I remember when I was a young boy, about 7 or 8, a music teacher traveled door to door in our neighborhood selling music lessons… for the accordion. Oh, I so wanted to learn an instrument. Alas, we had no money for music lessons. In a way, I think my mom thought she was saving [...]

I’m really trying to do this blog thing better than I’ve done in the past… I realize I have far to go. It’s not that my spirit is not willing… my flesh, well, it’s not weak… just easily distracted. In one short week I will be headed off to Guatemala with World Vision. I’ve still [...]

I’m not a big romantic, but I feel blessed to have a life that’s full of adventure, mystery and romance. Romance is a part of life. I can’t imagine living without it.

I had the wonderful opportunity to travel with World Vision to an Area Development Project in Tijuana, Mexico the last week. It was stormy… the rain was intense and falling… sideways. It was incredible to see roads washing away moments after we crossed them. Upon arriving to the ADP, we met families. Families who have [...]

OK, I’ve got another contest. This one will run for two weeks and I’m hoping for some fun input from a bunch of you. One of the goals I have for 2010 is to work on my blog more than I did in 2009. (so far, so good) I want it to be a site [...]

Chalk this up to my first real product shot… I have to say, “I’m blessed.” I’m not sure I could go into all the details of this photo. Yes, I know it’s a bunch of Canon cameras, but it’s more. Last year my family and I were returning home form the Oregon coast after speaking [...]
