It was a fun, if exceedingly rainy, birthday weekend. Friday night kicked it off with a nice dinner with my sweetie at Mo’s Diner in downtown Raleigh.
Saturday morning, we made a trip to RDU Airport again. This was the open house at Southern Jet Aviation. I wanted to say hello to Margaret Riddle, my flight school instructor who is now in charge of the flight training there.
Kelly, however, wasn’t feeling well, so we bailed out of our visit to spend most of the rest of the day around the house. I set up my computer to do some video editing with my Pinnacle Studio DC10plus card. My first project was to take the snowfall footage I shot and make it into something watchable.
Rather than the traditional trip to a bar, we went to Comedy Sportz, in downtown Raleigh. My old co-worker at NeTraverse performs there, Wade Minter. Jeff, Suzie, Dawn, Mandy, Gerry, Kelly (of course), and Bryon Johnson and his girlfriend Sara were there. We all had fun.
The rain hadn’t stopped so we all took off after the show was over, about 9:30. Lame, but with water everywhere, all we could think of was getting inside.
Sunday was quiet. I didn’t feel well, and Kelly slept most of the day. In the afternoon, I got my second wind and continued working on my video.
Sunday night we had dinner with my parents at Southwood Restaurant in North Raleigh. Lots of laughs and fun. The rest of the evening was devoted to more video editing! The rendering took over an hour, so I left it for the morning.
