So I went on a business trip last week. I spent a week in Georgia & Alabama. It was my first time to the south and it was really interesting. I learned some really cool things about the south and the cultures. The culture is really different than the O.C.

I work as a project manager for a company that builds software applications for car companies. The reason why I went was because we started piloting an application that district managers will be using at dealerships. The goal of my trip was three part; train the people on how to use the application, get feedback from users and learn more about the auto industry.

I drove 700 miles in a week and stayed in 3 hotels. Below are some videos and pictures from my trip. I learned that Alabama has alot more personality that Georgia.

So, its our 2nd year now in CA during the 4th of July. We drove up to my parents house in Arroyo Grande and spent the day at Pismo Beach. It was really fun as usual. Below are a few pictures from our trip.

So about 2 weeks ago after we saw Wall-E in Hollywood, we went to Bakersfield, CA. This trip to Bakersfield was different because we were going to spend all weekend there. During my time there I wanted to actually see the town. In the past I have been to Bakersfield many times but only to see family and go home.

My little cousin David and his wife took us around town. On Friday night we went to Buck Owens’ Crystal Palace for dinner and dancing. It was awesome!

Then the next day we went to Wool Growers for lunch. After lunch Lindsey took us around town and showed us the nice parts of town. I was surprised at how large Bakersfield is and the division between East & West. I really got a better perspective of Bakersfield and what it has to offer.

For dinner we met up with everyone, including my cousin Jimmy.

On Sunday we had our usual family dinner at Uncle David’s house and drove home. On the way home we met my Dad in LA and he showed us this really neat water fountain.
