This has got to be one of my favorite places. Double Bluff beach is located on the beautiful Whidbey Island and is about an hour from where I live in Kirkland Including a quick ferry ride from Mukilteo to Clinton. The ferry runs all day long every half hour.

Kaylee and Savannah had a great time running up and down the beach chasing everything and nothing and were quite worn out by the time we left.








Unfortunately I discovered Double Bluff in January; as such it was a bit cold. I can’t wait to get back there in the summer time.

iPod Touch Review

Though the iPod touch has been out for well over a year now it has evolved in many ways and is now a product that is vastly superior to the product that was released on September 5th, 2007. What will follow is a run down of some of the cooler apps that I use on my iPod touch.

Remote App
One of the coolest apps available for the iPod touch now is the Remote App that is available for free on the iTunes store. This app is incredible! It allows you to control itunes on your computer or an Apple TV console from your iPod or iPhone. If you have not tried this app then do!

Sudoku
Also available for free from the iTunes store is Sudoku. It might be obvious to must of us but somehow it was not obvious to apple. Sudoku was not avaiable from the iTunes store at launch but is now available for free and is a breeze to play on the touch. If you are a sudoku fan, this is possibly the BEST way to play sudoku!

Pandora
Ok. This is actually what I would consider the best app for the iPod Touch. If you are not familiar with Pandora, let me explain. Pandora.com is a website where you can go to create your own personalized radio stations. You simply add artists you like and it will find similar music and play it on your radio station. From there you can add more artists or just listen and rate songs. I have been using pandora on my pc for a couple years now and I love it! Now that you can get Pandora on your ipod touch I love it even more!!! Pandora is of course a free download on the iTunes store and allows you to play your stations and rate them and so on. Listening to Pandora on your iPod is a great way to listen to music!

PenguinLite
This is a simple but fun game that is available for free on the iTunes store. In this game penguins fly across the screen and you simply tap the screen at the right time to make the penguin hit a variety of targets. It might sound overly simple, but believe me. This is a fun game that you shouldn't pass by.

As you can see it is the apps that make the iPod touch great and they just keep getting better. The iPod Touch of today is vastly superior to the iPod Touch that was launched in September, 2007. It is not just an overzealous mp3 player, it is much much more and if you do not have one, maybe it is time! Unless you own a iPhone! If you do I am quite jealous but do not see a switch in my future any time soon due to provider limitations. Oh well! iPod Touch Rules!

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to be a movie star?

If you have, the HBO sitcom Entourage is just the TV show for you. Entourage is a show that follows the fictional movie star Vincent Chase (Adrian Grenier) through the ups and downs of his career and his personal life. The series also follows the lives of his entourage. His entourage consists of his brother two of his friends from New York where they all grew up.

As you might imagine, these four have the money and get the girls. But it is not just about money, drugs and girls. This is a sitcom that stays interesting. Vince's stardom is a new and precarious thing and he is living constantly on the edge of being the next up and coming star to burn out. There are also tensions and antics between the four friends that keep the show amusing. For example, Johnny Chase (Vince's brother), one time star of Viking Quest is frequently auditioning for what he hopes might be his next big break. Frustrated after one of the auditions Johnny is driving angry and aggressive comes to a stop behind another driver he is particularly angry at and he gets out grabs a golf club and proceeds to smash up the other drivers vehicle.

Entourage typically features a celebrity guest star in every episode from Sara Foster to Jennifer Love Hewitt and Jessica Alba. Entourage has currently finished five seasons and has announced a sixth season.

It's 4 am

Its 4 am and I’m not really sure why I am awake. Tomorrow I will be going to the Seattle Aquarium with my girlfriend. For the last year I have worked in walking distance of it and have still not visited. More later today (it IS 4 am after all).
