Received an email today from my pastor and it contained a very moving YouTube video.  I thought I’d share this video with you.  Strongly encourage you to take the time to view the video.

What a day…. it definitely was a “scorcher”!  One time during the day, I glanced at my car’s outdoor temperature gage and it registered 96 degrees.  Looks like the local weather forecast for this area is for the temperature to be about the same for the remainder of the week.  For those of you who [...]

Hello friends…. hope your day went well.  Here in the Appalachians it was a bright, sunny day.  Had to part with an old friend today that had graced the boundary of my home for several years.  It was a lovely shade tree.  However, due to disease or perhaps a lightening strike, its life had ended.  [...]

Have you ever had one of those days…when the natural course of events seems to be following a winding curvy road…. yes, things just go wrong.  Well, Monday was that day for me.  It was a busy day to say the least; however, the late afternoon proved to be somewhat challenging.  After finishing several tasks [...]
