Faith Night

Tonight my oldest son, Calvin, and I attended Faith Night and listened to Hawk Nelson .  The event was put on by Third Coast Sports and was held at Fox Cities Stadium, home of the Wisconsin Timber Rattlers . The concert was great and very entertaining, but Timber Rattlers lost.  Calvin enjoyed himself and got to spend some time with dad, which I really enjoyed.

Weekend away & some biking

This weekend we went up "north" to my father-in-law's cabin in Mountain .  Today we got to take some tire tubs down the Oconto Rivier , it was a 30 minute ride and very relaxing. Got a chance to go for a bike ride with the boys twice both lasting just over 2 miles.  So no record times on the bike but a nice ride with the boys.  We also started a 1000 piece puzzle last night and finished it this morning.

Bike Ride III

The first half of today's ride at 6:15 AM was great, but on the way back home it was hell.  I just could not find any spark, maybe I pushed it a little hard on the first leg.  It was very cold this morning, just a thin short sleeved shirt, and my belly was very cold.  Will have to check the temperature next time.

Today's bike ride was 10.4 miles in 40:40  Average: 15.34

Proverbs 9:1-6

1-Wisdom hath builded her house,
she hath hewn out her seven pillars:
2-She hath killed her beasts;
she hath mingled her wine;
she hath also furnished her table.
3-She hath sent forth her maidens:
she crieth upon the highest places of the city,
4-Whoso is simple, let him turn in hither:
as for him that wanteth understanding, she saith to him,
5-Come, eat of my bread, and drink of the wine which I have mingled.
6-Forsake the foolish, and live;
and go in the way of understanding.

Home Fireworks of 2007

Bruce , can you please report in on how the GDFP is this year?   I do believe that we missed the New Years Eve report also.  

This year in Wisconsin the economy must be doing well again.  As you can tell the board has expanded a little from last year .

Bike Ride I

I have been biking every other day for about two weeks.  I am using a bike that I bought when I was 14, and used it for my paper route and one summer I biked.  But since then it has sat in the basement.  My neigbhor and brother-in-law have been biking and have been incouraging me to also.

Today's bike ride was 9.4 miles in 35:43  Average 15.79.

Nickels
