Now we're cookin' with solar power!

[BIG SIGH]

We made it.

After about 32 hours in the car, I am officially in LA. Or, Carson, technically-- which is just South of LA and just North of "Compton: Next 3 exits".

I don't quite understand LA suburbs. Not yet, at least. But, there is a sign on the front door of my new residency that warns against leaving valuables in the car. Also, I was advised upon check-in that guest info cards could be viewed by law enforcement agents...should law enforcement agents ever desire to view them.

But, I'm not particularly worried. Mostly because I don't think the DMB CDs in my car will be of any great interest to anyone here. And, because my guest info card is decidely void of anything juicy. Just the facts, big brother.

The roadtrip to LA turned out to be a total blast. Amy and I navigated like pros and experienced no major hiccups. Okay-- so Amy did most of the navigating, but I kept the music playin' and the pictures snappin'. You have to stick with what you know, right?

Anyway, it feels good to be in LA. God has been awesomely-faithful to me so far and I know He has something in store for me here-- I know He has something for me to learn...

But, for now, I must find some sleep. It's been a long several days, for sure.

Good night LA.

I'm packin' my bags and headin' west

Not because it's typical of CA, but because it will remind you of all the
wonderful things there are in life.
Because that's what eating cotton candy does."

Hello!

Yes. I know I have been very absent from blogspot lately. I'm a deadbeat blogger, indeed.

But, I am attempting to "reconnect" in an effort to "keep in touch" over the next couple of months. Tomorrow, I will be temporarily relocating to Long Beach, Cali for a travel nursing assignment. From there, I will try to keep this site updated with pictures, anecdotal stories and, perhaps, the occasional tale of 'lesson learned'.

For now, good bye to my family, to my friends and to this fair city that I am very much enamored with....



Until we meet again...
