Today was a national holiday, although you may have missed it. We sold our two apartment buildings. A big event for us! No we didn’t make a profit, but we did get most of our money back out of our 21 units. We left our sweat equity in the wiring, plumbing and paint. They say, “The greater the tuition the better the education.” In that case we have had a splendid education the past 7 years!
I have honed my business, management and remodeling skills. I have had the opportunity to meet and interact with a number of people and in the process bring a little salt into situations.
While we may not have come out of the sale with financial wealth it is my hope that somehow our labors may have a heavenly return. In my faulty way I have sought to share the light of Jesus with our renters. I know some have been touched.
Pam and I and our daughter Anna celebrated by going to The Island in Pigeon Forge, riding the 200 feet high Ferris wheel, eating spaghetti ice, visiting a jewelry shop and listening to some outdoor music.
As a “by the way” – August 10th is Pam’s 60th BD! I asked Pam If I could put on a party for her but she said, “No.” However if you would like to send her a card I’m sure she would like that. Please no jokes about getting older.
Our address is

Pam’s email is [email protected]
