Rodeo/Road Update
Well so much for daily updates on the Rodeo.We (Kjel, Nate, Bethel Lutheran Roseville, CA) wrapped things up Sunday morning and we drove back to Kjel’s place in Phoenix. The second we refers to Kjel and I – the congregation didn’t feel like making a 12 hour drive with us. So after two Del Tacos and one Starbucks we pulled into Phoenix around 1 am (about 8 hours ago as I write) We were definitely ready to be off the road. My big dilemma now is whether or not to grind coffee beans while Kjel’s still asleep. Will he appreciate that I’m making coffee and easing him into the day at a reasonable hour? Or would he rather I sit here with a caffeine headache and the mental clarity of a moose?Grind on.While that’s percolating allow me to give you the briefest of updates on the last week.welcome, creative, 4 instruments, great kids, great adults, power tools, sharp knives, home depot, great food, strong coffee, morning runs, pool, song writing, art art art, beautiful weather, snack on, snack to it, metaphor, liturgy, learning, growing, experiment, positive.Now I’m going to drink this coffee (with Kjel who coincidentally is awake now) put on my least dirty shirt (10 days, one carry on, one load of wash you do the math) get on a plane, go to MN and hug my three favorite girls until they tell me to go take a shower and put on a clean shirt.
