Out fishing with Annie on his lap, a cigar in one hand and a ginger ale in the other, watching the sunset.

While I am living in Elgin right now I do have family in Carmel, used to live in Bloomington, and went to college in West Laffalot (best damn decade of my life). I make it through the area a lot, and have done the RAIN ride 2 years in a row. Keep me in mind if you guys are setting up anything in the area.

A soon-to-be Bloomington resident here. My fiancee was just hired by the IU library, and I will be moving up with her. The best part is that I don't have a job there yet, so I get plenty of time to ride my bike before I get full-time employment. Whee!!!
