Volver

Constance and I have returned from Baja and the trip was a dream. My battery is recharged and Constance herself, had a wonderful time. She even wrote me a hikku on a napkin that I am saving forever. After dinner one evening we walked on the beach and took a seat on the Mesa du Rogue. A perfect opportunity to present her with the silver amulet I purchased. Her face lit up and she gave me a hug that almost squeezed a year off the calender. I can tell she truely enjoys the gift because she has not taken it off since that magical evening. We are going dancing tonight. Hopefully I can keep up. On a parting note, it might seem like hitting below the belt but I couldn't help taking advantage of the Ishii clan's absence. Let's just say that when they do return, their floodlights might not work properly. Even score, even trade.
