Indy Jam 2014

Every year for the last 18 years I have gone on a road trip to meet up with some internet friends from all over the country. Some times we are in Ohio, sometimes we meet in Indy. We get together and hang out, share stories, jam, and just have a good time. This year’s trip …

Vacation May 2013

We had a great Vacation in Florida.  We went to St. Pete Beach, FL, which is on the Gulf of Mexico.  Near Tampa / St. Petersburg, FL.               On the way down we took the long route and stopped in Mobile, AL.   On our way out we stopped by the …

Strangers

My wife was watching a reality show last night that had some match makers on it.  I had finished my recording so I sat down beside her to finish watching the episode with her.  While I was watching I heard one of the match makers say something very profound.  I might get his exact words wrong, …

He is Risen!

I hope everyone had a wonderful Easter.  Our church had a great turnout for the Easter program.  I had a wonderful lunch with family afterwards and got to sit on the couch and watch NCAA March Madness all afternoon.  I got up very early to go to sunrise service so I was too tired to …

It’s only Friday, but Sunday’s coming.

Good Friday is here.  As Christians the Easter season is what it’s all about.  Even more important than Christmas.  Yes at Christmas we celebrate His birth on Christmas, but it was His death and resurrection that made all the difference.  Good Friday represents the day our Lord and Savior died on that cross for our sins.  He did …

Respect

The internet gives many people extra courage to say things they might not normally say face to face.  Whether it’s anonymous or not.  Sometimes good, sometimes bad.  Bantering back and forth about various topics we may disagree on is common place.  Sometimes it evolves into hurling occasional insults back and forth. However for the most …

Happy Thanksgiving God

I know I am not alone when I say, I need to stop and be thankful to God more often.  Too many times life rushes by with all it’s distractions and before we know it we forget to thank God for another day of life.  The same hustle and bustle that keeps me from having …

Our New Hobby / Mountain Biking

In an effort to be more active we went out and got ourselves some nice Trek Mountain Bikes. I say nice, because they are plenty nice for us.  Huge step up from a dept store bike, but nothing compared to what a serious mountain biker would ride.  Sondra has been riding a road bike for …

The ICU is NOT fun!

About a month ago, I spent a few days in the ICU.  Talk about a wakeup call.  That will make you religious real fast if you are not already.  The weird thing is I felt fine the whole time I was there.  It was the doctors telling me that I was too sick to leave.  …

Ohio Jam at the Kerns’ House

For those of you who don’t know, for the last several years I have been driving to Ohio about once a year to attend a guitar jam where friends from all over gather to swap stories and play.  This year it was hosted in a new location.  It was Sean and Lisa Kerns’ first time hosting the …
