A return to the land of plenty

So Bree and I left for the weekend - for a little break and also for another wedding (yes that is 2 of 3 for the summer) We headed up to Lake Tahoe for the weekend and let me tell you - if God touched some part of this great land of ours - Tahoe was it! This was the most beautiful place that I have ever seen in my life.

We went for Bree's best buddy from college's wedding - Amy. She is super cool and her new husband is the MOST laidback guy I have ever met in my whole life - and I thought I was laided back - Phil is almost too much, but he is a blast! We drove all night to get there, came in around 7:30 am on Friday. Hit the breakfast and I thought we were going to be hitting the bed and take a nap - that was until I ran into Phil in lobby of the hotel. "Hey man, we are goin Quad'n - wanna come?" After me saying no a dozen times, and Bree giving me the "but you will have fun - go..." I broke down and went - and let me tell you that it was the most fun that I have had in my whole life! We were out rip'n it up in the desert on ATV's for 3 hours or more - kick'n up dirt and burn' up under the sun!

That night was the rehearsal and the wedding was the next day - dancing, drinking, more eating and overall some of the most fun that I have ever had - I dare say ever. I told Bree that the ATV experience started a chain-reaction within myself, and it kept going the whole weekend long. I realized that I have been living my life with a lot of talking lately and not a lot of action. I have come to realize that I have been missing out on my life, now I don't have one or two things, but I have a feeling like there are things that I am missing and I am going to bring them back into the fold of my life... the outdoors, adventure, and living to the 100 percent mark every day! It was a great trip, and while Bree just hoped that I would have fun, I feel like I am changed for the better - from the inside out.

And I realized in a fuller way, just how much Bree brings the best in me out. Since we have been together I have gotten to do some of the greatest things of my life - we have had more fun, more adventures than anyone I know and they just keep on coming! I love it and every moment of my life with her - she just makes being so much more fun than it would ever be on its own!

The Neverending Battle!

So today starts a great string of events, jobs and tons of travelling!

Tonight Bree and I are leaving for a weekend of adventure in Nevada at the Lake Tahoe Resort of Cal-Neva - right on the California/Nevada border 9for thos who didn't get the name of the place) This Resort was once owned by old blues eyes, Frank Sinatra himself and we are headed there for a wedding adventure (our second of the summer - this one Bree is standing up in)

We return to LA sunday and on Tuesday I am flying to Portland to film the Spirit Mnt. Casino Commercial I auditioned for a few weeks back - get to head up there and work till Thursday and fly home on Friday - I might even be missing the show because of the flight home!? Then Saturday we close "The LA Weekly Loves Us"

A week and a half later - Bree and I are flying home for the granddaddy wedding of them all this summer - Scott and Kel's, which Bree, Nick and myself are all in!

After returning to LA right before the 4th of July, things are going to slow back down a bit. In the meantime, Bree, myself and our friend Steve are working on some shows we would like to get moving on, developing some other projects, I have a short film I signed on to act in, and I am finally dusting off Document (I knew you would not forget what I said - and that sir, is why I said it - work under pressure, just the way I like it!) So there is some really good stuff going on.

Chirs, my good friend, is out of work by means I know not, so keep him and his family in your prayers. Paul and Kerri, I hope that your Honeymoon is going great! And to all other, I love ya and miss ya!

Till next time!
