Weekend Trip to Nor Cal

Well honestly I can say that this will probably either be a four or three part series depending on how much that I break everything up. That and I believe that some of these things just are important enough that they deserve there own lime light. With so many emotions and going threw my mind at the moment I’m just going to put down as much as I can in this power hour I would consider this flight back to Vegas.

First off I really need to get better at carrying around my camera when I go on these things and just snapping pictures. But I guess I really don’t do it because I want them to be all professional and shit. But honestly it doesn’t even matter because no one really reads this. Like an open journal and shit. Funny thing is I took a look at my hit counter and I think March was my biggest hit month, which was like 15. LOL. Anyways lets get into this Weekend

Well it started on Thursday evening actually. Flew down into Long Beach and was greeted by my little little brother Kevin. We then headed back towards the house but needed to make a stop at Mens Wharehouse first to pick up his tux for prom.

Other then that I called it an early night as to finally hoping to sleep, which I’m doing horrible at doing as of late. Also to get ready to drive up to Nor Cal on Friday with the mother unit as well. But we weren’t leaving till about noonish so that gave me the morning to run some errands that I needed to do in the local area. Well lets just be honest here, when you don’t have a car. You don’t get around I finally got my little brother up at like 11:30ish and then we headed down to G-spot to take a look at the coche. Here I’ll let the pictures do the talking.

But we did do a couple things we finalized the color as well as all the work left to be done. So I’m super happy about all of that and I can’t wait. Two weeks and then she should be out. So well see, then time to hide her till I get new wheels as well.

And then it was off to Nor Cal with ma.



We hit some traffic along the way and it wouldn't have been a trip with my mom anywere without some Geocaching a little along the way. We finally got in around 9:30, and got some dinner with Nick and Missy before calling it night. Seeing how everyone knew Saturday was going to be a big day for sure.
Well it was the big day for the family and espeically Nick seeing how he as graduationg from Sac State. But of corse like any good fashion everyone was running late with getting the cake and blah blah blah. Funny thing is that Nick and i were just chillin at his house playing video games.. Until mom called and started screaming that we hadn't left yet. But we waited for Ben to arive and then we took off with him and Rachel. I would say more about the ceremony and what not but there was this family behind me with an anoying ass child. I wanted to say something but you know them there cultural difference or boundaries, so I said nothing but.. I did snap a couple pictures.
















After that we went to go eat as a giant bunch. Haven't had a family dinner or whatever you want to call it like that in a very long time. Thank god we got there when we did, because we basically took the place over. I mean we started with our indoor voices but after a while we just got louder and louder. It was good to finally hear some other stories about my father as well at that table. But really it was a celebration for my brother and celebrate we did. Because after dinner the youngsers of the group took off and went to the club. First off thanks Rachel for being the DD, but damn I had a blast, and need to do that that more often with my brother.

Sunday was more a relaxed day as we went to SF and walked around for a bit.
Good day ate some crab and bread. Geocahed a little and saw the strangest shit ever in a park. Had to be this weird play on evolution in the park. I mean I'm actually speechless about how to explain it. I mean they were on stilts and just all over the place, I mean the music was like someone just banging on the keyboard and other random instruments.
Overall it was a really good weekend highlighted by a great accomplishment by my brother.



About time I press enter

Slackin.. But a big update.

Fist off this is the crew from high school I mean not everyone but the ones that truly took me under the wing and took me into Lincoln. Never forget these guys. Do anything for them.

Well I haven't posted anything since i was saying I was going back to Cali what now almost 2 weeks ago.. Good news is that I now have Internet in my room and well now I can do these things right as please. Don't have to be sweating my balls off to send them. Comfort is the key..
Anyways.
Lets get an idea of what happened shall we.
The going back to Cali tied into the weekend before that. Shit was so long ago don't really care to go into the business or anything like that. Just say that I had a fuckin great time seeing toughs guys. Expensive weekend but definitely worth it though. Stayed at the Venation (bad ass hotel) and went to Body English and V Lounge during the nights. I think the best part though was the weekend after that in Cali the reason I went back..


My boy Uly tied the knot with his lady, Norma. Man I remember back in the day in high school when they got together. Funny times and great times. I'm happy that he finally did this they have been together forever and been probably threw what ever couple goes threw to make sure that it's right and well here they are.. Congrats to you both and I wish you guys the best threw the years as you guys grow together and your family goes....
The rest of the ones that I am willing to post are here.. No editing.

But that's that one..
Last week my friend tony came out and damn.. While he fuckin slept threw Friday night..
Being picked up by Syls then being drunk by 12 on Saturday was a good make up present. That and makin an ass of myself. Anyways.. Went to LAX that night, for those of you on Facebook you will notice there are some new pictures, thanks to Sylvia. But Sunday was were it was at at Tao.. Eric Morillo

Man that shit was fuckin awesome. I mean yes I was fuckin drunk.. But probably for a good hour or so I was completely alone on the dance floor, well I couldn't find my friends. Nor did I look. It felt like it was me and the music, just going nuts. I mean other things happened but lets just say I left there a sweaty hot mess. Like shirt drenched, hair done. If it was only a little louder but damn..
After that just a relaxing weekend. Recovery so to speak.
Weeks been to good as well. Just me, one Sgt. and Duffy in the shop this week. So I have had a chance to relax and just get my hands dirty. Enjoy that factor alot more then having my face stuck in a book. But meh!
Nestly comes out tomorrow. Hopefully he brings a table, coffin, mixer, with him.. Ohh I can't wait if that is true.
Till next time..

Man I need to spread these things out. Just didn't feel right leaving without a picture.
Show I'm absoluty hooked on right now..


and damn I must say Peggie Bundy looks mighty fine after all them years.

My Week Leave

Well I said that I was going to do this later and now that I’m back at Sheppard I seem to have all the time in the world to break this thing down.. This leave that I got was for a bad reason in itself, but of course I used in a happy moment as well.
Lets start with the serious and later get to the fun.

The most serious issue was family and helping my mom usher her father to the other side. Its sad to say this but my mom is excellent in making at this and her attitude while it dips in these situations, no one has a stronger mom then I. The way she can stare death in the face and remain calm and bottle so many things up is impeccable. She may have not been there for the final breath but that’s the power that she has to make them feel okay when she leaves the room for a second that is there time to go and follow her out and up. Just the same with my dad followed her right outside and up and away. While my mother and I didn’t see eye about this visit and some other things I know that with a couple phone calls and flowers she will take me back.



Llyod Schwiekard
while I didn’t know him that amazing my mother spoke about him with amazing story. My fondest memory is when I got to spend a week on his project ostrich farm in Arizona. He was a man that did a lot. A taxi driver at 21, a Merchant Marine, Army Vet, insurance salesmen, ostrich rancher, just to name a few of them. My mom always says that I look like him and I would have to agree I hope I look like him when I’m that old. Not a wrinkle on his face. An adventures man cut down to a bed in the end. It was his time because after a week of rest a man like that needed a new adventure. To grandpa and the new adventure I know your on. Just have your stories ready when we meet again.

It was also great to see my little brother and my cousin Kelly ( I don’t even remember the last time that I saw her maybe like a teenager or something like that). Man I miss my little bro. So much fun, so alike but so different, while we fight and say stupid shit I would never want anyone else.

But lets get into the fun

On the Move..

"I love Cali in the Summer Time"

Anyways I may not be there yet but i thought I would share the fact that I finally going home. I mean it may be only for a week but still it's a much needed week.. The sad part is the only real reason I'm going back is to be with family and see my grandpa for probably the last time seeing how I'm not really in Cali any more.
Currently in the Dallas/ Fort Worth TX airport.. Fuck there are alot of army guys around.. There is at least like 1 per plane.. I mean besides the Air Force people that I was with.. i have seen none and shoot I don't even see any of them..

Ahh pulling this out in Phoenix decided just to make this travel one big post..
Something I learned is that if your in uniform sometimes you upgraded to first class. Oh well would rather be super comfy then in uni..
Dallas/Fort Worth Internet is T-Mobile
Austin is Biongio something like that
Phoenix is Free!!

I'm gettin giddy knowing that I'm going to be home soon.. Strange because I'm happy to be going home but yet right when I get ff my mom wants me to come to the hospital to see Granpa. Up and down type thing. But I would rather see him then not so I'm thankful that my mom got this done for me to come home. On the last flight I received a voice mail back at Sheppard the squadron is going on lock down. Now I'm just super happy that I'm not there.. Haha.
Burbank here I come.
