Fun Fact Friday with Andrew Bacon

Hey Friends,
Did you get your March Madness bracket filled out?! I picked Iowa State as the champs, in honor of my late dad who attended college there. Today, I’ve got 4 fun facts to share with you and as usual – my weekly quote to ponder.  Have a great weekend!

Blessings,
Andrew

Fun Fact 1:
As many of you experienced last week, we received a record Spring snowfall.  We had at least 22″ where we live on the West side of Colorado Springs. Here’s a photo of my car after I already had dug it out on the first day of the storm.

Quote I’m pondering:

“In this short Life
That only lasts an hour
How much – how little – is
Within our power”
