Heading to Mom and Dad’s tomorrow for Jennie’s wedding on Sat (and yes Jen, I now know that the wedding is at 3:30pm). First, I have to pick up G’ma and G’pa Johnson at the Indy airport. My brothers and I will be ushers.

Last Sat, I went to Mark Dismore’s New Castle Motorsports Park. I was helping Trevor with his shifter kart. It’s a neat facility. I’d like to get out there again.

Ryan, Matt, and Greg seconds before ringing in 2005. As you can see, shoes and socks are already off in preparation of running around the house bare-footed at midnight. It is a tradtion started many years ago by my grandpa, Jim Bever. This year it was the ground was saturated. Besides getting mud everywhere, the conditions made for decent barefoot running. Some years, the ground is frozen and there is no snow. That is the worst condition to run in. My favorite is when there is a lot of snow….cold, but soft and clean.

I’m back home after a few days off.

Some highlights of my time off:
Leaving when there’s no snow in Mitchell, Mitchell getting 20″+ of snow, but it all melting by the time I arrive back home.
Matt and Neil doing snow angels in just their shorts and boots at night when it was probably around 6 degrees outside.
Going to Christmas Eve Service when it was -14 degrees.
Spilling the Communion crackers during the Christmas Eve service.
Making a snowman that was at least 8.5 ft tall.
Waking up at 1:30 am to help Dad fix a broken pipe in the well when it was 40 degrees outside (4 days after it had been -14 degrees).
And once again running around the house barefooted with my cousins to bring in the new year (eventhough the wife, finance, and girlfriend who were there didn’t join in on the fun )
