Sorry to say goodbye

[caption id="attachment_30" align="aligncenter" width="206" caption="John McCain speaking at National Convention"][/caption] The last day of the Republican National Convention was everything I could want it to be.  Okay, well I wouldn't have minded getting to shake hands with John McCain and Sarah Palin, but realistically, that was not likely.   The whole of the convention was wonderful.  We had some great speakers and some great video presentations about our future President, Vice President and their families.  I learned [+]

Listening to the facts

[caption id="attachment_25" align="alignnone" width="225" caption="Colorado Senator Tom Wiens and Myself in our Colorado Delegation Stars and Stripes Cowboy shirt."][/caption] Last night was a night full of speeches by some of the best leadership in America.  Mitt Romney, Mike Huckabee and Rudy Guiliani all spoke in support of McCain and especially in support of Sarah Palin.  There is much to be said about each of their speeches but since I know everyone out there saw it last [+]

A day of leadership…

A Goodbye Worth Mentioning

As I got on the plane today to leave Denver for Minneapolis, I received the best sort of send-off gift; I was on the front page of the Daily Camera and I was featured in an article in the Broomfield Enterprise.  For some this might be a nothing special, but for me this is an event to write home about! Well... it would be if my family didn't already receive the newspapers!  But none the less, I [+]
