Early December Updates

The mountain continues to rule the mornings around here. On the morning shift we have Felicia, Melissa and your bobJuan handling the crazy hour. Stories and an occasional camera-phone picture are floatin around about Bobby & Bonnie covering the afternoons. This morning at 6 there were so many cars on Invergorden we thought maybe we missed the memo or the entire party!

This past Sunday, Bobby, Jordyn, Noah and I went up in the daytime. What a beautiful mountain. We were coaching the two newbies about being careful on the way down. I told them I was hoping they wouldn't have to learn the hard way. When we got back to the truck, Noah stuck up his bloody arm, proud as all hell, "I guess I had to learn the hard way". I told his Mom later it's pretty much the way I've learned everything important in my life.

And now for some bobJuan one-liners:

From Barbara Kingsolver's The Bean Trees: If I didn’t let my mind run too far ahead, I felt completely happy

Here's one with two possibilities: Don’t get your happiness confused with your circumstances. [or] Don’t let your circumstances get in the way of your happiness.

You figure out what they are: I dreamed about um last nite, they were the kind you dream about.

In the kitchen, what 1 minute can do to a cookie, 5 seconds can do to a tortilla. I’ve seen milk go even quicker.

And finally: The stuff was so good he was charging just to look at it.
