FAMILY

This section will eventually have more pictures of our family as it grows
and as events happen. We also will be working on our family history
and hope to find and share information on the web.
Here is our first picture:

This is my wife and I when we went deep sea fishing on 6 Oct 98. The only keeper we caught was a Trigger Fish.

RELIGION

We are members of
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Our beliefs are as follows:

Articles of Faith

1 WE believe in God, the Eternal Father, and in His Son, Jesus Christ, and in the Holy Ghost.
2 We believe that men will be punished for their own sins, and not for Adam's transgression.
3 We believe that through the atonement of Christ, all mankind may be saved, by obedience to the laws and ordinances of the Gospel.
4 We believe that the first principles and ordinances of the Gospel are: first, Faith in the Lord Jesus Christ; second, Repentance; third, Baptism by immersion for the remission of sins; fourth, Laying on of hands for the gift of the Holy Ghost.
5 We believe that a man must be called of God, by prophecy, and by the laying on of hands by those who are in authority, to preach the Gospel and administer in the ordinances thereof.
6 We believe in the same organization that existed in the Primitive Church, namely, apostles, prophets, pastors, teachers, evangelists, and so forth.
7 We believe in the gift of tongues, prophecy, revelation, visions, healing, interpretation of tongues, and so forth.
8 We believe the Bible to be the word of God as far as it is translated correctly; we also believe the Book of Mormon to be the word of God.
9 We believe all that God has revealed, all that He does now reveal, and we believe that He will yet reveal many great and important things pertaining to the Kingdom of God.
10 We believe in the literal gathering of Israel and in the restoration of the Ten Tribes; that Zion (the New Jerusalem) will be built upon the American continent; that Christ will reign personally upon the earth; and, that the earth will be renewed and receive its paradisiacal glory.
11 We claim the privilege of worshiping Almighty God according to the dictates of our own conscience, and allow all men the same privilege, let them worship how, where, or what they may.
12 We believe in being subject to kings, presidents, rulers, and magistrates, in obeying, honoring, and sustaining the law.
13 We believe in being honest, true, chaste, benevolent, virtuous, and in doing good to all men; indeed, we may say that we follow the admonition of Paul--We believe all things, we hope all things, we have endured many things, and hope to be able to endure all things. If there is anything virtuous, lovely, or of good report or praiseworthy, we seek after these things.
Joseph Smith.

RUNNING

Running is one of my favorite pastimes. I started running when I was in High School and have been running off and on ever since. I ran my first marathon in 1998 in the Air Force Marathon at Wright Patterson AFB Ohio on 19 Sept 1998. It was the most exhausting thing I have ever done in my life. I felt really good for the first half and finished the half at 1 hr 36 min, but I could not finish the whole thing at that pace. I even probably walked the equivalent of four miles in the second half, but I did finish; my final time was 3 hrs 48 min. In May, 1999 I ran the BolderBoulder in Colorado and finished at 43:46. The altitude affected my run time somewhat, I was hoping to run under 42 minutes. I will be running it again in May 2000. Normally I run local 5Ks or longer here in Florida and average around 6:20 per mile for 5Ks. My goal for this year (2000) is to break a 6-minute mile average for a 5K run.
