3rd Rock from the sun
I wanted to share with you all today that I met a couple of the posters here on Sowal for the first time, I will leave them nameless for now up to them if they want to own up to meeting my wife and I. But just want to say thanks for the wonderful warm conversation and the "Fill in the gap" to the new folks in the area they shared. We have only been here since September as Sowal residents, and have met very few locals but the ones we have met have already made special places in our hearts. Anyhow back to the drama.... My work keeps me out of town allot and since my wifes heart attack last June she has had very little opportunity to get out and meet with folks. But for those who have taken a few moments to say "HI" to the new folks and find out that we are not rabid I feel have been as blessed as we are by meeting them. As we sat and watched one of the most beautiful sunsets I have ever seen tonight I reflected on how blessed we truly are. 2 new friends my wife and I just sat in a local restaurant and were quiet for what seemed like hours until the sun was gone. I looked at our new friends than at my wife and said sweetheart we are truly blessed to see the beauty of man and God all in one sitting. So to our two new found friends, Thank you for sharing what was a very special moment today with us, and Most of all..... Thank you Lord for allowing me one more day to be with my wife of 30 years and bear wittiness to your magic in the heavens!

In closing we look forward to meeting any and all of you and look forward to what God will share with us together..

Happy Holidays !

:welcome:to sowal Mr. and Mrs. BH!

it is truly a unique place to live - kind of outside the realm of real world life in some ways.

we saw sunrise and sunset yesterday... and we were not at the beach. no matter where you are, you have a big open sky to view. it was so beautiful.
