Ali and I ended a trip to Santa Ynez with an afternoon in Santa Barbara and I’m excited to report that I found my new look.  What do you think?  I’m even going to adopt the deep forlorn eyes so I can gaze out to sea for my lost love.

This posting is dedicated to all the ladies out there. Prepare your eyes for half-naked bachelor party pix. Charlie was my roommate in college for two years and this summer he is tying the knot in Oregon.

We’re in Colorado for work but as a bonus we get to stop in and visit Ali’s family in Boulder.  I think she’s trying to honor her mountain heritage by not wearing a jacket.  Good thing we’ll be back in Mexico in 48 hours.
