Looking forward to another school year

Well, its August and it's already time to begin thinking about next school year at the college. Even though our students don't really come on campus until September 1st, it is still time to at least begin to ready myself. It's been a great summer thus far. I have been able to do a lot of fun things with Aly and Brooks and family. I have been able to get away from things as well and take time to stop and listen to God...at least a little. I still battle with wanting things done my way, but I'm working through those issues.
The College is timidly anxious about next year as early numbers indicate a large group of new students attending this September. We have a number of projects that are ongoing across campus that are exciting. I can't talk about them here until they are officially completed. Our Men's Basketball team is looking good to this point...at least on paper anyway. We have some really good players coming to attend in the fall. Early indications show that we could be pretty good, as long as this group of guys are willing to put aside any selfishness and be more willing to be good teammates. It should be a fun if not interesting year once we start practices and games.
Anyway, the Lord has been good to me and my family this summer and we are looking forward to the opportunities that He has for us. Hopefully my eyes and heart will be able to see those things and I will feel His guidance wherever He may be leading.

...so long for now. Sure would like to get an invite to a certain bed and breakfast in Texas sometime...anyone know of a nice place?????
