Thanks for sharing the videos so I could lament about what I missed! And yet still got the blessing! Gary loved your closing message as it seems to be more and more common in my age group. I was reminded of two things:
1) When God showed up in a very intimate way for the first time in my life at 55 I fell in love with a God all over again. Then I asked Him why to took so long for me to experience Him in this way he said because “you were not ready.” He told me I needed to live for the last 30 years in a life of duty before I would appreciate this new relationship. I could have felt bad about that but new that I could only move forward and share that new experience with others. And this lesson has given me so much patience with myself, my family and with others… to pray for them, to love them and then let God do what only He can do.
2) To not be discouraged in parenting as “The first 40 years of parenting are always the hardest.” As quoted by Kevin Leman in The Birth Order Book.
Love and miss you guys!

Hey Caleb, check with Thomas Monarch (see above). I’ll be riding with him and I think he may have room for you.
