We are losing our minds a little bit. So in order to give myself an “aaahhhhhhh” moment, and regain perspective, I thought I’d post the gorgeous sunsets we had the privilege of witnessing up in the mountains. Scott took the time every evening to catch the sunset, with the enthusiasm of a boy [...]
I have been listening to this song for the past few days, everytime I need a little extra help. It’s called “Our Friends Appear Like the Dawn”, by Bodies of Water. It came out years ago, and we even saw them in concert, but the song only just sunk in now.

Bren just left. He’s on his way to pick up Garland, his driving buddy, and then the two of them will climb into the cab of the 24′ truck and begin the arduous drive to Sacramento, where they are picking up another guy and his stuff. Then, hopefully it’s at least part of [...]

Don’t you hate it when a friend of yours is enormously talented at something, but it takes you years to find out?

There are some joys that the urban generation may, sadly, never discover.
Whilst in North Carolina, we had the privilege of indulging in one of them — and I got sad thinking about how this is probably old hat to people who either live in the country (or not in smoggy LA) or who grew up [...]
In case you hadn’t heard (and I’m not sure how you haven’t!), Ric Warren is “interviewing” both of the main presidential candidates tomorrow, ’round these parts at his Saddleback Church. (Warren is the author of the highly-successful “The Purpose Driven Life”.)
I read this article about Warren and what he’s been up to since the [...]
The headline speaks for itself I think.
Now that our internet is back (wheeeee!), I thought I’d post some pics from our unbelievably magnificent trip to North Carolina. Oh man oh man, I wish everyone could have experienced the peace up there. Patte and Scott have a gorgeous place at the top [...]
I am grimacing right now.
Our internet access bit it last Friday. AT&T said it was a server-wide issue, which would be fixed in an hour. It has now been more than a week and it’s still not working, and everytime we call, they say it’s for a different reason. They are sending [...]
Hey guys — Bren and I are off to beautiful North Carolina for a week, to visit his mum and Scott. We are both beside ourselves with excitement! We expect lots of hiking and lake-swimming and lazing around. Thank Goodness we can go.
Anyway, I’ll post once I get back on [...]
