What was I thinking?

I have been offline for about 10 days because of deep grief. For some unknown reason, in the midst of a simple upgrade to my iPhone, I erased ALL my contacts and photo's. This is a major loss. Along with hamstringing my contact with the outside world, I lost all the photo's from the last trips to Denver and Thanksgiving. Thus, no posts.

The upside is that every new phone call is an adventure. And many texts come in and I have to guess how to respond. Too embarrassed to admit the obvious. Above is a random photo that survived, some long, lean guys: Sons, son-in-law & one grandson.

Off to Denver and Montana this week, won't make the same mistake twice.

Eight Days, Two Oceans, Five States, Little Sleep

Family photo of the week: Jason, Jaxon, Becca & Bridget!

Started the trip in Denver doing some consulting for Grace FM- a new Calvary station. Brought Heidi along to check out Colorado Christian University. Highlight: met up with my niece Jasmine and toured the King Tut exhibition. Despite the make up and strange hair, at least the Egyptians thought about eternal life. Came to so strange conclusions however.
Then to Santa Monica: At the American Film Marketing deal at Loew's Hotel. This is where the deals get done, Daniel is making serious progress on his film, 'The Persecuted.'

Ended the trip in Miami, with Pedro & Pastor Chuck. Then three days on air with Pedro on Life FM. Jammed it home to make a nice dinner with Joel Rosenberg who was in ABQ for the weekend.

Blurry two weeks

A few weeks have flashed by, starting with Heidi as Hope Homecoming Princess during the weekend Levi was in town to host a Love Life event with Mark Driscoll at Mars Hill Church.

From there, let's see, a couple days in Denver for radio consulting, off to LA for a film meeting and some time at the Trinity Broadcasting Network, followed by a week in Montana for the Fresh Life Board meeting and another in Miami to work with Joel Rosenberg and Pedro Garcia. Travel is playing havoc with my training, as I am ramping up to a ride in December from Key Largo to Key West, Fla. I have to be very creative finding spin classes and health clubs. Challenging.
