And What Did I See Out My Office Window…?

Remote control airplane

 

Of course, it seems unfair that, while on a call for work, I have to see someone having fun with a remote control airplane. 🙂

Work in or around Strasburg? What is the strangest or coolest thing you’ve seen out of the window at work?

A Tale of Two Dogs

May 18, 2015 by Alan 2 Comments

Being a fan of puns, I was think of titling this “A Tail of Two Dogs”…but after my horrible “remiss” versus “amiss” in yesterday’s post…I figured…maybe not. 🙂

Meet Gloria and Bear:

Can you guess which is which…and which one is 13 years old and which is just a few months? 🙂

Less than One Week (Praise God)

April 25, 2015 by Alan Leave a Comment

Happy "less than a week and we are the homeowners" :-)This posts appears on two of my blogs, Strasburg.Rocks and Traditores. It will seem a bit odd on the former…but it speaks to the intersection of both in the form of the purchase of property in the friendly, small town of Strasburg, Colorado.

Although I am continually thankful to the Lord, I hesitate to make certain statements because they can be presumptuous. For instance, if when you have an unexpected bill you can’t afford just enough money shows up, is it fair to say, “The Lord sent the $$$?” I mean beyond the general providence of God…did He really personally ensure you received that cash? Sure, at a minimum, He didn’t prevent it from showing up…but did the Most High specifically fill the expense versus income gap?

Now, I am not questioning whether you should thank God in cases like that. You should. I am questioning whether it is presumptuous to say The Almighty divinely stepped into your timeline and changed something.

Soon We’ll Be Strasburg Homeowners!

March 23, 2015 by Alan Leave a Comment

Our new house-to-beNot only did we eat at The Patio Cafe a couple times this weekend :-), but we are proud to say that we also put a contract on a house in Strasburg! As you can see, it’s still under construction (e.g. it needs to be painted and to have grass installed), but we couldn’t be more excited. Pictured here are Michelle, Augie, and Ron from Pauls Homes.Continue Reading
