Wonderful Visits

We all had such a great time visiting with him. A couple of the guards actually had hearts and let us stay a little longer. They were aware that we were visiting from out of the country and were great sports about it.

His little sister keeps bugging him about when they will have their big "date". He has promised her a date to California for ice=cream and a beach swim. So he has narrowed it down for her. He told her 900 days. In other words we will not hear the end of this date for 900 days, or until he gets out whichever comes first.

We are still working on his poetry book and it is moving slow. When you have to rely on snail mail to keep everything moving it is a slow process. He is doing lots of writing these days and getting very good at it. Better all the time.

Starting Sunday he will actually have visits again. We will not be hogging them.

How to Visit

I have received a couple of emails asking me how to visit Micah. I have decided to tell you! The best way to do it is call the jail, at the number under the address on the right. Ask them if Micah has any visits left this week.

Visits begin every Sunday morning and he has two thirty minute visits a week. Not much ha? If he has any visits left they will tell you and you can go down to the jail. The Coconino County Jail is right behind New Frontier Natural foods on Sawmill Rd.

When you got you must bring an ID. They also require that you be at least 18 unless you are a family member.

If you would like to visit and are having trouble getting in email me and I will tell Micah so that he can save a visit for you. He just refuses all visitors until you come to visit at your designated time.

Easy peasy ha? Have a good visit!

Forgiven and Forgotten

Micah is doing well. A big welcome to the new followers, he needs all the support he can get at this time. He has been very down. The visits are very important. I know how hard it is to go visit him. For me it is just such a drag to see him in that stupid place and not break down that glass and rescue my boy. It is very emotional to see him there.

I do realize visiting people in jail is not everyone's favorite past time. Even Micah has mentioned that had he known what he knows now he would have found someone to visit every chance he got. The visits mean that much to him.

We are spending about five grand to go visit him this summer. We don't mind though because I just love the heck out of that big ole' teddy bear and we are just living a different kind of normal. One where family vacations are planned around Micah's two year celebration etc.

On a sadder note, we are praying for Larry Hendricks, yeah the one I have bashed. He has been missing in Flagstaff since Monday and our prayers are with him as well as his family. Just doing his job was what Micah's lawyer told me when she told me he is really a nice guy. I will take her word for it!
