Olympics #29
I was fortunate enough to live in southern California in 1984 during the Olympic games. It was difficult to get tickets for some of the big events like gymnastics but it was not hard to participate. Different family members and I took in soccer, field hockey, diving and some track and field events. The Olympics…
Opening more than Wardrobe Doors
This is the first of several entries on my thoughts about the Lakelight Institute CS Lewis study tour I joined on July 5-12, 2024. Jerry Root had shared in one of the classes last January that Lewis opens more than wardrobe doors. I thought about that as we walked through the doors that Lewis also…
Slow Motion
Random thought of the day: Maybe because I am a sports fan, maybe because I feel like we are moving in such a fast pace, but every once in awhile I wish we could rewind and watch some things over in slow motion. Sometimes I want to rewind to rewatch some spectacular catch or home…

Billy Graham
Well Dr Graham went home to heaven yesterday and everyone seems to be sharing their memories and stories of this amazing evangelist, known as America’s Pastor. I too have stories! My first remembrance is when I was probably 4 years old. We sat really high up in the Coliseum in LA and I remember that…
