The warmth of the sunshine does something for our souls. It seems to lift the spirit. Signs of spring are slowly showing up. The Little Missouri River’s running out of its banks. Baby calves scatter the hillsides. Green grass begs to grow. Just days before the Holy Week, our eighth grandchild is born. The overwhelming […]

Peaceful Living
Most of the world’s discussion about peace today centers around the absence of wars between nations. We are past the anniversary of the Ukraine war; this world does not seem peaceful.

Hope was Born
The days before the eve of our Christ child’s birthday, the wind blizzards across much of the United States, canceling 1000’s flights and displacing millions of hopeful people anticipating Christmas.

The Road Less Traveled
Driving is unavoidable in our rural area. Therefore, I choose the route to town depending on the day. I travel a particular road if it’s raining. I choose another if I need cell service.

A marketing team put this together. I am excited to post a blog very soon.
