Yes! My Radiator finally blew!

Yep, I'm psyched, sorta. Couldn't have happened at a better time. I ran errands this morning and my last one was a trip to Home Depot where I purchased fence materials to build a run for Mosey our new dog. Upon my return to the car I discovered large amounts of antifreeze running out from under the engine as well as a trail that marked my entry into the parking lot. I say finally because it's been about 6 months since I took it out and decided not to replace it. I've been wondering how long it would last. The cool part about this whole deal is that it happened during my off week and that I also got a free tow home. So, my life is good because I have time and cash to fix the problem. My radiator will be delivered by noon tomorrow and the job might take as long as a couple hours, worst case scenario. I don't like to recklessly blame God for cool stuff like this, but maybe he was involved in the timing, and if so. Cool!

Not Dead Yet

This Sunday I went to Church, once in while won't kill me....I hope. In any case, the guy who carries the title Pastor; Daron asked, What does God want his Church to look like? (I should add that he does a heck of a job!) I think this must be one of the best questions for the American Church I have ever heard, and from a pastor too. The obvious answer is, white with a steeple and double doors at the entrance. Duh!

In reality, I don't think it's possible to paint a picture of what the Church ought to look like, it would have to be a video. Everything that Jesus taught was a form of action. Love your neighbor as yourself can only be accomplished through action. Love is active, if it's not, well I guess you've got some fuzzy feelings or something. In any case I believe God wants an active church.

I think a big part, or at least the beginning of what the Church should look like is like a big family. If you find yourself with a bunch of people who love each other, spend time together and live lives that reflect love for God, well you just might be at Church. In my opinion, this can happen anywhere, in the woods, at the grocery store, most often at someones house, even at the top of Mt. Rainier. Speaking of, anyone interested in a Church meeting at the summit of Mt. Rainier, let me know, that would be awesome!

4th of July

Well the 4th and 5th rocked, we blew off a bunch of fireworks, drank local beer and ate local crab that I caught off the dock. On Saturday Dan made an awesome spaghetti dinner, if you know Dan you know that he is not capable of average when it comes to food, so dinner was over the top delicious. We told people to drop by, but since no one came, I get leftovers, yesss! The great finale was the Indianola annual fireworks show on Saturday night, everyone loved it and the night ended with applause and cheering. What a great weekend!

Let the Crabbing Begin

For my Birthday last week, my parents gave me a crab pot. Just what I wanted! The season officially opened at 12:00 am today. I had my pot in the water about 14 min into the morning baited with last weeks uneaten clam catch, it smelled so bad that Amber refused to walk behind me. It worked! Only 1 was legal, but it's my first time. Oh yeah, I woke at 5, couldn't sleep. Got up at 6 and headed strait for the dock.
