My $550 Mistake
Well, to put it lightly, I took “learning the hard way” to a whole new level. You may have seen my article, “Celebrating Milestones,” at the beginning of the year. Ray and I went to Cancun, Mexico for a few days of warmth and relaxation in January. When I shared the video I made about Continue reading

Tandem Adventures
Two years ago, Ray & I went on an epic road trip with our tandem bicycle in tow (on the top of his Ford Explorer). This trip was a celebration of 35 years of marriage, and our first time crossing the US/Canadian border. We scheduled stays in Washington, USA, Vancouver Island, BC, Vancouver, Canada, and Continue reading

Celebrating Milestones!
Ray & I decided to go somewhere warm for our celebration. After many long days of us cooped up in our respective offices – me working on Cherished Hymns and him working toward the “Go Live” date at his work, we decided we were going to spend a few days for true Rest and Relaxation. Continue reading

Labor Day
In honor of Labor Day (tomorrow), and the fact that we were at a church campout most of the week, I am taking this week off from my normal blog post. I love collecting pathway photographs. It became a “thing” for me many years ago when Microsoft had a series of desktop wallpapers that were Continue reading

Favorite Memories
I just returned from a week-long trip to Tennessee with my oldest daughter and her oldest son. We flew on four planes, stayed in an Atlanta airport hotel the first and last night, and spent five nights at my middle daughter and her husband’s home in Ooltewah, Tennessee. We had lots of adventures, and one Continue reading

Cycling Fitness & Lifestyle
We were just young adults having a good time when Ray, Karl, and I used to go out late at night and ride around playing “cops and robbers” on our bicycles. In those days, I had no idea that I would become Ray’s wife a few years later, or the role that bicycles would play Continue reading

Where They Lived
We celebrated our 36th Wedding Anniversary this week with a little trip to McMinnville. When we were headed back home the next evening, it dawned on me that there was a definite theme for our little holiday. This happened quite by accident because I had brochures and notes about several places we had passed by Continue reading

Working
Today I stopped by the Middle School where I worked as a Registrar for 4 1/2 years. Even though I don’t miss working at the school with all of the behavior issues of the students, sometimes I miss the life of working with a group of people that I care about outside my home. I Continue reading

Journeys
After being gone 3 more nights than I originally planned, I’m finally home and happy for the things I experienced and learned on my journey. Some things were really hard to go through, but in every bad situation I have a positive takeaway and thanksgiving in my heart. I think it is the beginning of Continue reading
About Me
Thinking about the line from Karen Carpenter’s song, “…don’t worry that it’s not good enough for anyone else to hear…” I have been inspired to “just sing” (and write, and share).
I produced a weekly blog for a little over a year, but now I’m committed to one article a month. I hope to give a little inspiration to those passing by, either through my blog articles or within the other pages I’ve created here.
