Costura

A Angie le ha dado por bordar todo lo que encuentra. Me ha hecho unas camisas muy bonitas. Ya publicare fotos cuando las tenga.

Esta es una carretera de Nevada, de las muchas que recorrimos.

Que recuerdos los de mi viaje en mi viejo coche azul, el Pontiac Sunbird. Uno de los mejores coches que he tenido. Cristina y yo hicimos miles de millas en dos semanas.

Otro igual, pero en blanco.

Fw: Fwd: Nuestra vida en logos...

Elecciones... que aburrimiento

No dejo de sorprenderme que muchos de los mensajes de la gente que me escribe desde España tienen que ver con las elecciones de Estados Unidos... la verdad que no se que interes pueden tener algunos en que gane una u otra persona aqui, si a España la van a tratar igual.

Yo creo que mas deberiamos los españoles en arreglar nuestra casa primero y dejar de meternos en la de los demas.

Mucho tiempo sin escribir

Mucho tiempo sin escribir, parece mentira que pase mas y mas tiempo y uno no se decide a poner unas letras aqui. Hemos estado un poco enfermos por culpa de la gripe y sobre todo nos ha dado al estomago, pero parece que nos vamos a reponer.
