update.

so i haven't wrote for a while an plan on writing more often. so i'll make this blog short and concise. this summer was too busy to find a place to start so i'll hit the highlights...

mexico, sasquatch music festival, camping, fly fishing, trip to missouri to my synthia's family, elk hunting trip, my brother is in iraq so we went to MT to see him off, wedding in st. loius. doesn't sound too busy, but it was and everything is going great. i'll leave you with an updated picture from the wedding, i'll be adding more pics later... and a very interesting story that was told in a book i am reading. i found it interesting and thought i'd share...

An old man and his son worked a small farm, with only one horse to pull the plow. One day, the horse ran away.
"How horrible," sympathized the neighbors. "what bad luck."
"Who knows whether it is bad luck or good luck," the farmer replied.
A week later, the horse returned from the mountains, leading five wild mares into the barn.
"What wonderful luck!" said the neighbors.
"Good luck? Bad luck? Who knows?" answered the old man.
The next day, the son, trying to tame one of the horses, fell and broke is leg.
"How horrible. What bad luck!"
"Bad luck? Good luck?"

The army came to all the farms to take the young men for war, but the farmer's son was no use to them, so he was spared.
"Good? Bad?"
