CLICK TO DO GOOD - Buy my friend David Johnson's book, Voices of Sudan. All profits go to building wells in Sudan. Besides this, it's an awesome book.

Read about the book here.

No pics... the camera has broken down.



Alright I've been in Southern California for going on 4 days now. I'm currently in Claremont and I lost in a three-setter yesterday. I lost the first set easy, then broke once to win the second. In the third I was up a break 2-1 and he broke right back... I wasn't happy with that at all. This is my first ITF tournament appearance since Joplin, Missouri and I am still sanding the rust off this machine.

Of course since I lost I went into town and found a streetcorner gig at the music & gallery hop that just happened to be going on then. I spoke with a few of the artists and they hooked me up with the man in charge of the event, who gave me a great place where I could play my pipes. I went to the van, geared up in my full Irish kilt and regalia and did the gig... made pretty good money and then headed to the local Wal-Mart where I parked my van and went to sleep.

The view of the mountains here in Claremont is spectacular. I'm planning on hiking to the top of one tomorrow.

Thoughts:

Back in the van life again.
Camping is good for the soul.
I'm alone but not lonely.
Everybody is a loser until they win.
Why do people choose to worship the God they have created instead of the God who created them? Does this not make them worshipers of themselves???
Where did all the good people go?
Today is a beautiful day and I am quite thankful to be alive.

Hoping that Luke, Tim & Rob can take a trip out here to experience the van life for a few days...!

Signing off...
