A Record of God’s Presence in the Furnace
An offering from my journal because I process best when I document
It’s a New Season at All Things Southern
Hey y'all! I'm happy to report the Beloved Farmer and I survived the 2nd Annual Pops and Keggie Kamp! That would be the one held for our grands, The Fabulous Five, and it is not for the feint of heart or body. The kids and I had a list of activities we wanted to get around to and we were checking 'em off like crazy. Kamp
How not to bring the house down
Hello folks, let's chat…Although I gather some interesting anecdotes on my travels around the country, rarely do I hear any that are more intriguing than those that come out of my visits to the Lone Star state.

Because I’ve yet to meet anyone

Some are published authors and others journal for their private enjoyment, but they've all
Falling Out of Touch
It was a beautiful Saturday morning in Houston, TX. I was watching my favorite soccer player compete while his little brother sat in my lap and played with an animated dog on my iPhone.
