One hundred fifty reasons to smile

Can you believe that this is my one hundred fiftieth blog entry, starting in August 2005? It's been an exciting (almost) two years, filled with:

- travels to 22 countries on 4 continents
- cross-cultural adventures (and mistakes!)
- a wonderful girlfriend (but no, we're not still together)
- steady research progress
- many new friends (and good times with old ones, too)
- great weather, of course!
- dozens of meteorology lectures (most good, some great, probably a few duds)
- family reunions (I think every time I see my immediate family it's like a reunion!)
- six amazing bible studies (Barbados Campus Crusade, Norman summer tour part trois, Austria Hauskreis, Tim et al., Norman summer tour part quatre, and now Thai / Taiwan / USA potluck)
- a ministry project to serve the poor
- half a dozen weddings
- mountains climbed; ski slopes skied; hundreds of miles run
- amazing food and fun parties
and, hopefully, a more mature Brad

Thanks for reading, and here's to the next hundred and fifty posts!!

Congrats Brad. Two years of bloggings is an accomplishment. Go for 150 more entries in this year alone. That way I can continue to live vicariously through your travels!
