Year in Review

I guess some people still read this blog, and I haven't updated in a while, so here goes:

2007 was pretty good, overall.  I'm going to my first NFL game this saturday with Riad (Pats at Giants, going for 16-0).

I got a fair bit of travel in:

- Billings, MT, in January, for a research trip for work, alone.  Made a side trip to Badlands NP and Wind Cave NP (and Wall, SD).  Also Devil's Tower, WY.

- Phoenix, AZ in late january? (not sure of the date)  Saw Helen and Jeremy.  Side trip to Las Vegas, NV, for 12 hours.

- South FL in early March with Joe.  Saw the Sox in Ft. Myers, stayed with Joel in Naples, went to Miami Beach and Everglades NP.

- Seattle, WA for work, alone.  Side trip to Vancouver, BC, to see Grace, and Eugene, OR, to see Anna.

- Sam's houses in NH and ME, late summer, with the Fort Awesome crowd.

- Vegas, July, Jeremy, Chris, and others.  DefCon.

- New York, NY, early September (driving/train).  Saw Shea Stadium.

- Dublin, late September, to see Joe.  Side trip to Oktoberfest in Munich.

- Cleveland (driving), mid October, with Chris.  ALCS games 3 and 4 (ouch).

- Phoenix, late October, met Helen, Jeremy, and Adam.  Side trip to Denver.  WS game 4 with Girl Sam (not ouch).

- Indianapolis, IN, for work, with Yuran, met Jeremy and Alex, early November.

- Toronto, ON and Niagara Falls, ON, early November, with Shuang.

- Ireland, met the rest of the family, mid November.  Extended layover in Chicago, IL, on the way back.

- East Rutherford, NJ (driving, with Riad), later this week.


Other interesting parts of the year:  Gautham and Sam moved out (and away), Ellen and Bigtime moved in.  I went to my first NHL game and a couple of Celtics games.  Went to 6 Sox playoff games (3 home, 3 road), including WS games 1 and 4.  Work went well.  My Corsica blew 3 cylinders, so I sold it for parts and bought an Altima.  I replaced our bootleg cable setup with a digital OTA setup.  Started flying lessons over the summer, but the busy travel schedule in the fall made it hard to continue.  Want to continue soon.
