Out in Breckinridge with my friend and fellow AA member Dean. He Had me sign up to this board while we're waiting on the sun to come up to hit the slopes. It has been a beautiful week so far and all I can think of is moments like this dont happen with out sobriety pumping through my veins and a higher power in my soul. Just listened to some stones. I think Keith was kind of getting the program years before he was actually getting the program. As many of our stories go "I was drowned, I was washed up and left for dead. I looked down to my feet and I saw they bled. I frowned at the crumbs of a crust of bread. I was crowned with a spike right through my head. BUT IT'S ALL RIGHT NOW. IN FACT IT'S A GAS....JUMPIN JACK FLASH. Thank you Dean. Thank you all for my sobriety. Most of all thank you god.

That scene, on top of a moutain waiting for the Sun to come up, what a beautiful image it creates.
