The world of Cope Occurrences
After 3 months at Cabelas, I decided to tender my resignation. It has been an interesting experience for sure. I really like dealing with the customers and most of my co-workers are awesome. However, it has been a frustrating job because of a myriad of little annoyances that they and I are unable to resolve. […]
Stacia and I decided to contact one of the HobbyTown owners to see how the franchise was going before we proceeded down that path. Turns out it isn’t good. We had forgotten a lot of the stuff that annoyed us with the franchise when we sold and it has only gotten worse, A-Main doesn’t care […]
Stacia and I have been kicking the idea of opening another store in Idaho Falls. It was a good area while we were there and houses with some land are much cheaper. I don’t know if we will actually jump on the idea or not. It has been super frustrating for me a Cabelas. As […]
I said in my last post that it seemed like I was waiting for the second shoe to drop. Well it did, Talon has been going through what I would call a faith and tesimony crisis. He has been watching anti-LDS videos and has not only doubts but says is considering leaving the church. He […]
For some reason, the last few weeks have felt kind of strange. The weather is FINALLY warming up, but things just feel a bit off. I feel like I’m waiting for a second shoe to drop, don’t ask me why. It is probably just the fact that our usual schedule has been interrupted with the […]
A while back, the neighbors who were renting the house next door, the “parents” decided to leave to go camping and leave all the kids at home. The kids decided to throw a party. We had the joy of getting woken up at about 1AM with the cul-de-sac full of police cars. Apparently somebody got […]
It was a fun night going to see Alton Brown in “Concert” 🙂 I’ve been fan for some time starting with the show Good Eats. It was a lot of fun getting to spend time with the family and I purchased a autographed copy of his book. I’ve got most of the event recorded because […]
So I have been into the Johnny Cash rendition of the song ‘Hurt’ originally done by the Band Nine Inch Nails. It is an interesting contrast to me. The Nine Inch Nails version is basically about a younger man whose life is spiraling out of control. The Johnny cash version is about someone nearing the […]
Feels like a Saturday since we had game night on a Wednesday. 🙂 I’m looking forward to seeing Alton Brown this evening. I’m not sure what to expect, since he is most famous for his show Good Eats. Culinary evening entertainment without a meal. Should be interesting. I’ll do an update with how we liked […]
It is great to have Stacia back from Garden Valley after being away for two days helping Roscoe and Jeanine get ready for a garage sell this summer. I guess they came back with a load of stuff for Desert Industries and then some pictures that Jeanine painted for Pam, John and their kids. Markee […]
