About me: Having taught theatre and English for nearly 30 years in the Oregon public school system, I now am enjoying dabbling in other ventures. Since my retirement I have taught a year in private school, exchanged 3 years of doing custodial work 2x per week to reduce tuition for our son, sold furniture for 6 months, run unsuccessfully for Benton County Commissioner (I wasn't elected.), driven school bus for 5 months, and am presently driving people from the Willamette Valley to the Portland airport and back 4x per week as a fulltime employee of HUT SHUTTLE. In my spare time I have directed an all female production for a woman's ministry since 2003 although that has been shelfed for over a year. I am presently serving as a member on 2 different non-profit boards and will be a founding member of a nonprofit organization which is presently being formulated. I also help my wife and her ministry partner minister the Father's Love once a quarter to a number of individuals.
The newest news is that my oldest daughter Alicia is expecting our 1st grandson in June (which we are tickled blue over) and I am working on a one man show which hopefully will debut sometime in the latter part of this year, 2008. Other than that I stay active with our 6 year old prayer group once a week (3 couples...originally 5) and try to connect with my children whenever possible.
Who I'd like to meet: Tiger Woods, people who love to keep learning, believers who continue to overcome obstacles in their lives, Jesus lovers
Hey Ron ~ I was thinking about your and your family. Hope all is going well with you and them. All is going well here. Next weekend I will head to Dallas for a week and help out at a festival for my VP. But Shannon and I have plans to hit San Antonio and Austin for a few days first. Keep me posted on what's been going on with you. Take care.

REMEMBER:
"Each and every day we start with a blank canvas. It is all the actions that we take that are the strokes painting the beautiful portrait to our life. - the black and white landscape colored in by the emotions of our day." ~Henry Weinacker
YOU are the artist of your week. Here's to creating a beautiful masterpiece!
"If you could go through life with just one emotion, let it be Belief - Belief in others, Belief in yourself, and Belief in Someone greater than us. After all, it is the lack of belief that is the real root to one's hesistance in life. BELIEF trumps Fear." ~ Henry
Book Release 2008
I hope you have a blessed finish to the week. Keep smiling every second and remember that Belief is one of the most beautiful gifts you can give another person.

Hello Paparon ~ I was thinking about you today...how's everything with you and yours? I hope well. Just got in last night from Maryland...went to the cabin for a long weekend and go snow tubing. In two weeks Shannon will be in Columbus for work, so I will be going down to meet up with her. Other than that I'm just keeping busy with work and stuff. Hope all is well & please tell Heather I said "Hello".
Thanks for all your encouragement Mr. Wright. You and your family are truly a blessing I am very thankful for.
God truly has a special place for you, and thank you for never backing down on your faith, speaking His word and showing God's love and kindness, and that little nudge if needed. You and your family make my day brighter, even at it's brightest. Be blessed and have a wonderful New Year, and may you see and hear more of God's will for your life. You and yours are blessed!
Shantell
