HE CAME. . .HE WENT. . .AND I ALREADY MISS HIM. . .

. . .Brandon came home last week for business, and pleasure.  The real reason he came home was work related, an important meeting with 5 professor from the University of San Diego, but that only lasted for one day.  He spent this past week with the Wilson brothers (Will, Steven, and Kevin), camping in Yosemite.  The highlight of their camping trip was a visit by a 400-pound bear, within 10 feet of the guys.

Besides eating out and enjoying each others company, we went car shopping.  Yes, I'm going to buy a new car, but I'm still deciding what brand of SUV.  Originally I just wanted another newer model Lexus (used), but then I started thinking about owning a BMW, my always-dreamed-about-owning car.  Brandon loves the Audi, but lately I've noticed the Porsche Cayenne, and yesterday we looked at a 2004 that made my heart go pitter-patter. Never in my wildest dreams did I think that I would ever become an owner of a Porsche, but the car is really sharp, so who knows.  Looking at cars, making a large financial decision, test driving a car, and bargaining with a car dealer, sounds like a daunting task. Guess I'll put off the search until next month, and who knows what I will end up with.
