<\/a><\/p>\nLast weekend we took a group from our Church down to Josue and Martha’s house across the border. Obed, Brenda, and Jacinto were there and we had a good time familiarizing ourselves with their work. We had carne asada for lunch – always my favorite. We need to do that more often.<\/p>\n
Yun and I have been looking to buy another home for a little while now. Our hope is to buy a foreclosed home with cash, but it’s been incredibly difficult to find something we think would be a good investment. Ideally we’d like to have a few rental properties here in Tucson before retreating to our compound in the South of Mexico. Perhaps in time.<\/p>\n Nimbus Brewery has a new pub on Wilmot,\u00a0 just south of Grant. We went their for lunch today with Ben, Lis, and Ashley. They have two private rooms for poker where they supply a designated server, cards, and chips. We have plans to meet Thursday at 8.30pm. I anticipate some big winnings.<\/p>\n I’ve been reading some good books lately – Postman’s Amusing Ourselves to Death<\/em>, Meacham’s American Lion<\/em>, and Gaffin’s book on the continental reformer’s view of the Sabbath. All good stuff. Postman’s book is for our book group – we should be meeting at some point in the next week. Meachem’s book on Andrew Jackson (the guy on the $20 bill) was a great overview for me given I had no prior knowledge of the man. Gaffin was an excellent work and a preliminary text to my next book group selection of Dennison’s The Market Day of the Soul<\/em> which is the Puritan’s view of the Sabbath (and quite distinct to the continentals). Also, I read Ron Paul’s book End the Fed<\/em> recently as well which was exceptional. It prompted me to buy Griffin’s massive piece on the origin of the Federal Reserve, The Creature from Jekyll Island<\/em>. I am excited to get to that one. I purchased a few of Murray Rothbard’s books on economic policy in the 30s and Von Mises work on banking and inflation in the last week. So much to read, so little time.<\/p>\n Back to work tomorrow. Time for another glass of red.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Dana has pointed out it has been over a month since my last update. We’ve been busy, but it’s past due.
