We’re Back

Hey everyone I’m back, returned from my glorious second honeymoon, recharged and ready to write.

Well…all except for that last part.

It was a great trip. I won’t say our cabin was hard to find, but after 45 minutes of wandering around lost, on streets that could have passed for roller coaster tracks, we found this:

redbud

Which was only appropriate since I brought this gift for Camille:

Funny Farm Manuscript

If you don’t find this funny, I can only assume that you are tragically Funny Farm illiterate

(Get the cure here)

But we did find our romantic retreat eventually and had a wonderful time in the wilderness, with nothing but me, the HCM, some good books, and a view like this:*1

And now that we’re back, we are getting geared up for our daughter’s wedding which is now a mere three weeks away. In fact, I have to get ready for her wedding shower in just a few minutes.

I have some new ideas for this space but they are on the back burner for right now as I attempt the challenging task being more fully present in the lives of those I love.

Of course if you get bored here you can always visit me on facebook, twitter, or my new YouTube channel: What Brent Says.

Happy Sunday

See you soon

Arrrgh! That Funny Farm joke is very very good. I must tell you that.

It was fun. And when it comes to anniversaries, fun trumps therapy any day.

Of course if you would like to join the Funny Farm Awareness Coalition, I would gladly welcome you. Of course I’d have to form it first…

Some of you may remember that crazy email a few years ago where there a beautiful scene and a nice driving down a curvy road. The music is playing softly and then the scary jumps into the scene and scares the pee out of everyone who watched it. I was with Brent while he filmed the beautiful view, but I was still half expecting a scary guy to jump out. Much relieved that it was simply beautiful scenery!
