We had a great weekend at a friend's parent's lakehouse. It's a nice little place with modern design elements and transparent corners, giving an excellent view of the lake. They've asked me to work on designing an addition to it on the neighboring lot and I'm very excited about that. I've got to work out some kind of fee though. I'm thinking an electric guitar and an amp to help along my musical studies. Playing Guitar Hero at the lakehouse was a blast. With the open view you could easily imagine that were playing a show for the whole lake! A little more volume and the fantasy would have been complete.
Over the weekend our friend would make sure to insert Tekklo randomly into conversations. Margaret has warmed to the name and admits to liking it very much now, especially with the middle name of Albert. I used to wonder why people had middle names. Now I understand that it's to give the kid an option or because the parents just couldn't agree. We think Tekklo would be great as first name with a much tamer middle name to use if he later decides Tekklo doesn't fit.
