Mojo Music




We were on our way up to Oregon/Washington and had a stop in Colorado. Melinda took some pictures at one of my old jobs there. This was when I first moved up tand was living in Eagle-Vail. That's just in between Avon and Vail. This wasn't my first job. I worked as a ski-lift operator for Beaver Creek and then waited tables at Outback Steakhouse. I also got placed in employee housing while working at Beaver Creek. I had two Australian roommates and when they moved out one briefly from Scotland. The music store was in Avon, at the bottom of the mountain to Beaver Creek Ski Resort. It was a pretty cool job. I was working here the day of 9/11 and remember watching the news all day. We didn't have much business on that particular day. One of the cool things about this job was that we got to go to a lot of the concerts in town for free. We usually sold tickets to most events. It was weird going by there to visit. This was also a time when I wasn't really living the life a Christian would. I was partying a lot, yet searching for what life was about. God found me and eventually I quit this job to move over to Summit County closer to the church I started attending and the new positive friends God placed in my life. It's weird how He works...
