Seems like I’m settling in to about one update a Month. I’d like to do more but you know, maybe it just takes a month to build up something worth saying.

Big news this month is that we finally only have one Mortgage! Our previous house closed on Friday and we received a big ‘ol cheque. Though we were never stretching things to any sort of limit, its still a relief to not have to worry about it selling. Seeing it go was a little bit melancholy, really. You only get one first house and it was ours for 8 years. It was a good place to live and we had a lot of good times there. I hope it makes the new folks as happy as it did us.

I’ve been asked once again to be the official photographer for the Targa Newfoundland rally so preparations are under way. As a big change this year I’ll be doing the job without my co-driver as Daphne will be spending the week in someone else’s car. Its a great opportunity for her, it’ll definitely be interesting shooting her from the sidelines.

The last few weeks have been pretty busy, even not counting the process of selling the old house. Two weekends ago was the 15th annual Slalom at Slemon in Summerside, PEI. After a few crazy weeks I just wanted to go and relax so I decided to forgo driving and jut shoot for the weekend. While I enjoyed myself, I really should have got in a car. By Sunday I was really regretting my decision. Oh well, c’est la vie. No Slalom for me this year. Daphne drove ‘Leon the Neon’ with very respectable times for the weekend.

Pretty much as soon as we got back from PEI was back on the road, this time to Indianapolis for business. A quick trip involving 3 hours on the tarmac in Toronto because of lightning, getting a VW Bug Convertible for rental with no headlights when the Avis girl saw my reaction at being offered a Grand Marquis and a trip to a great little Camera store to buy some goodies.

I’m getting used to Indianapolis, I get sent there a fair bit, but I’m really ready for a proper vacation. Too bad there isn’t one on the schedule.
