ALRIGHT, ALREADY.....

Okay, I'm being pressured to do that blog thing again. Where does the time go? I thought I just did it. Anyway, school is once again upon us although the junior high has yet to get started. Too bad they are losing their snow days already. See, they thought it was great to start late but the days still have to be be made up. Who's crying now? And school sports are prepping for the new season. Time will tell how we will do. No matter, get out and support the kids (Just don't yell at the refs). Oh and by the way, I am announcing the JV football games. Of course I won't be biased and I'll only say objective and supportive things for our team as well as our opponent. (Snicker, snicker). And yes, 8 from our church are going to Promise Keepers next Friday. Should be a blast. Don't worry wives. We won't come back with our heads shaved, wearing leather, beating our chest, and grunting. Wait! Maybe we will! (Doubt it). However, regarding he-man stuff, I'm heading to the mountains in a couple of weeks with Shep and my brother, packing horses, pitching a tent, hunting elk, fishing for trout, taking pictures, and experiencing God's splendor of His creation. Can't wait for that. I'll be back for the holidays - don't want to miss the good food. DID I MENTION CHERRY PIE? (Where did that come from?) Anyways, just a few random thoughts. Must keep you all happy. (There's so much pressure).

AND THE WINNER IS.....


After weeks an weeks of training, Rick's Wreck narrowly took first place in the world famous barnyard olympics at the Wichita county fair. The Wreck won by 1 second over the Ken Gerstberger crew and 9 other teams and will now proudly wear the gold medals until next August when they will defend their title. The team consisted of Kyle and Evan Just, P.R., and the beautiful and talented good luck charm, Karlee Seaton. She was the missing link that was needed to put us over the top. The Wreck would like to thank our familes and friends for allowing us to train these many weeks (hours, minutes?). Without your sacrifice, we would not have been able to take our place in Barnyard Olympic history. And that's no bull!
