Whaa Hooooo, I did it I closed a boat I’m gonna get paid, I’m gonna eat, I’m gonna buy a 12 pack of beer and celebrate with my friends, I’m gonna …

After catching up on my bills I will only have a hundred bucks but it might as well be One Million Dollars.
Its amazing how little one truly needs to happily make thier way through life when we don’t carry debt. I’m not broke, I’m even.
In the book of Kings we read about a woman who came weeping to Elisha, the prophet. Her husband had died, and she owed a debt that she could not pay. The creditor was on his way to take her two sons and sell them as slaves.
By a miracle Elisha enabled her to acquire a goodly supply of oil. Then he said to her: “Go, sell the oil, and pay thy debt, and live thou and thy children of the rest.” (See 2 Kgs. 4:1–7.)
“Pay thy debt, and live.” How fruitful these words have ever been! What wise counsel they are for us today!
Congrats! I hope there is another closing in your future as well. Nice work.
Wish you guys were here to partake in the celebration. Sun check for Mexico
Heck yeah! In the meantime, we’ll toast a beer tonight to your success! You don’t happen to know three amazingly cool folks in Bellingham by the names of Craig Cooper, Melissa Roberts and their adorable daughter Hazel, do you? Craig has a Marine Services Business in Squalicum Harbor (I think).
I know Craig very well, he is a stellar human being and all around nice guy. Wow what a small world.
That’s hilarious! Had you two already talked about this connection? Melissa, his wife, is my best friend and they are headed this way in a few months for our wedding. Love those guys!
That’s awesome. Craig saved me last year, I was in a pinch to launch and way behind schedule. It was mid June in the middle of his busiest month of the year, he dropped everything and helped me replace a thru-hull so I could launch on time. I had no idea you guys were friends but if your friends with Cooper you just went to the top of my great people list, actually you guys were already there
That sounds like Craig – great guy! We’ll have to look you up our next time in Bellingham – we try to get out there at least once a year to visit. It may be awhile now though (trying to get those guys to come south to visit instead this next time around!).
Wisdom derived from the old testament?! How very interesting…
Who you calling interesting?
