The First Two Days

This one will be quick:

I started work yesterday morning. I was pretty apprehensive as I had no idea what to expect - Salesmen can be pretty intense. Thankfully, that was not the case. Everyone seems very nice and has been very friendly and helpful so far. My boss (Mike) took me out to lunch yesterday with Jason (who I am basically shadowing), and I went to lunch with a couple other guys today. It has been really interesting to start relearning everything that I have tried to forget from my days as a "real" engineering student. I can honestly say that I have learned more from two small handbooks than I did from an entire 10 weeks and 600 pages of Thermodynamics. It all finally makes sense.

So, I've been really busy trying to get established - finding a church, getting a gym membership, buying food (and clothes thanks to my forgetfulness), but yesterday I came home just before sunset and here is what I watched as my dinner-show.That's the evening view from my kitchen window. It just made me stop and think for a minute about the beauty that God surrounds us with every day - and that we are all-too-often too busy to notice.
