Pre-Memorial Day in East Texas

I normally discourage starting off a weekend by waking up at 6am. Unfortunately, we didn't have much choice today. Roxanne and I went down to Oakwood, Texas for a Richmond family memorial day gathering, and we had to be on the road by 8 a.m. at the very latest in order to get there by 10 a.m. To make getting up at 6 a.m. even more fun, I didn't get into bed until almost midnight the night before.

We did get there on time (*yawn*). Afterward, we drove over to Buffalo and put new flowers for the Kirkpatrick family plot. Amazingly, we got home to Richardson a little after 5 p.m.

Catching Up

My contract at Fujitsu ended last Friday after 13 months. I hope to find something else soon.

Earlier this month, Roxanne and I visited her parents who now live in the D.C. area. While we were there, we went to the new National Air and Space Museum annex near Dulles International Airport, the World War II memorial and the National Zoo. I took several hundred pictures, over 140 at the National Air and Space Museum alone.
