sunrise, i’m still here
Posted on April 30, 2007
Hey folks, sorry about not blogging the last few days … the weather has been awesome and we have been riding every spare minute we could find. Friday afternoon we cruised up to Forestburg, TX. Had a coke and an ice cream sandwich at the only little store on main road coming in. Then we headed back and ate at Babe’s in Sanger. It was a lot of fun.
Saturday, after mowing and weed eating … yuck. I headed over to Maxim in Allen and also the Harley House. Picked up some highway pegs, found a Auto Zone and installed them and rode home. It was a lot of fun. Hmmm … I already said that once. Ok, disregard that last "lot of fun" and replace it with a "ton of fun".
Yesterday …
I had another preaching gig, came home, took a nap, and then worked on and washed the Valk. It’s a good thing … the forecaster predicts 5 straight days of rain. I grabbed this shot with my new D50 … through our front door. Now, I’m off to the races for this week. A lot of work to get done. We have a sign show that we want to go to on Thursday … so we have to work double hard the next three days to get it all done.
Thanks for stopping in.

garage dentisty - florida
Posted on April 26, 2007
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. - "A man was held Wednesday on charges that he performed dental work on customers without a license in his "filthy" garage, authorities said. Roger Bean, 60, was arrested Tuesday and held on $6,000 bond.
Bean performed denture fittings and made false teeth in his garage, charging just $200 for a full set of dentures, a procedure that typically costs more than $2,000, authorities said. But he was not licensed to practice in Florida."
Poor guy … he was just trying to help old people who couldn’t afford dentures. I wonder if he does crowns?

big flood
Posted on April 25, 2007
Imagine my shock this morning to see this photo from the Denton Record Chronicle. It took me a couple of seconds to realize that the water level in this picture was up to the car windows. This feed store is near the TWU campus and needless to say … pretty much was flooded out. 5 inches of rain fell in our area.
You can’t see our back yard … flooded. We are ok … just some damp carpet where the 50 mph winds blew in rain around every window casing. Then I read this …
Storm watchers were reporting seeing some cloud rotation, and one tornado was reported to have touched down near FM1385 and FM455 about 2:45 p.m., but no damage had been reported from that sighting.
Hmmm … this is less than a mile from our house. We are fortunate that we live on high ground and that nothing blew off … I think.
We are not used to this kind of storm system and I am sure the folks in Denton and Pilot Point have a lot of clean up today.

spring ‘07 — strange
Posted on April 24, 2007
This spring (so far) has been really weird … weather wise. Last year at this time we were hitting 90 … this year we have storms or threat of storms every three or four days. Really jacks with the stuff I am doing. Oh well … some will say … we need the rain. All in all … it cuts down on my riding and my generally cheery mood.
For you nay sayers … I did get my camera … and collected $250 from my blog. Who’s the man? Kenneth and Gloria don’t have anything on me. Except it was just $250 and not a million dollar Gulfstream.
It’s all fun.

more good news
Posted on April 22, 2007

Today I was asked to fill in for a pastor who will be "out of the pulpit" for the morning. It’s kind of weird because it’s a little church that is actually very close to our home.
The pastor called me about a month ago and asked … and told me it was a very small congregation … about 20 folks gather.
I’m speaking on Maximizing your Living. John 10:10 text.
Some of my close friends and relatives have asked if it’s just going to be a message that I have already preached … and I said no … it’s a fresh one. Who wants to get day old bread when you need the freshest you need. It will be fun. The church … Mustang Baptist Church.
You could pray –
