Here is a video that Amy Perez put together during my family's trip down to Virginia for the US Thanksgiving last week. Incidentally, we're still here - enjoying our last evening as we're heading home tomorrow.

The trip ended up being longer than we anticipated as the Erie, PA and Buffalo, NY area got slaughtered with snow a few days ago when we had planned to go home. That's ok though as we just extended our vacation and had a few more days of fun.

Anyway, i made two pumpkin pies ... CREAMY PUMPKIN PIES actually from a recipe that my mother gave me. We had fun with it all and Amy and Kevin grabbed some pictures... read more 1 comments

So, I'm not all that good at keeping up with blog content like some of these other lads are. Quite some time ago an old friend of mine from university, Mark Young (read his blog since he updates his haha) wanted to do a phone interview with me for a project of his.
