“Having had a busy schedule the week Jim sent me an early draft of this book, I sat down late one evening to get a start on reading it. Before I realized, it was well into the night, I was the only one still awake, and I had finished the draft. I caught myself sitting alone in the lamp light, just laughing. Full disclosure, I grew up with Jim. We are not only first cousins, but close friends. He is one of the easiest kind of friends I have as well as infinitely unique, creative, and funny. I knew these stories would be entertaining at the very least. I highly respect how Jim and Diane have raised their family. I love their kids and will say that each of them has grown into the kinds of people that would make any parent proud. These are a few of the stories that occurred along the journey. Enjoy!”
