| So we're off to Turner Falls in Oklahoma to do the camping thing. I use to go there every summer with my mom and dad. They have a lot of really good scenery and this one waterfall that is pretty cool. Hopefully we can give Solomon a lot of good memories there and make a few new ones ourselves.

| Today Solly is 7 years old. Today we slept in until 10:40. We are now planning on going to Ihop for breakfast then going to grapevine mills for some shopping fun....this is the day that Solly has planned for all of us, there may even be some golfing involved a little later today.
For those of you who have kids you understand when I say that every single day you dont really look back at the growth of your child, yourself, and your family...but there are some events that make you stop and look back at where you once were and where you are now. Today has been one of those days.
From first bringing him home and Marie and I were only 21 feeling happy, tired, scared, and lucky----to Solly being 2 and running through our house with a brown leather jacket on, a rabbit skin on his head and a play knife in the waste band of his boxers singing "Davy Crockett" at the top of his lungs for hours on end while the tv show is going on in the back ground---- to driving on one of family trips and hearing Marie and Solly telling jokes for hundred of miles and it always being funny because we would get jokes from Solly like "knock knock....whos there.....jupiter.......juptier who.......PANTIES!!!" I still dont know but it was hilarious to Solly.
For those of you who dont have kids you have a great life in front of you. It will only be better when shared with someone that you get and they get you....and no matter how young or old your children are there will always be a connection there that is other worldly. Every now and then, Solly can get scared or embarrassed or upset , but for no other reason than he is half me, I know exactly how he is feeling and why. There has been no other person or thing that has every opened my eyes more to the love of God than watching my son grow up.
I look forward to him getting older and learning and growing and one day having the same love and joy that I have because of him....but if I could stop him from growing up I would be very tempted to keep him as he is forever.
I love him more than life itself.
peace

| for my friends and fans alike, i have let you down by not keeping up with you and you up-to-date with me....
so here is my redemptive efforts coming your way.
I have been getting more work than I can handle and the great thing is that it sitting and doing nothing. train dispatching will kick your arse from time to time, but the recent flooding in the mid American states has also covered my railroad lines with water, and we all know that trains cant move when there is water over the tracks. I do have to resist the feelings that I am getting one over on the company because when the water come down, the arse whoopins' really commence.
On a more joyous note, we picked our first tomato from the vine today. It was warm and delicious. There are tons more on the vine that are still green. There are so many that they are just lying on the ground. Anyone is more than welcome to come and share in our great tomatoes that will be getting ripe any day now.

| So all I do it seems lately is work my ass off at work. It isnt hard physical work, but the mental fatigue and stress is really tough....so I am starting to play golf again. I use to play all the time, and for those that know me as only a hardcore metal God, it may to as a surprise that I was on the varsity golf team in high school, and I believe 100% that if it wasnt for the strained relationship between myself and mom&pop sharp at daniel hall, I would have played golf for OBU (their son was the golf coach)....he wanted to "red shirt me for a year"even though I went and played a few times with the team and beat someont on the team each time....oh well im obviously not bitter. It is looking like it is going to be getting nice around the Ince house. Marie's last day at work will be this friday, June 15th. She will be staying home with Solomon. I love it, she loves it, and Solomon will love it. It will be real nice to have her home because with my schedule at work so wierd, we will be able to see a lot more of each other when she isnt working. Have fun and know that if I could move back to Arkansas with my job, I would be there tomorrow. I miss all of my friends there really bad. I think of you all everyday.....seriously. hearts out, jon oh yeah, solomon will be 6 this sunday, june 17th. Man he is such a good boy. I cant imagine being any more proud him than I already am. He makes Marie and I very happy. Jon | | |
