Why I love fathers day

I have the greatest family in the world. One hot wife, two beautiful girls, and the best boy in all the world.

Bye Mr. Cool Truck

Well, I finally had to turn my truck in. It's a few weeks early, but there is no reason to pay insurance on 3 cars. It was a good truck, I am going to miss it as I am now driving Meg's old Accord. Time to see how long I can go without a car payment. I have had one since I got off my mission.

Dining at the Space Needle

Meg's parents got off a cruise in Seattle so we drove up to see them. We had a good time walking around the city. When we were done we had lunch at the space needle.

You got a citation!

On our way back home from Seattle, we stopped at subway and saw this car. Our family had a gold Chevy Citation. It was one of those cars we loved to hate. For a long time we would argue who would go in it. Being that we lived in Texas and it was our only car with a/c:
I can't believe someone would spend the money to make one of these into a tuner car.

Got Atom?

I was driving today and what do my eyes behold but an Ariel Atom. A street legal go-kart. I have seen them in magazines, but never on the street.

the week comes to a close

Would anyone like some tube worm for dinner?

See they do sell Chevy's in the land of Korean Cars.

We had the last day of rollouts. It is an amazing process to see how this all works, it sure is fun. I tried to take more shots of the area from the car. We are starting to get some of the "yellow sand" pollution that comes in from China. That is what is making the sun so red in the last shot.

We are all beat, we went to dinner with the factory guys to a "hot pot" a big boiling pot of water that they just start throwing stuff in. I had clam, shrimp, octopus, and all sorts of crazy stuff. I will post the picture from eating when I get back to the states and I can turn my phone on.

This place is amazing, but I can't wait to come home and be with my family. I'll see ya in a few hours. well after you finish with your Friday... my Friday is done.

Back to T2 for the factory tour

I saw this sign at the end of my tour. I think we will have to copy it and use it back in Beaverton.

I really got an education in shoe making today. I never knew how much hand work goes into making a single pair of shoes. I always thought that most of it was done by machine, the machines are used, but there are sooo many people that do the work.

I not only have a greater appreciation for my job but also for the people that work here and how hard they have to work. How silly little design changes mean hours and hours of work have to be re-done to move a line 1mm in some cases... how much waste comes from the silly little details. I wish I could share with you guys all the images that I took but I will just show you what I can over the web.
