Early today there was an earthquake in Wells Nevada. This is a shot of the Webicorder (Seismogram) station that is really quite close to my office.

We didn't feel anything but Ashley said that Radar is acting really funny...


 

It's History Now

Today is a big day in the Cellular world... Officially today is the first day that cellular companies can turn down and shut off their analog cellular systems.

I remember selling the Classic II at one of the mall carts I worked at for a few year. It was actually a pretty good phone. I also remember when "Digital" launched and had new cool features like Caller-ID. Anyway back then phones were just starting to gain in popularity as the cost went down. Now it is hard to find anybody that doesn't have at least one.


 

Street View

Some time this week Google launched Street View for the Salt Lake City valley. This is an amazing effort where they are literally driving every street taking pictures and syncing them with their online maps. My friend Mike took THIS PICTURE back on July 30th of 2007 of one of the picture taking cars. So this week we found THIS PICTURE on Street View of Mikes car...


 

One Year Today
2008-02-11T11:01:53Z

One year ago today Ashley, Radar and Myself arrived in Salt Lake after our two day drive from Dallas. It is hard to believe that it has already been a year, but we have had a great time being back home.

On the 20th of this month I will celebrate my one year anniversary with Zions Management Services Company. It has been an adjustment, but I am enjoying my role and the people that I am working with.

Ashley is going strong in her job as well. When we relocated, she had to go back to school and get licensed to work in Utah. She really enjoys the people and environment that she is working in and has finally found what she truly loves doing.

The biggest pain with our transition has been getting into a house. We signed paperwork on three different houses and finally ended up closing on one in January of this year. We actually really lucked out and the year long wait was worth it. We feel very fortunate to have been able to get the deal we did on our house and are settling right in.

As if this weren't already enough we also drank the Dave Ramsey Kool-Aid. His thoughts and concepts are so simple but have totally changed our lives forever! All in all it has been a great 12 months and we are very much looking forward many more in the future. Thanks to all the family and friends in Salt Lake that have been VERY helpful in getting us back into the swing of things here. To all of our great Friends in Dallas; we miss you all and wish we could have brought you with us. Please keep in touch and thanks again for all the help and support.


-Brett & Ashley

Why does Wendys on 3300 south by REI give you a new cup when you ask for a refil. It seems like such a waste!
