Hubby Gets Honored

My husband was presented with an award last night for his contribution to Maricopa's Founder's Day. His company donated 1600 bottles of water for the event, and they also donated the first month's rental for all soft water and reverse osmosis tanks rented between October 15th and November 15th to the Maricopa Parks & Rec. Department.

We had to sit through a two-hour city council meeting about whether or not they will allow an ethanol plant in the city in order to see him get the award, but it was worth it. And the ethanol talks were pretty interesting for the first hour. He was presented the award by Marty McDonald, director of Parks, Recreation and Libraries, while the mayor and city councilmembers looked on. Pretty impressive, huh?

Good job, honey!

Congrats to Brennan! Speaking of whom, I was driving to Venice the other night and saw an Irish pub/tavern kind of place called Brennan's, with all these neon turltes in the signage--have you ever seen this place? Seems like you would've, since you're more of an LA girl than ne. Well, used to be, til you moved to The Zone.

Yeah, Brennen's! The turtles are because they have turtle races---people actually bring in their turtles (or perhaps tortoises) to race them. A much more benevolent bar activity than cock-fighting.

Congratulations to Brennen for the award!

Steph- Yeah, we know about Brennan's, but I'm not sure about the turtles. Vee is probably correct. Maybe she should pop over to Ireland and check it out.

swiss miss- Thanks! Says Brennen!
