I was blessed with the best gift any parent could have, seeing all your grown children together, healthy and happy. It was their first visit to see their dad in NC.

Gail’s brother, Todd, was here to visit for a few days. We kept him pretty busy, including this day of hiking on Pilot Mountain. Share on Facebook I’m sure it goes back further, but my earliest memories of my mom screaming shouts of encouragement at the TV were when I was about 12. That would be around 1967. (Yeah, I’m old, shut up.) And it was ALL about the Green Bay Packers. Don’t ask me why. I don’t know that she has [...] It was our first trip back to Toledo since we have all moved down to NC, and I think we made the most of it! Our first stop was to visit Ginny in Cincinnati. We bought her an area rug for her birthday for her apartment living room, so we brought it with us from Winston [...] This awesome picture comes from my nephew, Ben, who is an accomplished and creative photographer. He has a wonderful eye! And that is coupled with a wanderlust that has taken him to many unique and out of the way corners of the world. This shot was taken at his current place of employment, as a scuba [...] Megan and her husband Mike had a nice Father’s Day dinner for me just now, a day early because I’ll be on the road tomorrow.

The ups and downs of her adolescence were painted with the joys and pains of life. She discovered some of her gifts, which include her intellect, athleticism and musicality. She has [...] This is my contribution for today’s Sunday Scenery, a regular deal at my friend, Lee’s blog. I am visiting my daughter, Kelly, in AZ later this week. This is a picture of the Grand Canyon that I took during one of my previous trips.

Well, an exciting round 2, and I’m shocked I’m still on the board. #7 out of 20. I am still in a suspended state of disbelief that Wake Forest lost in round 1. I can’t accept the humiliating way that turned out. When I get back to Winston-Salem, I might just have to stop at Wake [...] |
