Shalom, Y'all

i'm blogging earlier than usual because we're at a wi-fi hotspot in this tiny christian coffee shop and i don't want to try blogging on my phone and not being able to upload it because edge network is terribad. ;-X anyway, yesterday's post didn't make it clear but the title was inspired by the fact that nic took me to the largest open-face granite quarry in the world yesterday. my buelification video was about that, actually, but i haven't uploaded it yet because it would necessitate us being at this coffee shop for just way too long.

i'm going to have to put up 3 videos tomorrow on buelification and just call it good. i'm still shooting and editing them, but i have no way of getting them up. also, it's becoming more taxing to manage to fill my commitment to do one every day that i had imagined, especially when i'm out of town. in town it's so easy to just get it done quick, and my videos usually take no longer than an hour for the alternate channel. i probably won't continue to upload every day past june.

anyway, today we went hiking in the morning at an awesome place called 'pilot mountain' which had a great view. it was a good hike, and i'm realizing that i need to hike more. i like it. christin kept up really well, and i'm super proud of her. she's amazing! after that, we went home for a nap after a coma-rific waffle house brunch, then it was off to shelton winery for a tour and tasting which was interesting. tour was kind of dull, but the wine was tasty. the sweeter wines were really good.

so yeah! that pretty much brings you up to speed with what's going on over here. i'm sitting here listening to some good and some bad christian music, nic and laura are on their computers behind me getting some work done with the blessed internets, and christin is in the corner on the 'comfy chair' sipping her spiced chai and reading her book on fertility - highlighter in hand. good times. it's been a good day today, despite my tooth really hurting me again. it comes and goes. anyway, church tomorrow and the long drive home. excited to see nic preach!
