• Faith & Tension
This picture captures the essence of Faith and Tension. This was the cover on our Sunday Church Bulletin. I just liked the image with the caption “Faith and Tension.” One can easily imagine a boat that is anchored with strong rope to the edge of the dock by a dock cleat, but the water maintains […]
• On-Line Coaching Update
Yahoo! We now have FOUR “On-Line” protege’s in the Kidology Coaching Program. This is exciting for me, because I have invested so much effort in the last four years in writing and developing this mentoring model. I have been mentoring over twelve students “face to face,” from the Los Angeles area, but now we are […]
• Latte, the Therapy Dog
Well, her name is Latte. She is a Maltepoo, a cross between a Maltese and a Poodle. This toy breed is a great lap dog and does not weigh much. Of course, Latte is still a puppy, but at eight weeks, she is a mere two pounds (dripping wet). Latte joined our home this last […]
• A “Sign” from God?
I tend to read signs while I am driving. While I was returning from store on my last trip to Palm Springs, I caught a glimpse of this sign as I was passing a Bus Stop. Did it say what I thought it said? I was so intrigued by that thought, that I turned around […]
• My Favorite “View Spot”
I started the New Year out right with my monthly Writing Retreat to Palm Springs. I was reminded again just why I like coming here. It is not the weather, which was just gorgeous, no clouds, no heat, no wind, no rain, no snow and it was wonderful. It was also really quiet. My favorite […]
• Mexico Combo Photos
Here is a collection of photos taken on our last Kid Mission to Mexico. The above combo set of photos were all taken of our work in the La Mesa Jail the weekend prior to Christmas. (You can click on the photo for an enlargement.) A narrative account of this trip is located on this […]
• What is an Atlapedia?
An Atlapedia is a blended description of an Bible Atlas and an Encyclopedia for children produced by the creators of Veggie Tales. This was one of my Christmas presents this year. My children are now buying me resources, I think, so that I will be equipped to be the best grandfather I can be, for […]
• Riddle #7, What Am I?
Riddle me this, What am I? Life has started all over for me– The young years of happiness Have come again in a sweeter form Than a mother could ever guess; The love and devotion I gave my child I thought I could give no other, But life held a lovely surprise for me– When […]
• Santa’s Reindeer Spotted
This is a Funny Fun Foto of our two grandsons Benjamin and Tennyson each sporting thier Reindeer antlers this Christmas. As it turned out neither of them were Rudolph, but more likey, they were Prancer and Dancer. Sharon and I were really excited to be able to share some time with them in Baltimore just […]
• Successful Baja-Kid Mission
It was the weekend before Christmas. The two white buses were loaded with seventy members of our team, plus the buses were loaded with gifts, food, and medicine. I remember thinking…why would we all leave our families so close to Christmas to go on a mission trip like this? Let me share some of the […]
