Im sitting here on the runway for a minute (thanks houston for once again slowing me down.. ) and I'm mulling over yesterday. After ATF I had the chance to hang out w/ my cousin for a while.. for those that don't know my cousin was like my brother growing up.. I was an only child growing up till I was about 10 so he was a lot more like a brother than a cousin.
Anyway we got to kick it for most of the day.. he drove down from Denver and we got to catch up on a lot of things since we hadn't really seen eachother for a few years. I was done w/ Atf by 630 and so we decided to drive up in the mountains since I'ma florida boy and haven't really been able to expierience the mountains etc.. We stopped and snapped some pics and I got a crazy idea that I wanted to climb a rock (see picture) and take some shots.
Well the funny thing is that in the midst of this it reminded me how in some ways me and him are opposites (which is a good thing) he runs and jumps out on some rocks hanging 20 feet from the ground and he starts climbing them in SANDALS!! NO FEAR!! I'm standing to the side like ... "yeahhh oooohhhkaayyy" and then he's like "see I did it.. now you try". Keep in mind I'm slightly afraid of heights not to mention I've never climbed a rock in my life..
At one point I was like.. can't I stand over here and you can snatch the picture? He was sooo fearless and was like "just go for it". Anyway as you can tell I did it and I was glad I conqured my slight fear (smile..).
I just wanted to say Jon thanks for always diving in fearless and doing it.. while guys like me (mr. analyze the situation) stand and play it safe (which is good sometimes but ya know..) you inspire me to GO FOR IT!
I really enjoyed our time kicking it together at least for a few hrs.. your daughter is beautiful.. I'm proud of you bro. I pray for you daily and I felt like we were kids again .. (out camping w/ your mom and getting in trouble like always ha ha..)
Anyway.. just a little update.. no podcast this time since I'm on dial up and my connection keeps cutting out.
God bless yall
