Groto Falls

Our family just returned from a fantastic vacation.  We drove nine hours east on I-90 into the beautiful state of Montana.  The picture above was taken about 15 miles from where we camped, just outside of Bozeman, home of MSU. 

My apologies for slacking on this blog.  I'm in a time of reevaluating why I'm doing this thing.  It's been a great way to work on my writing and communication skills.  I've also built some new friendships with bloggers outside my little eastern WA world, 2 of whom I've had the privilege of meeting personally.  The rub comes down to time and motivation.  Thanks to everyone who has been interested in what God has been doing in my life.  Much love.

Sometimes it is hard to keep going, but you just need to keep posting and being proactive, then people will start reading and leaving comments. That makes it fun. I had to limit my sphere of people that I read everyday. Try to improve on current relationships rather than always trying to make a bunch of new buddies. Ya know?

Thanks for your thoughts, bro. You've been a great encouragement over the last few months regarding this blog. Your blog is looking awesome, by the way!

I've really enjoyed blogging. I haven't regretted it at all. I'm just reevaluating whether to continue or not. If I do continue I think I may change the focus. The random thing has been fun but I would love to blog with friends who desire to dive into similar waters...perhaps a study group. I'm ready for something new.

[hale-yeah!]

kind of like a long distance small group? did you know that you can password protect your blog too? our church has a leadership one that requires a password to get into. that might be kind of cool for the small group thing. not like i have enough time to be in another group!

[James Paul]

Yeah...I'm in one like that right now that's password protected. I've been going through the "Listening Prayer" book listed on my left sidebar with the author, Seth Barnes. Everyone is able to share their own take on the material. Cool!

I do not think it is fair that you get to post pictures from our trip from my camera. You have exclusivity for all the wrong reasons. BTW... what are you doing to your blog? I can't read 1/2 of it.

Glad your back man .. I was tired of looking at those suitcases!

Go Seahawks .. 1 and 0 baby!

[Los]

Welcome back

[Pastor Paul]

Yeah, I was getting tired of the suitcases, too. I just dealt with it by actually calling you.
So, is it a bad thing when your wife has to harass you via your blog?
Go Griz!
Praying for ya.

[James Paul]

Thanks for the prayers. Go Cats!

[DeeP]

I don't just harass him here, Paul.
It's just much more apparent here.
Forget your petty rivalries boys ~ Go Seahawks!

Jim,

Nice new look. Hey, keep posting and let us know about the rest of the journey when it comes to Groto Falls and Bozeman. Good job leading worship today! God was present taking pleasure in you and us!
