This is what our priest defines as “people enduring wooden seats”. And we did, indeed, endure the equivalent to them several weeks ago.
I already mentioned that we find unusual things to do on Saturdays. A couple of weeks ago, in anticipation of our trip to north Georgia and a Bluegrass Festival, we drove over to [...]

We got back from our latest camping adventure earlier in the week. Overall, the trip to North Carolina was fun; we were able to set up our camp during a beautiful day, had rain and cold nights, were able to strike camp and move an hour further up the mountains to Hugh’s neck of [...]

I mentioned early this holiday how much I enjoyed a country music CD entitled “Mary, Did You Know?” — a compilation of Christmas songs performed by a variety of country artists. One song I really like is The Christ (A Song for Joseph) by Billy Dean. He’s also one of the [...]
