WOW that weekend went by rapidly.  I hope yours was fun and family oriented.  We had a wedding on the 4th , despite the rain it was fun.  Enjoyed some fireworks with friends.  But what I really enjoyed was the annual family parade in Stonegate, near Parker.  My daughters live near there and we always get the granchildren all decked out fourth of July style.  Hundreds of families show up, we walk behind a hugh South Metro fire truck.  Afterwards ther is snow cones, face painting and lots of fun.  I really enjoy the pre-parade, when the boy scouts present the colors and we all sing the National Anthem.  You talk about the all-american 4th of July, this truly one.  Take a look at the pictures, Greyson went nuts with the fire truck.

I haven’t said much since the passing of Micheal Jackson.  But in my opinion there are 2 of him.  You have the highly talented singer and dancer of 70’s and 80’s fame.  Then you have this guy ,who I don’t know, that has many plastic surgeries, dangle kids off balconies and has many issues.  That is accused of many things, many not good.  After the past few days since his death,watching and listening I choose one to remember.  I pick the highly entertaining and talented Micheal Jackson.  I had the chance to see him in concert at the old McNichols arena..it’s one concert I won’t forget.  Also ,now it is apparent he was fairly generous with his money, helping many causes.  Take a look at this mural that is a tribute to him.  It is painted on the side of an old building at 3rd and Ashley in Longmont.  That’s the guy I will remember

You know how much I love golf.  Take a look at this video….this could be a whole new challenge!!

I was honored last friday as …Man of The Year..by the Arthiritis Foundation.  It was a great evening, they made fun of me, they said nice things about me.  I had the whole family there, one of those special moments.  I want thank the Foundation for such a great honor.  I want to congratulate my fellow recipents…Mort Marx…Dick Saunders and Jay Davidson.  Here are a couple of pictures.  It’s me and Carol and the other great guys.

Happy Cinco De Mayo!!….have a taco today!! We wrapped up Quarters for kids yesterday with big Victory Breakfast at Strings.  I love this big finale!!  All the kids bring in their quarters, tell us how they raised the money.  It’s all about the kids helping kids.  A quarter will feed a child in a homeless shelter a breakfast to start their day.  We’ve done this campaign for over 19 years.  Rocky, the Nuggets Mascot, and Mark Randall were on hand to help us.  Thousands of dollars were raised all in quarters.  Take a look at the picture of the kids at Rolling Hills Elementary school.  See all the quarters on the tables?…great job.

Hey, hope all of you hve a great weekend.  Go Nuggets!!..I always like to leave you with a little funny for the weekend.  Guys more proof that we don’t no respect…enjoy

If you went to college you remember the fun we had in the dorm rooms.  We would do all kinds of things, none of which involved studying.  However I never had the kind of fun these guys had behind closed doors.  I wish I could do these tricks NOW….enjoy

So the other night Carol and I went to see a play…A Prayer for Owen Meany..very good.  When we got home we discovered that Bailey, one of our dogs, had not been good.  Carol the day before had just baked two loaves of Banana bread, one with chocolate chips.  We placed them way back on the counter in the kitchen so Bailey, the big dog, would not get at them.  Well you guessed it , he got both of them.  I was freaked, I couldn’t sleep all night long,I heard Bailey walking around.  I was sure he was going to do something really nasty in the house because he was sick.  Well , he never got sick thank goodness.  Plus he got the last laugh, he finally went to sleep and I couldn’t…awake..until I came to work.  Oh, don’t forget, he also got all of the delicious Banana bread !!

Glad you all survived the big Spring storm. I had about 20 inche at my place, thank goodness for Big Red.  That’s my hugh snow blower, I don’t get use if often but when I need it ..WOW.  Plus all my neighbors want me to do their driveways, which of course I do.  I always like to help, plus I love the free beer they give me to say thanks.  Hey need a good laugh today?  Watch this video and enjoy!
