I had the opportunity to help in my father-in-laws garden earlier tonight and the first cucumber and squash were found!! I get pretty excited because this is some good food and it's a payoff for some hard back breaking work on behalf of my wife's dad. Planting a garden takes work! You plow the

I'm learning to relax and let the weather be whatever it is. I've learned that it does no good to complain about the rain, humidity, frigid tempatures. What I really need to do is prepare for the weather. If it's cold I wear a coat or jacket. If it's raining take an umbrella. If its.... you get t

My family and I are on Spring Break this week and today we went to Cloudland Canyon State Park in Northern Georgia. It is a beautiful display of God's handiwork. We had a picnic lunch and then set off to hike to the two waterfalls. One is closer than the other, but they are both deep down in the
