Welcome to the new GENERIC site...for now! I haven't been able to blog because this computer didn't have the
interface that I use. The REAL site is a lot better looking I promise.

Well when my wife and two boys get into town this coming weekend we will go right into a house! I am SO
excited since we've lived in both apartments and condos all of our marriage. She is totally freaked out that
she has never seen the place and was quizzing the realtor about it more than me! Let me just say that we
had help from somebody that has been an angel. My wife flew out here in the middle of February and didn't
find anything she liked (go figure took me two days) and Becky Swanson of Remax Advantage Realty, INC.
really stepped up and helped us. She is so nice and I would recommend here to ANYONE looking for a
place. Oh, and it's a buyers market! Ha. Without her we may have been living out of a hotel room and that
was my number one thing in regards to my family - no hotel living! She helped us accomplish just that! Her
office is 719-548-8600. This is not some paid endorsement I just am so appreciative that she was able to
help us find not just a house but a home.

The first show was so much fun and everyone is so welcoming. Heard from a lot of Chicago transplants
which was nice and I look forward to even more interaction as time goes by. Call ANYTIME and I mean it!
Just don't ask for money....unless we are giving it away!

Hung out with Woody and Coyote to give some more of those Matchbox 20 tickets away today which was
cool. Oh, and I should probably give Dan Hardee a plug too...even though he didn't listen to me on my first
day. Thanks DAN.

After that it was family mode trying to help Kelly prepare for the insanity of having all of our stuff put into a
truck tomorrow evening. We have 16 friends and family coming over to help and my two brother in laws are
driving the stuff out here to Colorado which will save lots of time and, yes, money. I'll have to do a version
of Cribs like I did in the past and get everyone else at Peak to do it too! Don't you want to see where Tammy
Oakland relaxes? Shoot I haven't seen it yet!

Oh...and this pic...do you EVER get sick of seeing this? Beautiful!







Talk to you soon,
