On Our Way















Melis leaves Alaska in two days.

She heads to Nevada to work for two weeks before getting married. Her friends gave her an amazing send off party yeserday. It will be hard to leave the gorgeous fall colors up here, but it has been a rainy and cold summer and now its time for some New Mexican sunshine.



Joey is off in the mountains carrying loads for a Discovery Channel production called- "Out of the Wild: Alaska." They have flown 10+ contestants up hear from all over the country and all walks of life to survive and travel through the Alaskan Wilderness just outside Talkeetna. This small town has become a virtual little Hollywood.


We are really looking forward to our wedding and will send out final RSVP cards soon.


Signing off for now- Thanks to my Alaskan girlfriends and Holly Sheldon for throwing me an awesome party.

3 Weeks! Are you ready?


Wow- Now it is really getting close, we can almost taste it- and all these catering menus ARE helping.............

Worried we are going to feed you too much? You should be! That's why we are encouraging guests to join a run sponsored by Santa Fe's local running club the "Santa Fe Striders." They are hosting a fundraiser run Saturday morning, October 4th at 9am. It is a 12-mile run ascending 2,000 feet to the summit of Teusque Peak (12,043'). It is an out and back run on a maintained dirt road. It could also be a nice hike. Event fee is $22 and proceeds benefit an organization called "Wings of America," a non-profit supporting American Indian youth development programs.
