So, I just finished watching Barack Obama win the election, and judging by the reaction from most of my friends online, everyone seems to be pretty excited about it. It is pretty amazing to be how far this country has come in even the last 50 years. 50 years ago, a person like Obama, most likely would not have been allowed to sit next to me in a restaurant in parts of this country. And now, he’s going to be our next President. Just amazing!
I, for one, hope that with all his smooth talking, (and you can’t argue that this guy isn’t smooth) he can truly bring change, and get the US back to being the country that most of us want it to be. There is still a lot of division here, and if he can, somehow, get everyone on the same page, and work together, I feel that great things can happen.
On the flip side there are those that think he could, possibly, be the worst thing to ever happen to this country. Time will tell. Anybody has got to be better than Dubya has been. Anybody!
Congrats Barack!

Is it just me, or whenever I see Obama and Biden on stage together, I REALLY want them to break into a karaoake version of “Ebony and Ivory” ?!

Ok… Now that the election is done, we can all get back to having fun 🙂

So, what have we been up to? Oh you know. Busy as ever… we are actually taking this weekend off to head up to Solvang, and the wine country up there. It will be nice to just take some time to ourselves, and relax a bit. The weather should be nice, and maybe I will actually get some Appleskivvers from a restaurant in Solvang. I’ve never had them, and they always seem to be closed when I’m up there!
