Addison, TX; Our New Home!

Filed under: Family, News — ben @ 8:16 am

I recently took a position at Razor 360 in Addison, Texas, and am getting ready to move into our apartment here while we wait for our house in Minnesota to sell(let me know if you’re interested!). I lived in Texas back in 1998 and 1999, and really liked it. So, when this opportunity popped up, I had to jump at it!

Besides being a great company, the people at Razor have been just wonderful, helping during the move, which has been very smooth, albeit a stressful time!

I’m anxious to start work on Monday, and am really excited for mid-next week when Michelle and Emmett will arrive! It’s been pretty quiet and lonely without them here!

Moving to Texas (again)!

Filed under: Family, News — ben @ 4:16 pm

Well, I’ve lived in MN for the past roughly ten years, and now, once again the draw of warm weather and the lone star state are pulling me, and this time, my family to the Dallas Texas area!

I’ve accepted a position with a company in Addison, and couldn’t be more excited!! Michelle is going to be a stay at home Mom now, which I really like.

Wish us luck in our new locale, and leave a comment if you’re from the area!

A friend just emailed me a link to this story… it’s rehashed all over the place, so I’m not sure where it originated, I assume here, but if you know otherwise, please comment.

So I haven’t worked on my truck for quite a while, and haven’t done many updates, so here’s how it looks today (literally, I just took these photos a few minutes ago).

Almelund Apple Festival

Filed under: News, Shows — ben @ 6:37 am

We went to the Almelund Apple Festival the other weekend. We’re about thirty minutes away, and it is a beautiful drive on a Sunday afternoon!

My folks were up for my dad’s fortieth class reunion, so we piled in the car and checked it out.

It was a fun time lots of stuff to see, and Perry Lindberg and several others were giving rides in their Model T’s.

The coolest car I saw though was this Mercury… It just had “that” feel to it.

Mobile post

I picked up the new iPhone 3GS earlier this week, so I thought I’d try out posting from it… I’m very pleased with how easy it is, and how quickly I can write a post!

Hopefully it will motivate me to post more often!
