Okay, Then How About Some Warm Rain?
I can’t plant my corn. I could have the week I was in California and it was what, ninety degrees here. But I refuse to go back and trade in that wonderful trip and time deepening a good friendship with Sheila, Carol and my own girls just for some corn. But come on! It is … Continue reading
More Richard Foster
Ah another bit of Richard Foster, this time though the book is Life With God. So far (I’m to chapter 3) it is an excellent expansion of Celebration of Discipline. In the first chapter he begins to explain the interweaving of Spiritual Disciplines and Scriptures. On one hand the four distinct ways and the manner … Continue reading
I Give Up
Okay, that’s it, I can not get this whole picture and writing at the same time. I’m going to go cry now, while I get ready for Friday night Gathering. Dirt’s nose is in the Bible so I think I’m going to get in trouble for having taken pre-gathering time to be silly. See you … Continue reading
Just For You, Dear Reader
Evelyn and Kathy came to visit the farm. Evelyn came to get a ewe sheared and Kathy was bringing a wether for Evelyn to take home. It is a wet cold winter day… No, wait this was yesterday, June fifth! To wet to shear outside so a place in the Tractor garage is cleared out … Continue reading
Something From A Few Nights Ago
Remembering. Remembering at 4:00 in the morning when sadness sparks a memory. It was Christmas time, a Saturday night a year and a half ago, the folks that gather on Saturday night had begun a study on Genesis Wednesday nights. The study of Creation and Fall always seem to have a bizarre effect on people, … Continue reading

Their parents both live here on the farm. They are very classic Rat terriers. Dad weighs 20# and is 16″ at the shoulder, mom is … Continue reading

I Don’t Mind Being In The Crowd
I’m glad other people like the things I like. It isn’t even bad when lots and lots of people like the things that I like because then stores (Costco) carry what I like. I’m glad that there are enough people who liked the Muppets so that I could buy season one on DVD. If they … Continue reading
Unfinished Thoughts
The cliché of two little beings, one on each shoulder, one dressed in red with horns and a tail, the other dressed in white with wings, are we so sure that this is the correct interpretation of what is going on when we hear two voices battling for our decision ? When we entertain nonsense … Continue reading
Richard Foster’s Celebration of Discipline
I was excited to hear Steve say last week that he enjoyed the first chapter of Celebration of Discipline and did not think Richard Foster a crack pot, or something to that effect. Our Tuesday night Gathering is reading the book per Phil’s and my suggestion, and I always like it when someone enjoys a … Continue reading
