OAKLAND

Hi all, I am so sorry I have not updated. I will try to do better. I have a camera now, thanks to my sister and will have more time now that I am no longer an intern! I also hope to post some pictures of stuff I haven't gotten around to yet... like Lake Tahoe and visits from Cory and Chad, and Lanie.

SO, my new job is PERFECT! I love every day I go to work which is a huge plus. I am still in the honeymoon phase now since we haven't started touring yet but I like being on the road, and I look forward to seeing all of northern California b/c it is truly beautiful here. I can walk like five ten minutes from my house and be right on the shore of the Bay. I can look out and see Alcatraz and the water is so nice and there is always a breeze... it never gets too hot.

Also, I have made several new friends at work, and all the members of my troupe are great. Also, yesterday a Friend from work took me and another new employee to church with him and I really enjoyed it. It is a small non-denominational church and the worship was contemporary and the pastor very approachable.

In, general I am very happy here. Except for the fact that I miss my family so much. BUT on the brightside I get a week of PTO for thanksgiving and the whole week after christmas so I will be home for sure!!!

Promise to update later this week with more!

Love Tracy
