Happy New Year’s!
What will 2023 bring?
We had been out grocery shopping and my wife suggested we stop for ice cream. It's winter and it's cold, but sometimes you need a reward. While I was drinking my shake, I noticed two things.

Taking a pie in the face!
Board games have changed since I was a kid. We played Monopoly or Stratego. I usually had to beg one of my brothers to play with me. The worst that could happen if I lost: I would go bankrupt and owe my brothers a bunch of fake money or I’d lose my Colonel or General... Continue Reading →

Gifts of Christmas: Love
When we talk of Christmas, we think often of Christmas Carols sung on the radio; lights lit up outside in magical displays; stockings hanging in the living room; expensive presents under the tree.
