upcoming: decade number 4

Hey all,

Most people turn 30 only once, and I am no exception.  I had my big 3-0 two Saturdays ago and made a whole weekend out of it.  First, what I really wanted to do was go jump off something, so we found a spot where we'd at least be able to land in water.  It was pretty windy, so throwing Frisbees to each other (or yourself) was extremely difficult and yielded no actual pass -to-catch connections.  That afternoon and evening, I participated in my weekly Hash run.  I'll write more in depth about hashing in a future post, but for the time being, just know that it involves running through the wilderness with beer at the end.  Instead of writing further about Saturday, I decided to put the day in video form with one of my favorite all-time songs in the background.


To top off the birthday celebration, on Sunday, we hit up an all-you-can-drink champagne brunch at one of the nice hotels.  When it goes from 11am-3pm, you can take long breaks between courses and continuously switch back from sashimi and oysters to strawberries and marshmallows dipped in a chocolate fountain.  Plus, the beach is right outside, so you can just roll yourself out and enjoy your first beautiful oceanside afternoon as a 30 something.

I haven't been on Guam that long, but I had plenty of people to celebrate with, something I am quite grateful for.  After 30 years on this Earth, I've learned that wherever you are, it's good to have good people with you.

-More to come-
