A Great Washington Weekend

Um...hehehehehe.... Need I say more!

I would like to say thanks to the Lake family for a wonderful time!
I loved it!
From horse back riding, raking leaves, running and an early Christmas with awesome new friends, it is a time I will cherish.

The Epic Last Days ~

The white stallion has been passed on to my last bishop.

Elder and Sister Hench. They gave me a ride to the mission home.

Elder Williams, my last companion.

He's a big boy.

And I am small...er.

Two years since the MTC and we're still together. Well, .. most of us.

Flight plans.

Study was the only thing that brought peace in this moment of sorrow.

Who said I was crying? I wasn't crying. Someone was just cutting onions on the plane.

Still at work. We had a nice visit and I gave him a Book of Mormon that I bought in the MTC. It's sister copy I gave to a man on the flight to California. Bookends to a great journey.

Do I really have to say anything?

DC Ragnar and Life in Louisiana

What I did for two hours at the airport. BTW - Thomas Jefferson has very difficult handwriting to read, but I read the whole thing.

Me and Roddy..... we're the guys that hang at the back of the bus.

7 kids with one on the way.... Pretty impressive!

The Care Bear Stare!!!!!!

The sleeping quarters reminded me of a wrestling tournament.

Mike's hand off!

Everyone I passed (all 42 of them) will remember this back side!

Just so they know who they are losing to.
*****
The Finish line. Fighting Tortuga Loggerheads were the 39th team to cross the finish line. Official finish to be posted later.

I did it! I did it! I won a can opener!

Zeus at the beach. This was an awesome playground.

This one's for dad.....
I never knew that such a nasty candy would have a headquarters.

Successful Trip!
(I got $50 for it on eBay- NOT!)

And the hero flies off into the sunrise.

Life in Louisiana-
The best place in town!

Life in Louisiana is fantastic! I have everything a young man could want. A job, a good family, a swimming pool, the church and Institute! Need I say more?

Early morning Scripture Study.

After an average day at work.

Anyone want a hug?
