Visiting good Friends

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.

People in Portland

So Brody flew in to Portland today, not too much wear and tear to show. He only got lost once and it’s kinda my fault. (i’ll take the blame) We immediately took off for Qdoba to get a burrito, I think he felt the need for pay back. Read his post if you want to understand that.

So, yeah Brody is in town and were going to meet up with Phil tomorrow and check out his [...] Read More

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 [...] Read More
