here

i've been in kansas city for a while now (couple months; amy's been here a month) and it's beginning to sink in last weekend we went to a royals game with some friends and enjoyed the gorgeous weather. they lost to detroit in the last couple innings, so i'm glad to maintain the minimal expectations of hometown baseball instilled in me by the rockies. apparently teams don't need elevation to be horrible.

that morning we got together with some folks interested in growing together and ames & i both left super encouraged. honestly, it's been awhile since i/we've been in a room with so many like-minded peers. we were really looking forward to these kinds of relationships when we got here, knowing we'd need them in this alien environment, and that we've already gotten to meet these people is pretty exciting.
