I got a call this morning from Brody, nothing out of the ordinary, but as the phone rang and i went to answer it I realized, “Crap I think Daniel is supposed to be in town today”. Sure enough, 3pm @Fidos…
After all this time of working with Daniel we finally got to meet. Let me tell you he’s just as cool as you would think. Also, he’s pretty good at having a conversation as well. (although he made fun of me for not being able to spell) –>> you just wait till the next blog revision there buddy boy… >_<
So if by some random chance you don’t read Daniel yet, go over and check him out. Oh, and by the way you should hear some of his music too. go here and download a song he’s had up for a while… you’ll like it.

I made it over to Auburn Grace Brethren this morning and saw a lot of people that I haven’t seen in a really long time. It was fun, but there were a few of those times where I was talking to someone I knew but just couldn’t place them. Eventually I figured it out with no harm and no one was the wiser.
I always find it amazing how you can leave a town for a couple of years and when you come back babies are now toddlers and toddlers are now kids and the kids are now in high school. I know it’s nothing new, but I’m finally getting to that age where I can see how old I am by the size of my friends kids. In fact I even said it a few time, “I remember when you were only this tall“. The kid just looks at me with that confused coy look as if to say, “I don’t remember you at all“.
Church was good, I haven’t been to a Church service in over 4 years, at least not that I can remember. Phil Sparling is the pastor. He used to be my youth pastor when I was 14 or so. He’s a really cool guy and not your average pastor in my opinion. I’m not sure why he’s not average but he’s not. I think it’s because he seems real.
After Church I headed out to lunch with some good friends and we all had Mexican food. Oh, how I love good Mexican food. Brody’s parents bought me a burrito and it was good. It was good to see them, thanks Barb and Mike I had a good time.
So if you are ever visiting the Auburn, Ca area and you’re looking for a Church to visit be sure to stop by Auburn Grace Brethren. You wont be disappointed.

@ 8:27 pm
So Im off to the fishing place with my Buddy Jim and my Friend Chris. I’ve got my $8 fishing pole, some bate, my sandwiches, my jacket and we’re off. Fishing with Jim is always interesting because he has a million stories. There not even about the one that got away, there just random stories about fishing. Chris is my other friend that is going. Any trip with Chris is an interesting one. Something strange is bound to happen, unexplainable things follow him and like to play tricks on him.
Dont worry Im prepared, Im bringing my camera which takes 1gb of decent video so if something ridiculous does happen i’ll be sure to get some good shots or video. Maybe even a fish. ha

Positive Post Tuesday - Jim Anderson

Im going to tell you about my friend Jim Anderson. He’s lived in the Portland area all his life, and he always talks about how he grew up on Mt Scott. I’ve even met some random friends of his from HS.
The best way for me to describe Jim is that he’s ‘a good ol boy‘. He likes to fish, drives a Ford and has a beer with a whisky backer. Jim and I worked for the same Company, and we started just about the same week. Once we got to know each other a little we started to hang out. I spent a good portion of the last two summers hanging out over in Jim back yard playing horse shoes and ping pong. So many good times in the back yard.
I’ve moved around a good amount in the last few years and I’ve noticed that i tend to meet a very small crowd in every town i go to and stick with it. Jim’s the best friend I’ve had since i moved here to Portland. He’s helped me out in a lot tight positions, also he made the days of Paving bearable. Jim is a good Friend and Im going to miss him when i leave here.
Here is a video of Jim and a little fish he caught when we were out by Bend, OR working on some forestry roads.
