Old Photos, Good Times

Came across this today. Ben sang "Wayfaring Stranger" at the Chet Atkins Appreciation Society convention in Nashville. I believe this was in 2008.  That other guys is world's greatest fingerstyle guitarist, Tommy Emmanuel.

Good Eats! (Please don't sue me, Alton Brown. I love your show.)

Did I mention that my wife can take the simplest, most inexpensive ingredients and *voila* turn them into a gourmet feast?

I don't cook. But sometimes my smoker does.

My Little Boy is a Man

Those of you who know Ben know that he's been a man since he was about 15. But now he's graduating college. And he loves God and people. And he loves wisdom. And he is committed to excellence. And I am sitting here thanking God for His grace, and wondering how all this happened and where the years went. I was blown away when God granted me my heart's desire 22 years ago. But he took that initial blessing and turned it into a channel - an aqueduct - of goodness in my life. I am overwhelmed. Blessed be the name of the Lord.

Children are a heritage from the Lord

I am so grateful to God for my sons and the woman who gave them to me. Can't wait for us to all be together this summer.

My Wife Likes to Cook

This is beef braised with tomatoes and onions, roasted potatoes and carrots, and yeast rolls.
