As news of the incredible cold at home resounds like a sweet melody around my eardrum i am forced to smile … just a little.
Yes, you are right i do miss the snow. Yes, you are right i do miss the seasons. However, watching the SuperBowl in flipflops and boardshorts has its perks as well.
As winner of the fantasy football season i hosted a poker night on Friday thanks to a very co-operative wife and sleepy baby it was a resounding success (winning some money never hurts either).
Saturday i went kitesurfing and really shouldn’t have. The time on the water was great and nothing beats cruising across the flat water in Salinas but i just should not have gone. It was part of the reason i had to get rid of tickets to see Tiesto on Saturday night, a decision that i am still regretting. On the way home however we stopped at a fruit stand, one of a thousand we passed and for two dollars i got six mangoes, a bunch of bananas and some great avocado - not too bad really.
SuperBowl Sunday started out with a morning walk with O-towne and then playing in a hilarious four team flag football tournament to put us in the mood for the big game. It was really great a tonne of laughs and after a quick dip we went to watch the game on two projected screens with more incredible food then you could possibly imagine. My heart was with the osos in the game but i was happy to see Peyton and Dungy get one (class acts); if i had have bet it would have been on the ponies. Next year will be the Lions year…

Hard to believe Oliver is almost one, you are invited to his birthday (see invite here).

A busy weekend like that can sure you leave you exhausted:
