Holy Crap...

...the Blog is Back, Baby!

It's been a busy ten months since my last post. I returned to radio, Jeremy has started talking up a storm, the seasons have come and gone... and, finally, I have decided to resurrect Mokpo, ROK City.

Here are a couple of shots of some of my co-workers: Soo (my co-host), Mike (glasses), Pete (Scottish)...

More posts coming soon. Booyah!

Khaaaaan!

Ricardo Montalbán died and Rachel and I are really kind of bummed. He was, after all, our favorite Star Trek villain. Also, one of my all-time favorite commercials featured the beloved "Fantasy Island" star: Cordoba, the Small Chrysler. "Soft, Corinthian leather..."

Been pretty busy, lately, with taking care of the boy and the house and doing some writing. So a progress report is in order for those three items:

1. Jeremy is doing fine. He's close to walking and is already waving goodbye.
2. An unbelievable volume of laundry has built up in the past month. Rachel and I scrounge for something to wear, while the boy has all the drying racks filled with diapers and jumpers and stuff printed with ducks.
3. The writing has been coming along nicely. I am working on a first draft, so I know there will be a ton of editing in my future. Just trying to get it all on the page, first, before I worry too much about the many fixes I'll need to make.

Other goings-on:
Rachel just bought her plane tickets for a February visit to South Carolina. She'll be traveling with Jeremy (while I sleep for two weeks). We're still planning to return to the USA this Summer, but we wanted everyone back home to get a chance to meet the boy before he grew too much.

Meanwhile, here in Mokpo, we were treated, last night, to a beautiful sight in the sky, as Jupiter and Venus shone brightly in close (visual) proximity to the new moon. Here are a couple shots taken from Peace Park. Also included is a picture of Gotbawi Rock, a natural formation the Koreans believe looks like a pair of monks.
