3 DAY Supporters

Just a short note to 3 DAY Supporters. Marge, Cheri and I have received enough donations ($2200 minimum from each of us) to qualify for participation in the 3 day walk - September 12, 13, & 14. We have a lot of people to thank - our friends and family members who contributed, both in money and in other types of support - helping us fundraise, walking with us and cheering us on our way. This includes our "Pink for Patty" team namesake - Patty. The actual event will be a real celebration and you are all invited to join the pink crowds in Seattle. Just in case you are interested, the 3 DAY people offer this supporters' link: http://www.the3day.org/site/PageServer?pagename=SE_Supporter

I'm a happy Grandpa Pat (Gramma Patty's pleased too)

Yes. As Devonne said, I'm going to be a grandpa for the fourth time. Oh, did I say "fourth"? I guess that's because Devonne is faster with her news than Kelley is with hers. That's right, Kelley and Jesse are expecting their first child around St. Patrick's Day, somewhere around a month before Devonne and John. (Stay tuned for Devonne's actual date.) Since I'm posting this message from Kelley's dial-up conection in Yakima, I understand her delay in sharing this news on the blog. (It's sloooooow.)

On another front: Patty and I have a house. It appears that our years of renting are coming to an end. The house is in Bremerton and has just the amenities we need; a big kitchem for Patty and a small yard for me.

It's a happy house, don't you think? Cheri said it was smiling.


Patty's big kitchen. Did I mention the hard wood floors? Pat's small yard. (Yes, this is the whole yard.)

Well, that's the news for now . . . one more thing, please keep Daniel (and Emma) in prayer during his time of service to our country. God bless you, Daniel.

Did I mention I got a job?

I know my parents know but maybe everyone else would like to know. I got a job. I work at Uncles Games in Redmond Town Center about 20min from my house. It's a fun job, I sell board games, chess sets, role-playing books, and dice. My co-workers are fun though the oldest turned 18 last week. I work nights and weekends most of the time so if you're in Redmond some night after 6:00 stop on by.
