Their seasonal theme was "Ales on Rails." So I had a chance to try a few nice micro brew beers.
The weather was perfect and the leaves were starting to change with plenty of shades of yellows and gold... why yes, it's funny you should ask, there are pictures!
After getting back from a nice weekend away, my wifey left for Tampa (for work for a few days.)
And that led up to this past weekend...
Halloween party at Tina & Chad's. We dresed up as Gomez and Morticia Addams. I think we pulled it off... as well as a pair of Asians could do at least. The party was fun, and their house was nicely decorated. YES, YES, YES already... there are photos.
And finally last night we celebrated Paulina and my birthdays with a picnic at Tempe town lake. Forget it - here's the freakin' photos.
