where's jim?

Things I have learned..

Don't feed the kitties, they are very hungry. Particularily at the Desert Museum (our destination for today).

Cream cheese is very good in Roblettes.

Keep both feet on the ground and both hands on the club (firmly but gently). It will enable you to shoot 89 even at Ocotillo..(Blue Tees).

That once upon a time when asked to put pigtails in my daughters hair that I put one left pigtail in the one daughter's hair and the right pigtail in the other daughter's hair. There you go, pigtails!!!

You can roast a marshmellow over the top of a chimnea with most excellent results.

Nearly three year olds prefer Starbucks Vanilla Bean frappacinos to almost any other treat.

I learned that you need equal parts of scarlett and blue to make purple, therein explains the purple...

Grandaughters almost alway prefer Granny to Pappy.

Don't necessarily follow Yahoo directions explicitely. It does not hurt to buy a map and then look at it once in a while...

The desert and desert mountains kinda grow on you. They are a continuing reminder of the awe and majesty of God...


And any time is a good time to read God's Word...

I WANT SMORE!!!!



I AM FULL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Greetings from Gold Canyon, Arizona...

The mountain in the backround you see is Superstition Mountain. It has been a bit cooler here than normal. How has it been back home? We really miss you guys. It has been such a blessed weekend!!! We visited a lovely church today, Gold Canyon Community Church http://www.goldcanyon.org/ and even ran into some of the congregation after the service at the Red Sage Restaurant. I will tell you the cheeseburgers at the Red Sage have absolutely nothing on the burgers from Cowboys.

We attended two of the meetings this weekend at the Joyce Meyer Conference at the Phoenix Assembly of God. There were so many people there we had to sit in the overflow arena for both meetings. There were over 1000 people in the overflow building we were in (I think it was the Youth Center). We are so looking forward to attending her conference in Detroit this July. I think we are going to book some rooms at our favourite hotel in Auburn Hills. Let us know if you are interested in attending.

It has been good to see the family. Rob is back safe and sound from Afghanistan and the girls are growing like weeds. It is probably the last time we see them before they turn 3 and 5 respectively.

I did shoot a 94 the other day. Seems my left hand grip has been a bit week and the right arm has been doing all the work. No wonder all my shots have been pull hooks. I did get into a cactus looking for a wayward tee shot, OUCH!!! Gonna have to do some work to get a couple of more rounds in before we head back next month, but I think we can work it out if it is His will.

It is so dry here!!! It has been over 120 days since they have had any measurable rain out here. There may not be any rain from the clouds but the Spirit has been pouring out like a deluge. Be blessed above and beyond all measure in the name of Jesus.
