Happy New Year!!

Well the start of another day. So what, that it happens to be the last day of 2008. It’s been an awful year anyway! Economic disaster on almost every front, major corporations closing their doors, families loosing their homes right and left, and worst of all NO CHRISTMAS BONUS!!!! Check that…. I guess worst of all would be the attempted genocide in Africa and the wars going on all over the world. I’ll be praying for all of my friends still fighting and putting themselves in harms way for other people’s freedom.

I’m looking forward to the fireworks here in Kingston tonight. All the roads in the downtown area water front are closed in preparation for the festivities. The Port Authority is scheduled to close today at 13:00 hrs (That’s 1:00pm for you non military minded). But as for my program on the port we are a 12 – 15 hr a day operation so… we will have to wait until our shifts are done. I have decided not to go downtown tonight to watch the fireworks, however; I have a great view of the ocean and water front from my Balcony. I’m going to watch from there, that way I can be online with my family at midnight. Isn’t technology grand? Of coarse they are an hour behind me because they are in the central time zone and we here in Jamaica are currently on east coast time.

I hope you all have a Blessed Year in 2009. I wish you all the best and pray that the store houses of heaven are open to you this year. My desire is for you all to have every thing you need, and a good portion of what you want. I pray that you all are in good health and that all of your households are filled with Love, Peace and Joy. Happy New Year!

God Bless You All,

Shawn

Okay, so I can't figure out how to respond to the comment you sent me.... But, Great Wolf Lodge is South of Olympia. Its new, it had only been open about 6 months when we went and they still had a slide to finish. It's AWESOME though. It's an indoor water park. Here's a link.http://www.greatwolf.com/grandmound/lodge

Cool, Thanks. We'll have to plan to go there when we are in the NW this summer.
