#023 – Winter Fun
Sunday, 27 January 2008, 11:13 pm
Winter Fun! The last few weeks have been really exciting. After waiting a few weeks I finally got my new digital camera… the Nikon D300. I also got a beautiful wide-angle lens so that I can take the most spectacular photographs ever. This weekend was stunning and I was able to make it up into the mountains to take some pictures.
That wasn’t the only thing I was working on this weekend however, I also managed to get my new company registered. I am now the proud owner of Khan & Associates LLC. I also go to enjoy the fine food from my own kitchen. I included a picture of tonight’s special. Penne pasta with a special oven baked vegetable sause.
Oh, I forgot… I am still in school and having fun. My engineering classes are getting really interesting now that we are learning about real-world applications. Math still kicks my trash but my gym class balances it out.
Big storm coming in tonight… makes for some great pictures. Those will be coming soon. Have a great night and a great week!

#022 – Happy New Year
Sunday, 6 January 2008, 3:45 pm
Happy New Year! It is has been some time since I sent out one of these emails. Life has been really great and I am getting ready to start another exciting semester at BYU tomorrow. Some highlight from this last semester of school included becoming a resident of the state of Utah and purchasing a remote start system for my truck. It is really nice because I can start my truck from about a mile away and by the time I am ready to drive off, it is already warmed up and ready to go.
I have taken up snow shoeing and that has been a blast. The nearest mountain trail is about ten minutes from my house. My roommate has a 5 month old yellow lab who loves the snow and it has been fun. Christmas and New Years were pretty tame this year as I spent it in Salt Lake with from friends. Other than that, life continues onward.
Pictures:
New Years Dinner – I made my dad’s special pasta primavera and it was by far the best pasta that any of my friends had ever tasted. I cooked with shrimp, chicken, vegetables and some unique spices to give a great flavor. (Thanks Dad)
Snow Shoeing – This is my roommate Charlie from Salt Lake and I snow shoeing in Mill Creek Canyon. It is very beautiful.
Toyota Tacoma: This is my baby. I don’t know how I ever survived living in Utah without a great truck. I have spent a few extra bucks doing some after market upgrades.
Snowy Day – This is outside my place and the tree looks beautiful. Winter isn’t all that bad. Pretty days like this make it worth it.
There are many more pictures and I will eventually find a way a to present them. I am looking forwarded to purchasing a professional grade camera so I can take even more stunning pictures.
Happy New Year!
