So I’ve decided to do some new stuff on my site. Every Monday, I’m going to put up a quote that I’ve found to be meaningful, or just cool…
On Wednesday’s, I’m going to put up a video from YouTube that I feel is worthy to be viewed by others…haha…and since it’s me…you may come across some pretty random stuff!
I figure it’ll be cool to do something different and who knows, maybe you guys will look forward to what I’m going to put up. So yeah, I’m gonna start this next week : )

Israel & New Breed’s newest album “A Deeper Level” comes out September 4th! I was just listening to a few tracks and I’m really looking forward to this album’s release. I could tell that they stepped out of their box, doing some new stuff with their style, which was cool. So yeah, I’m excited…I must’ve listened to their new song “Say So” about ten times already…haha…I love it!
Oh yeah, “Big” Mike Clemons is still a beast on the drums! How are New Breed’s musicians so stinkin good!?
Let the redeemed of the Lord say so…say so…say so!

I’ll be heading back to Portland tonight. I don’t have much to say, and I also have to pack, so I’ll leave you guys with this…
- I love Portland summers! With friends, the city, the Oregon Coast, and lakes near by, it doesn’t get any better than that. However, having my family around would be the icing on the cake…
- I’m really bummed I haven’t gone to as many Seattle Mariners games as I hoped I would. I’m really excited I’m going to one later this week…
- Of all the years the MLB All Star game goes to the city of San Francisco, it just HAS to be the year I no longer live in California! Yeah, it’s frustrating, because trust me! I would’ve gone if I were down there. To top it off, I barely watched it on T.V…
- So far, I’ve been to eleven different states. Having just gone to three more, this summer will go down as one of the best ever…
- I miss hanging out with the F.B.C.. when you get all of us together, it’s pretty much a guaranteed fact that were gonna have a good time…
- I love to travel…
- I was supposed to be born a girl. Imagine that! Hmm…I wonder what my name would’ve been…
- I’ve never been out of the United States, I hope that changes soon, real soon…
- I really miss playing the drums during worship…
- I only did this because Sarah did and it looked cool…the end…
Amazing… July 28, 2007

Never in my life have I been to a more exciting baseball game than the one I just attended, it was amazing! Barry Bonds hit homerun 754 putting him one behind Hank Aaron for the all-time home run list. Every time he came to the plate all 41,000 fans in attendance stood to their feet and chanted Barry! Barry! Barry! Ahhhh, it was great! The Giants walked away with the win beating Florida 12-10…
Anyway, I’ve been asked to play this Sunday with our worship team at church, and we have a practice in eight hours…haha…I think I need to go to bed : )
Till next time…

To everyone that comes to this site, thank you! Today I had the most hits ever, doubling the old “Best Day Ever” amount of hits. So again, to everyone that finds time throughout their day to stop by and check this site out, thank you! The thought alone of knowing there are people that read everything on here is an encouragement to myself to keep writing.
On another note, I’m leaving here pretty soon to meet up with an old friend. We’re gonna catch a Giants game in San Francisco. It should be fun…
Till next time…

We’re in New Jersey waiting for our flight to Dallas. From there we’re going to Oakland and then heading back to Antioch. New York was a blast! Last night I hung out with an old friend that moved to New York for a church plant. We walked over to the old J.P. Morgan building, which will be the home of their church and it was very nice! With the New York Stock Exchange on one side, Donald Trump’s offices on the other, and sniper guards patrolling the area, visiting New York City Church became a highlight of the trip.
Yesterday we took a tour of the city seeing everything from Central Park, Ground Zero, the Brooklyn Bridge, Times Square, Statue of Liberty, and the pew that George Washington worshipped from. It was really cool. We didnt have to many encounters with celebrities, but we did meet Jackie Mason, who rose to be one of America’s hottest comics in the early 1960’s.
For me, the highlight of the trip was the tour through Yankee Stadium, it was amazing! The best part was when we toured the locker room, the same place Babe Ruth, Mickey Mantle, Joe DiMaggio, Roger Marris, and all of the other great Yankee players once spent countless of hours before and after games. Currently the locker room is filled with personal items that belong to people such as Derek Jeter, Alex Rodriguez, Mariano Rivera, Roger Clemens, Jason Giambi, ect. For any baseball fan, being in an atmosphere like that brings an appreciation that most wouldn’t understand. Another thing I will never forget was when 40 thousand plus all sang God Bless America before the 7th inning of the Yankees Game on Sunday. I guess you could say singing this song is a tradition in the Bronx.
Thanks to Luis, I have a ton of photos that I will post soon. So yeah, it’s been a great trip and I’m looking forward to spending some time with old friends back in Antioch.
Till next time…

What better way to get introduced to the “Big Apple” than to have a crazy Taxi driver drive you through the city? He was insane! I think he was driving so crazy because I made him mad, on accident that is, but I still made him mad…haha…if you want to know the story I can explain later…
We just got done walking through the city. Times Square was amazing! The empire state building was very cool, and the people here are very rude. I don’t have internet connection where I’m staying so I may not post again for a few days, I’m able to write this because I paid a small fee to surf the web for a bit.
We head for the Yankees game tomorrow, it’s gonna be sweet!
Till next time…
