A walk before work

Today I took a short walk before heading off to work. This is the best part about living where we do. Worship on an mp3 player is so good and refreshing. Thank you Jesus for this blessing.

This man's surf board went flying

Our local Amtrak

Carlsbad City Afternoon Walk

On Sunday we spent the afternoon walking around the City of Carlsbad. It's a nice little town just north of us.

How not to interview

So for REI I am helping with spring hiring and interviewing of new candidates. I was making a phone call yesterday and dialed up this guy to have an initial contact with him. This is how it goes.....

Hello this is Rob from REI is this Josh? (Josh) Ya this is Josh. (Rob) Good well do you have a few minutes for some questions about your resume? (Josh) I'm actually shopping right now at Best Buy. Can you call back in 30 minutes? (Rob) Sure, ill try a little later.

So I play his game and call back. Horrible interview. And the end result ....Hello Shredder to Josh's resume. Sorry Josh......

A Beautiful Wife

Last night, thanks to Groupon, we got an incredible deal on this little place in Encinitas. We had a great time. The long wait for a wife is all well worth it. A best friend, companion, lover, love being married.

50 Miler to PB

Today is Thursday and Ana and I went for a long ride to burn all our worries off. Not that we have any real worries but it sounds good for this post. We enjoyed our day.

The horses all saddled up

The cold pacific

My wifey

Torrey Pines

We had lunch with the Buckles mid way through the ride.

Souplantation

Yesterday we went to Souplantation. One of our favorite spots. This is a soup and salad buffet place were you can load up:) So good. We had the pleasure of the Bradstreets joining us. A great couple.

Oceanside Ride

Today we rode to Oceanside and had a great time seeing a nice little town that is a little bigger than our town.

This is my side income. Notice the price per gallon. This is why I bike to work

The Sprinter train

The beginning of Camp Pendleton

Take your pick

First MOD shift

So yesterday I had my first MOD (manager on duty) shift at REI. This is a shift for up coming and future managers to get the practice of running the store. It was a fun busy eight hours for me with tons of walking. For this shift give you a set of keys for the day, breif you on whats new and turn you loose.  

Noel, Ana & Sushi

So since Noel is getting married on May 26th, Ana took her out for some sushi.

Sunday Bike Ride

Yesterday we went biking with Trevor and Amber. What a great couple to hang out with. It was a fun afternoon to bike in the sun.

A Couples Party

Since we have been here in Encinitas we have been very blessed to have all these new friends. What is cool is they are all newly married and are our age. So last night we had a get-together.

What we do on a Thursday

On a Thursday we eat at our favorite mexican food shop....sooo goood

On a Thursday we talk to random locals at the beach. 

On a Thursday we pet the Dogs

On a Thursday we imagine what it would be like owning a house this big, but then are very content to only have to vacum our small place

Sometimes on a Thursday we have friends over for dinner such as sister Katie here

And on this Thursday we tried out our new projector, goodbye 1993 bulky TV

A Blessing in Disquise

So here at the Price household we are blessed. About 3 weeks ago the Impala got hit by a trash truck. We decided to pocket the money that the trash company gave us and fix the car ourselves. I just fnished it tonight. I heat welded the bumper back together, redid some wiring for the headlight, getting an alignment on wednesday and she will be ready to go.

Car still looks good for 161,000 miles on it.

A San Diego Sunset

Last Thursday we went down to the Buckles for dinner. We had to stop and take some pics of the sunset. What a picture of God's creation.
