Jacksonville, Florida

I haven't been able to blog for the past two weeks because we've been in Florida without an extra computer so I've been planning in my head what I will write when I am able to. Unfortunately that time has arrived and I can't remember all of my super clever literary art.

I guess first things first. I got my own laptop -- my first since 1998 (you know, when the internet was just catching on)! It's also my first computer since 2005 so I'm soooooooo (with many more "o's") excited. I needed something to type on that wasn't being used all day by my better and far more work invested half. Hey, I have to check email, facebook, and, um, my blog for comments.

Anyway, we're in Florida! The weather is so nice, especially when compared to Boise. Today I took Morgan to the zoo and took off my jacket because it was the PERFECT temperature where you don't get too hot in the sun or too cold in the shade.

Why are we in Florida, you ask (well, you probably don't ask that but I will continue with the explanation)? The short answer is "for work." The longer answer is because this rich guy with an extra million dollar condo laying around wanted to start something business wise with Tom and invited him to spend a month in Jacksonville in the condo (with a personal elevator... on the 25th floor... overlooking the river, but I digress). We thought it would be a great opportunity to get out of the cold so we took the offer. So Tom has had a few meetings with this guy and they are getting their thing up and running while Tom spends the rest of the days working from this amazing office area and I do stuff like go to the zoo and the park and the beach with Morgan.

I had my first experience eating at Morton's. It's a very high end steak house and I got the fillet mignon and lobster, which was so fantastic I'm putting it on my blog. Seriously, I can't stop thinking about this beef! So, if you have the opportunity to go, along with a couple hundred extra dollars to spend, get the surf and turf.

Well, Tom doesn't want me to post this until we get home so robbers don't know we are not home. I guess that means that nobody will end up reading this. Too bad. It was inspired writing.

She did pretty well on the plane. I still am not excited to get back on, but it wasn't too bad.

Ready to go out and enjoy the warmer weather.
