Hurts So Good

Tisk, Tisk! (Don’t Wag the finger at me)

People get mad at me because I don’t blog enough for their liking. However, I refuse you apologize. So take that! Sure I am a busy man. I have a wife, a dog, a full-time job…amongst other thing that I must tend to. So get over it. Thanks.

A week ago, I was in Colorado with my family for my little brothers wedding. It was definitely the high of my last week. Chris married his beautiful bride Laura. It is an honor to add Laura to our family. She is a great addition. My bro-in-law said at the dinner table, “this is the BEST family ever!” And I have to agree. God has really blessed us with an amazing group of people who seek after Him, and have fun doing it.

While we were there Joe, Jim, Chris and I decided to do some hiking…(um, we all live on flat land at about 500-900 feet. This was a mountain at about 9,000-10,500 feet…so yes there was a lack of oxygen) We didn’t last too long, however we did last loner than I thought we would. We didn’t go up a trail, we just saw the mountain and started walking. We realized this may not be a good idea when we saw the Beaver Creek security guard was looking at us funny. Concidering there are mountain lions, courgars, cheetahs, tigers, bears, blue whales and old rich women (some of the animals mentioned may or maynot exist in that region of the world). Doesn’t sound safe does it? Here is a picture taken of us.

  1. I voted Rich Old Women. I’m not sure I’ve met one, but I’m also not sure what action to take if I ever do.

  2. akhendrix, I would recommend begging and pleading.

    We DO have the best family ever. Fortunately, some of us are smart enough to take pictures of those hiking in grizzly bear country from the safety of the condo. That will ensure that when you guys all get eaten your mother and I can find new mates for our grieving daughter and daughter’s-in-law, creating “The Best Family Ever pt. 2.”
