About the pictures you see

So, I've got a couple of pictures scattered on the blog here. Since I'm extremely mindless and can't think of anything to blog about, I'll go into my pictures. There is one with me in a baptismal pool. Yes. That was May 7, 2006. Brian Hill did the honors. It's a day I will not forget. There is another pic with me and longer hair, gotee and stuff. That would be me and my Line 6 amp and my BC Rich Warlock guitar. I was in a band called Empire in Ruins (they since have changed their name to Strikezone). I left shortly before I was baptized. I probably played almost a dozen shows with them. It was fun but I could tell I didn't have the heart to keep going with it and it was affecting me in many other ways. What's done is done and I can't change that but I love the guys and wish them nothing but success. There is a small picture of just a head shot. Taken by Alan Matthews. He was going around to all the children's ministry people at church. Interestingly enough, he used an action shot of me for a big board showing off everyone. Lastly, little miss Yolomin. One of the many children that melted my heart in Venezuela. Yolomin especially. Not sure why. She and I just connected. I pray for that girl. And the Venezuelans. They are always on my mind and pray one day I can go back. Gee, this turned out longer than I thought! And hey, all while listening to the great Larry Carlton. His album On Solid Ground is so relaxing to listen to and it's such a triumphant CD. It was almost killed by a gunshot. I'm happy that he was able to recover that tragic event in his life and how God is using him now. Awesome.
