When I lived in California I became a bike rider of sorts. There were miles of paved bike trails alongside the American River which is gorgeous. Every once in awhile I would participate, with friends from church, in organized bike rides. These rides varied in length- riders choice. The first few times I chose to [...]

2. Must [...]

I feel so blessed. In my post “Where I was on 9/11″ I wrote about issues with my health. It was awful. Only now, as I begin to truly gain good health, do I see how terrible I felt for many long years. I lost so much. Opportunities. Relationships. [...]

I won’t hide my true feelings. I believe this country is the greatest place to live in the world. For lots of reasons. Today I was reminded of just one.
On my way home from work I witnessed the tail end of a near accident. Apparently a young man was run off of the road. All [...]

At first I believed we were under attack by a UFO. Then I realized the large yellow orb pulsating high in the sky was merely the sun. The glorious sun. All weekend long. Thank you Jesus.
When I first moved to Tulsa our bright beautiful days were punctured once in awhile by rain. Of late it’s [...]

Amy and I feel so blessed to have a nice place to live. However, when we bought the house the previous owners must not have been fans, as I am, of the Home and Garden Network. They did absolutely nothing to “stage” the house, nor had any idea what “curb appeal” was and failed to [...]

We had a great time in Independence, Missouri. President Truman’s Presidential Library was worth the trip. If you’re ever near Kansas City you should make the effort to go. Especially if you’re like me and doubt you will ever be invited to the Oval Office. At the Truman Library the Oval Office is recreated as [...]

Amy and I are going to Missouri this weekend with her folks. We’re going to spend a day at Truman’s Presidential Library. Stuff like that is my version of fishing so it should be relaxing. And interesting.
Have a blessed weekend.

I thought I should say I haven’t sat through a church of Christ worship service that lasted 2 or 3 hours. Yet. At Memorial Drive our services average about ninety minutes. I think. Which is just about right. Speaking for myself. Only.
In yesterday’s post I was referring to past experiences [...]
