In August, Jonathon and I survived nine days as vendors for the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally. Jeff Nicklus, from Desperado Motorcycles, generously donated Jonathon's vendor space so he could sell his Kurmudgeon Kards and T-shirts in Lead at the Desperado Junction. I went into the week with a some trepidation, but it was good.
Jonathon greeted every person who came past his booth with a "HELLO THERE. HAVE YOU BEEN TO DISNEYLAND?!" The one interaction that had Tim and I holding our breathe was when three Sons of Silence bikers came by the booth. Here are these three burly guys, wearing their jackets with SONS OF SILENCE across the back and what does Jonathon say "HEY MISTERS..." they all three turned and looked like they could poosibly rip our heads off... Jonathon continues "HAVE YOU BEEN TO DISNEYLAND?!" They mumbled "no" and kept walking... Tim and I suspect they have been to Disneyland, they just didn't want to admit it in front of their buddies!
An example of how simple Jonathon sees and lives his life. He doesn't see all the crap that we typical people see. He sees a person... regardless.
He has an amazing soul.
