Vacation day #1

Yesterday was my first vacation day of the year. It went something like this:
@ 7am - a very dear friend named WES BUFKIN decides I need a wake up call..he claims he forgot I was off... yea buddy whatever!!!
@7:30 got dressed and got on the riding mower where I stayed till 10:30 and still didn't get all the grass cut..
@11:30 went and visited with a very special lady..JoAnn Wallace. Mrs. JoAnn has cancer and could use any extra prayers you guys might want to send her way. So I was there till about 2 pm
@2:30 one of my best friends (Jennifer Ezell) and myself were sitting at Okhissa Lake where we stayed till 5:30!! She caught 2 and I caught nothing but a well deserved sun burn. I fed the fish every worm I put on my hook!! I must have been around a bed of little ones. Oh well, maybe better luck next time.
After we had supper I think I was in the bed by 9:30 that night. A WELL DESERVED VACATION DAY I THINK... What do you think??

I haven't posted in what seems like forever!! Things have been so crazy around here, but I know everyone's life is like that so we'll move on...

Work is work as usual. Monday-Friday Herring Gas. Friday-Sunday @ the sheriff office. And of course the usual EMT/First Responder stuff-- you all know this is my life. No complaints!!

Everyone is doing well. Colten has learned to "make the face"..

He's getting his personality down path. His feelings are in his rear end. You pat him on the behind, he cries... I haven't seen it yet, but he sure made Daddy feel bad the other day..

Thanks to Jennifer Cowart (Cowart Photography) I have pictures from the 2008 District 5 Bull Bash. I was working the gate and concession stand Friday night and unable to take pictures. And well Saturday night I worked the gate and then went and hid in the stands so I could witness a few minutes of the Bull Bash. She managed to some really good photos...

Some of the riders

Chris, Kevin Burns and Daryl Reditt "The arena guys"

A rider about to bite the dust... Hope he held on his 8 Seconds!!

We had a really good turn out for the Bull Bash this year! ! So that's a true sign we'll have another one next year!! Oh Boy!!
