A Photo Tour
After going to the grocery store today I walked around town with the sole intent of taking pictures. I’ve chosen a few to share with you here.

Finally Some Pictures
Remember the photo competition from two weekends ago? One of the pictures I took, the one of the melted snow man, was printed, in very large format, on the front of a local newspaper. By very large I mean the -entire- front page. Kinda neat

2 Weeks Down
It’s been 2 weeks. As you regular readers have probably noticed things are going a whole lot better now than they were those first few days.
Yesterday Yuriy set up a lunchtime meeting between us and a guy named Sashko, a member of L’viv’s Off-Road club. That’s right, wheelin’ in Ukraine.

A Ride on the Tram
I haven’t written in a few days because I haven’t had much to say. It snowed on Thursday and it’s been -freezing- ever since, however, that’s not exactly big news.

2.3 Weeks until I join Big Bad Bob in Ukraine!!!
Yay, Just a little over two weeks until I leave for Ukraine. I can’t wait to get there and take everything in Athough I’m still not sure about the whole flying by myself, and who knows how I’m going to get everything done for the big move!
Anyhoo, Yay, I’ll be there soon, and if any of you want to come help me pack, feel free to call me

One Week Down, Many to go
As of this very moment I’ve been living in Ukraine for 7 days and a couple of hours. The past week has been, to say the least, interesting.

Dinner in Ukraine, Alone, Again
Yesterday afternoon Bohdan came over and we walked to a nearby soccer field where I got to fly my helicopter for the first time in Ukraine and for the first time over snow. The flight went well. I got inverted a few times and flew out of a couple of nasty situations without crashing. A few folks stopped to watch but nothing more than I normally get back home (this is a good thing).

Photo Competition
Yuriy has put up a nice collection of our photos from the competition. The little filmstrips show the work in progress while the singular pictures in the second half show our submissions.

The Last Few Days
On Thursday night I finally slept through an entire night and woke up Friday morning to snow falling from the sky. This was, as most Californians think, neat to see. Then I remembered Ivan asking the night before if I wanted a ride to work on Friday. I told him no and that I’d just walk. 1.5mi in the snow. But this walk was nothing compared to the walking I’d do on Saturday.

Day 3
It’s my third day here in Ukraine. After going to bed at 8:00PM local time I woke up around 3AM this morning. With nothing much to do I pulled out the laptop and watched a movie. And then I pulled out bittorrent and downloaded the latest episode of American Idol. And then I watched that. And then I stared at the dark wall wondering why the street light never came back on outside. And then… you see, it was more boring than reading this blog.
