Ice Trucker.....

I was driving home from Seward today and there was a accident that blocked the road after 1 1/2 hrs of sitting and waiting the State Troopers came around and said the only way around is across Longmere Lake I can't make you go but heres how to get there.....
So after thinking of every scenerio of how my van would go crashing through the ice I did it, I became a ice trucker for about 3 min.... They had a two lane road plowed across the lake with traffic going both ways this was a first for me. What a place to live where and emergency detour is across a frozen lake.

Meaningless.....

I was driving home from Anchorage today listening to talk radio. I get so mad about what is going on with things it makes me sick!!! I stopped listening to the news because it gets me so discouraged with the direction this country and the world are heading and how it is going to affect my children and our future. Then I remembered something.......
" Vanity of Vainty! all is Vainity a chasing after the wind."
How quickly I forget and we all do, that all this we see is meaningless and of no lasting value.
Jesus said, "come to Me all you who are weary and heavy laden and I will give you rest..."
So "The conclusion when all as been heard is: Fear God and keep his commandments. For God will bring every act to judgement..." Ecclesiastes12:13-14.

Opening Day...

I have decided that the time has come to start my own blog. After a couple of minor confrontations on what to post and not to post on the family blog, I thought it best that you all should have my unfiltered view on things. So today is "Opening Day" for me and my blog.
So brace your self for the upcoming wisdom, insight, and humor sure to come from Pauls Perspective..... :)
