Maybe I’m just noticing this, but we’ve been living among some strange people. It’s probably a good test of my patience, but I’m wearing down. Sara and I count how often the "wolf lady" takes her dogs out for a walk (at least 12 times a day). Today, Sara noticed that she was joined by [...]

So, like I said, we’re excited to get out. It wasn’t just one thing that did it. No, it was all the little things. We’re like frogs in a pot of boiling water… Please examine exhibit A: This is our bed. I’m getting closer and closer. Click on a picture to see a really close up image. So, [...]

Okay, that was a little extreme. I know. Either it’s just that we’ve been here a month now and we’re past our capacity or something. We’re grateful that we’ve had a place like this to stay. We have had more at the Extended Stay: Austin, NW than most others in the world. But, you can’t imagine [...]
