It's been awhile...

Oh wow...

It's been awhile since any posts to this thing.

What's happened recently, let's see. Travel wise, I went on a week long trip with Mary to Oaxaca, Mexico, then a few weeks after I met up with some of my family in Maryland to celebrate my grandparent's 60th wedding anniversary, and Garrett and I recently visited Minnesota for a cousin's wedding. 

Garrett is hard at work as a physical therapy aide and clerk at a physical rehab office in North Davis, as an afterschool assistant director in South Davis, and as a physical trainer at a health club in town. He's also focusing on strength and conditioning training with sports groups, as well as developing a community boot camp program.

I am still at the lab, working with fruit and insects and helping out with some tests to develop a fumigant that will kill certain pests so we can export oranges and grapes to Australia without them having to worry about unwanted insect invasions. I also took up a second job at a cafe across the street, so I can hone in on some food service skills so I have a broader scope for employment when we move to Hawaii. So, I'm now also a dishwasher, salad maker, cashier, barrista, food runner, table busser, and closing shift clean the whole cafe up person. 

It will be a busy summer. Garrett likes to point out that it is the beginning of his never ending summer. Lucky guy.
