4 Days to the Valley of the Sun

Getting more and more excited as our trip west is coming this wednesday.........but it is bittersweet as my daughter Liz is coming home from England during the trip's time frame. Hopefully we will be able to get together when we return on the 5th since Liz doesn't go back to London until the 12th.

With Jeanine and Craig being pregnant, needless to say, we are excited at the pending arrival of our 3rd grandchild........(Think Pink, everybody.......we need a little girl to spoil). Of course the baby is due in January.........when we had planned to be in AZ in a new home......I guess that wanting is not necessarily having.........glad I haven't quit my pro shop job!.....lol.

Marti has been busy all day with her sisters going through and dividing the items of their Mom's house. It is a tedious process for those who have never been through it.It was easier for me as an only child; anything relating to sibling dynamics is alien to me.

There is a part of me that wishes that I was not bowling the USBC nationals with my best mate......the timing has given me a pass on the first 4 tournaments of the senior tour........and a return trip to vegas 3 weeks after getting home from this one. I honestly did not think that I would ever be able to compete on tour as I had hoped....surprised the hell out of me that everything I have worked on over the past 10 years are now in place......AMAZING.......I can compete, once again.This could be the beginning of a wonderful friendship......me and winning!

I will report on our adventures in the valley and in Vegas and Laughlin. No matter what, we will have fun.......my wife has been working doubles for the past 2 years between the theater and the bowling center.........that stops when we get back from vacation. I am so looking forward to evenings together,dinners together, sleeping at a semi normal time and enjoying our love and life together.

Speak to you all from Mesa, AZ.
