Hello Mr. Blees, glad to know you were in COS. I met you at the convention this year during the final evening events. If you have time at some future visit, give me a ring and we'll meet for coffee. I hope you enjoyed our little weather adventure this morning. Enjoy the tropical weather out in the pacific.

Although November was the worst months I had since coming to Hawaii, December turned out to be the best, with over $10,000 in income. And so far, I've gotten 10 appointments in just the last 4 days, and January is fast filling up. What makes me very encouraged is that most of the new appointments I'm getting are "I got your name from..." Word of mouth is starting to pay off. Now for the bad news. My wife and I have been in Colorado Springs since Dec. 26th. The weather has been nice, for Colorado, with day time temperatures in the 50's. But this morning we woke up to 10" of snow, 11 degrees, and a wind chill of probably below zero. I haven't seen this much snow since I moved to Alabama 8 years ago. Our son and daughter in law went to Park City for a nice vacation, so this morning I've got to get out there and shovel snow. I realize for some of you this is normal, but for me, ...=2 0well, lets just say, we're flying back to Hawaii on Wednesday. I know, life sucks. :) Happy New Year everyone.
