...slo town

Kara, myself, and our good friend from Germany, Tobias Grunick, all trekked to San Luis Obispo a couple of weekends ago. The reasons for this journey were two fold. First, and in Kara's eyes most important, was the haircut appointment. Since there was "no one" in Santa Barbara who could wield scissors like "her girl" 

in SLO, she made the appointment

 and went. Now, to me, this seems quite odd, considering the amount of talented hairstylists in the area of Santa Barbara, BUT the more I think about it, it probably sounds odd toher that I would travel to Ventura for surf when there are waves just over the mountain. Anyways, those will be mysteries, yet in each of our minds they make sense.

The second reason was to see family, sister Lindsay, and friends. And what a blessing they are to our lives. One of the hardest things, among others, about leaving SLO was leaving behind friends who are near and dear to our hearts. And being there brings back those memories of going to Sunshine Donuts at 12 am, hanging downtown at Linea's Coffee Shop, indulging in the best, best, best Tri-Tip Sandwich in

 the world (Firestone's, oh yeah!). 

SLO is near to our hearts and maybe someday (maybe not, I don't know, it is totally hypothetical) we will be back, living the SLO life. You never know what the Lord is doing! Peace!
