We headed out the door at 12:45pm, knowing that Character’s Sports Bar was not too far from where we were staying. I had seen on the map where we needed to go, and was confident we could find it. That confidence was misplaced. When we got to where I thought we needed to turn, the…

Morning Football??
This morning we slept in a bit later. Remember yesterday? Our first day on Pacific Daylight Time? Today instead of getting up at 6:30, we managed to sleep till about 7:15. 🙂 We did try to just relax in bed for a while, but that didn’t work. Instead, since it was Jen’s birthday, I offered…
My Jen
Today is my Jen’s birthday. I have known her for more than half of her life now. I have never loved her more. I love that this birthday came during an entire week of life devoted to just being together. We are out here, 3000 miles from our life, just enjoying each other, and some…
Pacific Ocean
We took a stroll up to the Pacific Ocean tonight. It’s only a few blocks from our house. (Although I think that beach is technically Monterey Bay, it’s close enough!) There’s a beach called “Lover’s Point” at the end of our road. I thought that was rather appropriate for our 10th anniversary trip. 🙂 It…

So, we’re three hours behind out here, did you know that? Cause… I do. Last night we went to bed at 9:21pm… exhausted! And then, due to me using the decorative pillow instead of the real one most of the night, I kept waking up thinking it was time to be up. It wasn’t. I…
Like Magic
We’re making our final approach (at least, pretty soon… I can feel us going lower) and even from the middle seat, the view is breathtaking. The mountains are amazing. Even the deserts are pretty amazing. What I am most amazed by though is, having done this trip several times before on the ground, the fact…
Southwest Alphabet
Well, we made the next leg of the trip, but it feels like barely! We got to Chicago just after 9:15 maybe, local time, and had to get the flight to San Jose, CA at 9:55 local time. Seems like plenty of time right? Jen took a needed pregnancy bathroomo trip, and we headed through…
And So It Begins
The alarm sounded at 5:30 this morning. But I think that was about the 20th time I had awaken since going to bed at 11:30 the night before. I think my mind had been active all night. I feel… tired. But ready to go. Our plane leaves at 8, so we’re heading out in a…
This Time Tomorrow…
So, it’s really here. For months—maybe even years?—we’ve waited for this day, this trip. We’re packing stuff up now, getting the house ready to leave. The kids are ready for their vacation, too. A whole 8 days at Grandma & Grandpa’s!! And for us? Eight beautiful days at a resort on the Pacific Ocean near…

I don’t have time today to write what I wish I could write about this day. Maybe I will have more time when we are on vacation at the end of the month? Regardless, I did not want to let the day pass without mentioning it here at GregsHead.net. I am a lot of things……
