It all started early last Saturday morning. We had driven across the state of Virginia, visited with friends, and enjoyed a night in a decent hotel room on the previous Friday. We awoke early in the morning so that we could get a jump on the day and enjoy more time with family in Ohio….
Personal
Complaining
We just got to spend a few days with my sister at her house in Cincinnati. That is so rare. We usually see each other in large family gatherings, and then for only an afternoon or something. So this weekend was greatly anticipated, and in many ways, did not disappoint. We had a great time…
Weird
I got up at 7 something this morning again. Two weeks in a row. What happened to my day off? 🙂 It will be fun to sing with my sister this morning. Looking forward to meeting Gil Contreras as well. He’s a bit of a legend. My bro-in-law calls him the Billy Graham of Mexico….
We Made It
We just arrived at our stop for the night. Didn’t quite make it from Mechanicsville, VA to Bristol, VA to Cincinnati, OH. We are staying at a hotel in Lexington, KY. We’re tired. Precisely at midnight, we heard a very strange, loud noise coming from the back of our van. We could NOT figure it…
Comparing Apples to Apples
In many conversations I have with friends who would benefit from having a Mac but just don’t know it yet, one of the main counterpoints offered is that Macs are just much more expensive. This is just not true. Yes, the bottom line is greater, but that’s because you’re getting MORE. 🙂 So, for fun,…
Worship
We were part of a program this morning that was fairly unique. Jen and I were set up with microphones and folding card table chairs at the very back of a stage, hidden by a thick black curtain. We had no visual cues as to when to begin our musical portion of the program. Only…
Interaction
We just finished a 12-hour drive from our house to the home of our friends in Mechanicsville, VA. I’m tired, but wanted to share something I observed on the 500 plus mile trek across many states. We saw many people today. At our various stops. That was fun. Some were friendly, others kept their polite…
I’ve Got Peace Like A River…
Found this while cleaning out an old folder on my virtual desktop here. It’s part of some notes I had written to myself from a weekend retreat. “peace does not exist until you don’t care what other people think about you.”
