Weekend Potpourri

Wonderful Williamsburg:
Although Sundays are never a day off for a Pastor, this week allowed for a little more pleasure outside of "church" than normal. Our family took a trip to Colonial Williamsburg. You may read about our trip at WilgisFamily.com.

I would encourage many of my friends around the country to consider Williamsburg for vacation. Water Country USA, Bush Gardens, Jamestown and Colonial Williamsburg are all within a few miles of one another and offer terrific family fun (and some cool education experiences).

Stupid Mistake on my part:
I did one of the dumbest things I'd done in a long time last night (and into today). My wireless internet went down on my other laptop (and old donated Armada we use for the church). I thought nothing of it and let it go. Then a few hours later (last night) my internet quits working on my personal laptop. We have a network at the house so I spent several hours last night and at least 3 hours today running every test, fix, driver install, etc. to see if I could get to work. In a last ditch effort, I went and purchased a new G-link router. Still no change. I was frustrated.

After doing some other things around the house I came back and approached the problem again. This time I came across a website with some obvious help. "if your computer has a blue or red button, you may have to press it to enable wireless internet". WHAT???? That's it?

Yes. Somewhere (possibly on Sunday Morning when I took this machine with me) the blue "internet" button had been pushed and the light wasn't on. So I hit the button and "Boom!" the internet started right up!

Sometimes I wonder about myself. I'm not sure if anyone out in blogland can relate... but tonight was a time when I wondered if my years of education and "wisdom" were worth anything. It just makes me so much more in awe of how God can love us so...

That's my boy:
As mentioned below, Kristy and I got to see our baby boy. This experience was wonderful. It's going to be so cool to see my baby boy in a short 7-8 weeks. My friend John is about to have his boy as well. His wife Amber is due on June 12th!

We had a new birth at Focal Point this month and we have a few ladies who are currently expecting. Exciting times.
