Peru

We just bought our tickets to Peru. Fun in the Andes then the jungle for two weeks. Machu Picchu, here we come!!

Most Favorite Picture

I like this picture of my nephews and my little cousin.

Running

I ran a little over 5 miles today in about 1 hour, so approximately 12 minute miles which is not all that great. I haven’t done that since my training times in Georgia, and I'm not in shape at this moment in time (partially due to my car accident and laziness). After about 2.5 miles, I can’t feel my body anymore and I can run forever but my laziness takes over and I stop. I’m just glad that I didn’t stop running.

Research

The people on the radio today have all taken the time to talk about this new study that finds muscular guys get more girls than non-muscular guys. It all reminds me of that Onion headline:
"Teen Sex Linked to Drugs and Alcohol Reports Center for Figuring Out Really Obvious Things."

Link.

Hot Days and New Car

Boy it's really hot. Everyone was dieing during bible study today, so we made it short and sent the boys to the pool. I love it when it hot, I guess it the Peruvian Jungle blood in me.

So I finally finished a big report I've been working on for the past eight months and I'm sooo relieved. Hopefully it doesn't come back to haunt me. But on the good side in my work world, I got a brand new work car. Don't want to say what it is but I can turn the engine on with my remote key button thing, it can use ethanol (but there are no ethanol stations in California, go figure), and a MP3 hookup. It has other things but I don't know the car yet. It makes Jesse and I want to buy a new car.

I hope I can post Mexico pictures later.

Mexico Mission Trip

We are back from Ensenada, Mexico. We arrived in Fremont, around 11:00 o’clock at night very tired and dirty. We’ll post more about our adventures in Ensenada but a quick overview.

Twelve people went with our group. We sent four of our people out to other groups as translators. Two others helped another group build a roof and the rest of us painted the clinic and poured concrete. No one was left in Mexico, but we did get stopped at the border for fruit smuggling. We’ll post pictures and more stories. Overall, we had a great time serving the Lord in different ways. Also, thank you Danny for making us laugh so much that our abs hurt.

By the way Ricky Borba, I wrote cemetery wrong because in Spanish it is spelled with an “n”.
