These are incredible formations from the top of a small ridge within the paved portion of the park. It’s pretty amazing that these rocks are holding each other up and that the erosion of these rocks formed in this particular fashion. I think the other thing to emphasize is the size of these rocks and…

We started off our trip on Sunday in the great city of Colorado Springs. Early on Monday morning around 7 a.m. at the Garden of the Gods we began in the main parking area and started walking around the paved area. The most breathtaking rock formations are within this paved area, but Miranda and I…

We are currently at the Super 8 Motel in Buena Vista, CO. Obviously, this motel has high speed wireless internet and right now I’m sitting in my underwear making my first post. The trip to Colorado started very late, we didn’t get to leave Terrell until 6:00 on Saturday evening, nevertheless, things went well. The…

Miranda and I are checking out for a week for a long overdue vacation.  As I mentioned before, we’re hitting the road, me and my wife, lots of good times.  I am bringing the computer and if any of the rooms have internet access then you may see some posts from the road, but I…

Where do I begin? I guess the first thing is to thank Blue, serious mad props to my boy Blue. Blue’s firm offered him tickets to Game 6 on Tuesday. He called me on Monday morning asked me if I wanted to go and without hesitation I said yes. He would fly in on Tuesday…

Jenson and Grace make me laugh. Jenson turns two on Thursday, and we had his party on Sunday. The food was good, but there’s two funny parts. The first funny part is when we all sing “Happy Birthday” to Jenson, he gets embarassed and hides his face, and tries to act like no one can…

I am making every attempt to give all of the dogs baths each week. We have fleas and every little bit helps. Needless to say, because Blue has very thick fur, she’s always the first one to get a bath. So I struggle to keep her next to me because she seems to hate the…

If you don’t stop and look around once in awhile, you could miss it.” (Ferris Bueller’s Day Off) If I had to define validation, I would probably say it is the accomplishment of something that someone appreciates. I don’t what got me started thinking about this, but I…
