Up my count of PuritanBoard encounters in the flesh from 2 to 3. I just had a very nice dinner with PuritanCovenanter and his youngest son.

If any of you get a chance to meet Randy, don't pass it up! You will have fun and be edified. Just seeing his beard in person was an encouraging and rather awe-inspiring experience.
 
Too bad I wasn't able to visit you when I was in Chicago :(. Oh well.. next time...or.. when it starts getting disgustingly cold, come to sunny Tucson AZ! It'll be awwwesoooome :sing:

Yes, but did he bring his Norseman helmet? Until you've seen Randy in that, I suspect the experience can only be partially satisfying ;)
 
Nikki I was sorry we didn't meet you when you were in Chicago too. We were in AZ last year. I don't suppose you know how to time warp?
 
Josh, that may be sooner than you think. Hang on to your hat and don't go to California before June 6th.
 
Todd, he didn't bring his Norseman helmet, but I think people at Ponderosa might have given us funny looks if he had. His beard was like Durin's, though, and that was enough for me.

Oh it's funny you ask...

*jumps to the left... then steps to the right... puts hands on hips... then brings knees in tight..* uh.. we'll stop there hahahaha! :lol:

Oh if you manage to get to Arizona again, you're welcome to stay at my house I've arranged to have a room for my office/guests, both of my roommates are awesome wanna be puritans! We're naming our house Casa de la Reformada, and we'll post the WCF and LBCF :bouncy:!

I think he bears a striking resemblance to his twin brother, except for the haircut and a few pounds.
 
Man,
If any of you guys are passing through Indianapolis, Indiana just make sure you get to meet the young man I got to meet. He comes from good stock.

He is a bit younger than I expected. I expected to meet this burly Missions Man who could look you in the eyes and melt you into believing the Gospel. But it was a 20 something kid with the intellect of a Professor. It was so cool. What a joy to meet him and his Mere Housewife. I didn't get to spend much time with her but I am looking forward to them both coming over soon.

BTW Ruben, We forgot to pray together brother. I am sorry we didn't do that. We both have a lot of needs we could have gone to the father together on. I will be praying for you guys.

Thanks for meeting with me Ruben. It was a blessing for me.
 
Hagrid may be Randy's twin, but Randy definitely has better taste in clothes!

Randy, I realized that as well. But please know that we will be praying for your upcoming surgery, and if we can bring you a 3-oz. meat smoothie we'd be happy to do that. It was a real blessing to have you come over and be able to hang out.
 
Randy it was truly a joy to meet you. As is the picture comparing you to Hagrid.

Nikki, your whole method of time travel is making me sorrier we didn't meet you last year :-).
 
Another blessing is that Randy very generously gave me two books: a volume which contains W.G.T. Shedd's Theological Essays and Heteredoxy and Orthodoxy and Alan Conner's, Covenant Children Today.

I think the last time I enjoyed meeting someone that much was the last time we met a PB member. I sense a trend....

I think Randy is a regular Tom Bombadil (apologies to Paul M.) and I very much look forward to fellowshipping with him one day, on this side of heaven or the other.

The sad thing about being on PB is, that I will probably never get to meet any of you guys in the flesh this side of eternity - unless you all visit Ireland.

I have an ancestor buried in the Huguenot cemetery in Dublin. I've been wanting to go back for a while. Lord willing! :handshake:

I did not even know such a place existed. :eek: Dublin is such a cool city, I will have to get back down there soon. :cool:
 
Nikki, we would be very happy to be able to meet you. Surely at some point you'll take a random drive through the midwest in a minibus in order to find yourself or something?

Dublin is truly a fascinating city. I spent a little time on the campus at Trinity College, where some of my ancestors matriculated. Not to mention the pubs. :cheers:

But when you go back, you may wish to see that cemetery. Here are some links about it:

I'm planning on meeting you, Heidi, and Randy (and kids) around the middle of August.

:lol: I'm sure I'll take a trip to visit my old Chicago friends one of these days, and when I do I'll have to stop by and say hello, maybe not on a minibus.. but perhaps a rental car. :) Oh.. y voy a praticar mi español con ustedes :bouncy:
 
Nos avisas cuando vienes!

Bring a notebook when you come, Rich. You'll want to take down some good ammunition against paedo-baptism.
