So, most of you know that I moved to Tex-ass to follow the girl of my dreams and ended up spending my first engine fund on a wedding ring. Best decision i've ever made BTW (buying Black Betty was a close second though:P) Well things are going great, and our first wedding anniversary is coming up on Jan 2nd, err or was it the 3rd, ehh close enough...

Sarah is in grad school at UT getting her doctorate in Audiology (hearing studies, hearing aids, and hearing testing) and only has another 5 months left. At which point we are headed out of this desert wastland and back to the beautiful pacific north west... At least that was the plan.

Just 3 days ago Sarah just got a job offer in Honolulu, Hawaii. Cool

So as sad as i am that i will not be headed back to the rain, the cold, and the evergreen trees. I'll just have to make due with sandy beaches, palm trees, and surf. So if anyone wants to come visit, we will be moving in may.

Talk about an awesome Christmas present
~JAKE Very Happy

Congrats! Id love to work there for a little bit. Ever been off the beaten path? Mosquitos are huge and the natives arent too friendly. But if you can go surf any day you want to it would be worth it. And i wouldnt bring betty, cars have a tendancy to rust there.

Congrats on the good news, rain isn't the same there as it is here lol its not freezing and you can tell when its coming (without looking at the sky)

The novelty wears off after a few months to a year I started going stir crazy after you do all the fun stuff but its still awesome

Wow, island living. Aloha!

Very expensive living index over there.

Most guys I know that worked over there were ready to go home after a year. I guess it would be different if you dreamed about living on a island in the pacific and it was your goal. It is expensive, you are on island ( even though they are large) and everything costs alot more than on the mainland.

Yeah, we are there for a year at min, but there is a chance that we stay if we really like it. At this point, I'm not taking black betty along. I'm going to have to twist his arm real hard but my dad us going to hang on to it and drive it for the year. Wink

I'll be starting my job search soon and figuring out how to move our stuff there.

When I moved to Illinois I didn't own a single thing worth the cost of shipping. I just bought stuff when I got there. That would be especially true if I had moved to Hawaii.

Order some lauwiliwilinukunukuoioi and let us know if it is worth the effort to say it.

And remember that "poo poo" is something you eat, and "shi shi" is something you poo. Very important to know the difference.

If you need someone to harbor black betty for awhile, I could be persuaded to take care of her. Very Happy

Or at the very least go over to your parents house and put a few miles on her every once in awhile.

Man does that sound dirty...

So instead of Dukes themed pics are we going to see some of the Magnum variety now? Laughing
