A blog about us (’cause it’s always about us)

A lot of you have asked to see pictures of our new house in Louisville. Here you go:

Kentucky Derby Home Rental

Yes, that’s our site. And if you’re interested in renting our house for Derby, please let us know. We offer a friends and family discount (the amount varies based on who asks for it though).

We’ll be happy to put a number on our friendship.

Happy Fourth of July

Tom Bennett, a friend of my Margaret’s and the former Kentucky Commissioner of Fish and Wildlife, needs AB positive or AB negative blood.

If you have this type of blood and are willing to donate, please call the Blood Center in Louisville at (502) 540-7102 to make an appointment to donate plasma.

Please specify that you are donating for C. Thomas Bennett (he is in the ICU at Baptist East Hospital in Louisville).

Bennett was diagnosed with the rare blood disorder, TTP or Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura. He is on a ventilator and dialysis and needs plasma-replacement therapy.

Seven months after we returned from Europe (yeah, I’m slacking on the photos), our honeymoon pictures are finally online. Select a photo to go to that picture in Flickr where you’ll have easy access to the rest of our shots from that city. Or you can view the entire collection here.

Just a brief roundup of some relevant links that might be of interest (but probably aren’t):

• Margaret and Zach find bird feathers in their spinach (the blog that ran the story is owned by the same company that owns the travel blog I write for)
• Zach’s dad wrote an op-ed piece for the local paper about highway development issues
• I’m not one for reliving high school sports glory days (namely because there weren’t many for me), but The Boston Globe recently published a feature on my high school’s athletic prowess
