Progressing
Good morning from my office, I am back in the quiet confines of Bakeless, where I am able to just work because we are on break and there is no one to disturb my progress. The quietness reminds me of the very first morning I walked into the church where I had just be calledContinue reading “Progressing”
Break-ing and Work-ing
Hello from my study at the Acre, It was a nice and productive day. Quiet when no one was in the entire office this morning or most of the day. It was wonderful and a great way to get a lot done.

Heritage: More than a Word
Good Morning from the Fog and Flame, So this morning I got up at a reasonable time for a break (8:00 a.m.) and did a little work around the house and fixed my second breakfast of a changed diet ( a healthier one).

International Wonders
Hello on a Friday evening, I had the opportunity to see the punk musical American Idiot this evening on campus. It was quite astounding. The music and the vocals were outstanding, but the choreography was simply stunning to me. The energy and the set were infectious and the Mitrani Center was sold out I believe. ItContinue reading “International Wonders”
