Running and Messy

Today it's 58 stinkin degrees. But if that's not bad enough, it's raining today - drizzly, really. I like cold and I don't mind rain, but I don't like them together, especially since the day of the big run is just a week away.

So. . .I had some breakfast, some coffee, and a great time with God. Now it's not raining, though it's still cold. So, I'm off to get in some miles. Today - 5 miler. Will mix in some fartleks to get the legs and lungs pumping. The rest of the run will be easy - not easy as in no problem, but easy as in pace.

Gotta go before it begins to rain again.

Later 'Gator,
Mike

58 degrees is cold!?! You should come up North and run. Today my team is going to work out in 42 degree weather with a steady drizzle. We call that "good weather" around here.

Happy Running!

Question for You

I was listening to one of the local radio stations - kwyq, The Way FM, this morning on the way to the office. They were asking the question, "If you could live in a totally Christian community would you?" Responses varied. I would be interested in knowing what you think. So. . .I pose the question to you. . . If you could live in a totally Christian community would you? Why or why not? I can't wait to read your responses. Mike

Camp is Good!

I'm home from a week at a student camp - Camp Chaparral . I was there teaching students how God created them for a place of ministry and encouraging them to involved - somehow. . .somewhere. I was also the guest of Pam & Steve Sparks. They are wonderful friends from my Lufkin days. Steve is the Assistant Director of the camp. Better give a shout out to the staff - Hey Mike, David, Heather, Doug, Tim, Nate, Govani (spelling?) - thanks for a great week. These guys work really, really hard to make your camp stay the greatest. And it was. But I'm exhausted! I'm beginning to wonder if I'm getting too old for this kind of thing? The worship was great - thanks to the brown band ! Hey Michell, Gabi, Rooster, Noah, and #14. They'll get it. Jon Randles really challenged us with his messages - 7 Marks of a Disciple . Need a speaker that speaks truth with wisdom? Get Randles. College or students. He's good. But the late nights and early mornings - WHEW!!

Favorite Cereals

As I was scarfing down a bowl of Total I was thinking about my favorite cereals. Cereal has always been a part of our family - it didn't matter whether it was grabbing a bowl before school and sitting with my Grandpa as he at a bowl of Raisin Bran after church on Sunday nights. Growing up I had my faves. I would still eat them, but me and a lot of sugar in the morning is no bueno. As many of you can attest, it's not like I need more sugar! So I also have favorites now. Here's my list of favorite cereals: Then Cap'n Crunch - the original and all-time favorite, and breakfast with the Cap'n - how do you beat that? Frosted Flakes - don't get soggy in milk Peanut Butter Crunch - Cap'n Crunch and peanut butter, what's not to like? Wheat Chex - add a banana, mmmm. . .mmmmm. . .good! Now Total - good for you and doesn't get soggy too quickly Kellogg's Low Fat Granola without Raisins - good all around cereal Wheat Chex - still like me a bowl o
