The other evening Lucy and I went to see her brother play in the softball league he apart of. His team is one of the younger teams and they won both games that they played against an older team.

The weather is starting to warm up. This allowed us to have a picnic with our friends.
Recently Lucy and I went to Ocean City, MD for our anniversary. It was a great place.
Light House Inn – where we stayed.
We enjoyed our time on the deck enjoying the sunsets.
On Thursday I attended Dave Ramsey’s Town Hall for Hope simulcast at a local church. It was a great to hear the hope and direction which he gave on the economy.

Sara Groves has a wrote a song entitled “When the Saints” which has become a favorite of mine. In this song she speaks of Saints who have lived life recklessly for God and others and her desire to do the same.
Michael Card has called Groves a modern day abolitionist because of her fight against current slavery. This song seems to come out of this passion.

Recently Lucy and I filled in as teachers for a Tuesday night Bible study class.
First we sang as an assembly.
A kindergarten boy has his hands up hoping the the leader will pick him for a song selection.
Here is Lucy with some of her class.
Here Lucy is teaching the class. Her lesson was on caring for others. The teachers we were substituting for were out because their niece was in critical condition in the hospital.
Lucy got all the girls to make a sympathy card for the missing teachers. She had her laptop there and pulled up the website that told them the girls story. It really caught the students attention.

The sad part to the story is that the the girl died about 30 minutes after class let out. Our thoughts are with the family.
I think this is an interesting illustration of how much money we are spending, in case you haven’t see this site already.

Recently I took some pictures of lights in the fog. I had some fun trying out different lighting effects.
I know it is past Christmas time, but here is a picture of Lucy and I Christmas caroling with our friends.
It snowed about half of an inch over night. I thought that the roads would not be a problem. I was not more that a mile from my home when I was sliding down the middle of the road with a car coming at me. My speed was not that fast, but I was relieved when the car moved to the side, to give me room. I straightened my car and kept on driving.
I had driven in a lot worse snow this year and didn’t have any problems before. I reasoned that Spruce Road must have frozen because of less traffic and that the main road would be fine.
A few minutes later I was heading down New Holland Road. Vehicles were moving at a decent speed, when I began fish tailing on the road. Because of my inexperience, I had a hard time pulling my car out of the swerving. Vehicles were approaching on the next lane and I knew that I straighten it out quickly. About that time I swerved off the road right into a corn field. Bumping across the rows must have straightened my car because I just pulled right back on the road and kept on going. I never stopped.
I am just awed that nothing worse happened. I am humbled that God choose to protect myself and the car.
