What's happening in my world…
My work will be taking me back to Colorado Springs, soon. I just hope the weather is good. I heard they are recoving from 2 feet of snow!
I will have to take my camera to capture some snow pictures while I am out hiking.
I hope to stop by the Bristol Brewing for a cold beer and Pikes Perk for coffee, but not on the same day.
I am heading out tonight to listen to my friend Harry Delugach at the House of Brews. Harry has been playing open mics around town such as Kaffee Klatsch Bar. But, a couple of months ago he started playing actual gigs.

Karen and I just got back from a wonderful vacation to Disney World. It was our first vacation as Disney Vacation Club (DVC) members. Being a DVC member made the vacation extra fun.
We stayed at Disney's Saratoga Springs, which is our home resort. We had a beautiful view of Disney Downtown.
The only bummer is Karen got a blister on both pinky toes.
I will be posting pictures soon at www.brianallen.com

Well, it is that time again. Karen and I will be heading to the Knoxville Brewers' Jam this weekend. All the money raised helps Community Shares with all of its many great projects.
We hope to see you there.

Karen and I set out to raise money for the ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis) “Walk To D'Feet ALS”. You may know the disease as Lou Gehrig's disease.
We have dear friend with the disease. He was diagnosed with the disease this year, but they believe he has had it for two years.
We managed to raise $1,800 for the flight for a cure. You can donate to the flight here. Please do all you can.
I am walking in this years “Walk To D'Feet ALS” to help raise fund to find a cure for ALS. The walk will take place September 30th, 2006.
I have a dear friend that was diagnosed this year with ALS. ALS was no cure and little to no treatment.
I would love for you to sponse me in this years walk. You can do so here. Just click on the sponsor me graphic.
Karen and I are starting to talk more and more about Disney World. You just know the trip must be around the corner.
We are putting the final touches on our trip.
Karen is looking forward to a break from work.
Karen and I had great time at this year’s Redstone Arsenal Oktoberfest. Each year we run into so many friends at the festival and this year was no different.
Terry Cavanagh and Alpine Express provided great entertainment. I snapped a good picture of Michael Hoffer playing his trombone in the audience.
Karen and I tried for the first time an Elephant Ear topped with powder sugar and cinnamon. It was good, but I think we will be sticking with Funnel cake.
You have just got to stop and wonder when you see a band named “Panic! At the Disco”.
Even though their last full album release “A Fever You Can’t Sweat Out” was out in September of 2005, their hit song “I Write Sins Not Tragedies” is still is getting great air play.
