I worked on my Verbal Surgery site this morning.

I’d recorded about 20 episodes of the podcast and have them on iTunes and my server, but not on the website. So I put links to the shows in one spot.

Enjoyed lunch with Kathy and Ashley. The girls had gone to a Women on Mission meeting that morning. Good to spend time with them!

I liked this motorcycle in the parking lot.

J and I met Ashley at the mission. Plenty to keep us busy!

We had some help from my friends at the Atlanta Chinese Christian Church North.

J got a futon for the mission. The company sent one of the four legs with a smaller screw than the other three. Bizarre. I got some Teflon tape to wrap it. Hopefully that will work.

Admin duties now.

Watched Ellen and Duck Dynasty with K.

Be prepared.

I thought this cloud was beautiful.

Had fun this morning recording a new podcast! A set time to say “Be creative—GO!”

This one is called “Brain 2.0” Just click on the title and groove!

Also went for a 4.40 mile run.

Man, it was really hot. I had to walk parts of it. The hotter it gets, the more pictures I take.

I thought this was weird looking. I think it’s praying mantis eggs.

Cool mushrooms.

Dead cicada.

Lichens indicating that this section of the tree is dead.

Brief rest then lunch with Jesse.

Cleaned the fish tank.

Then to the mission to work with the kids. Ash had to spend hours getting her phone fixed. We really need those phones so a good use of time.




Admin duties now.

Enjoyed watching Duck Dynasty with K.

Kathy and I went to the first day of the Stone Mill Church of Atlanta this morning!

Tito is the pastor of the church. We go back more than a decade.

I always love to be around the family!

Enjoyed supper at Ashley and Miles’ house. They are both GREAT cooks!

Admin duties now.

I didn’t see how this could work.

I thought this bark was interesting.

I liked this flower from the community garden.

Beauty!

Had a fun, restful day today!

Jesse practiced driving the Altima this afternoon. It isn’t easy learning a stick shift in Atlanta!

Had fun flying my AR Drone 2.0. Here’s the course I fly around.

Picked up sticks in the back yard.

Enjoyed watching Dallas Cowboy Cheerleader show with Kathy.

Admin duties now.

I liked this spider web.

And this mushroom that was covered with wood shavings.

Kathy and I went with Jesse to the doctor this morning. He’s doing great!

Had lunch together.

Picked up the Altima from T&G. They had to take the oil pan out, beat it back into shape and put a new oil sensor in it. Cost us about $300. Could have been WAY worse, especially if the car had hit other cars.

Came home to work on the mail box that the guy who stole our car ran into.

Dug the hole.

Took the mail box off the old post and cleaned it.

Put it on the new post.

Put the new post in the hole and started filling it slowly with concrete.

Looks good. Our postman gave it the thumbs up!

Brief rest then went to Azalea to work with the kids.



Home for admin duties. Watched the new Duck Dynasty with K. Always good!

These little red mushrooms were cool.

Does this mean they’re easier to hit?

I enjoyed making a new podcast!

Always one of my favorite things. Most people want to be happy. Here’s my take on the “Happy Zone!”

Yesterday I posted more of my witty sayings on the web. Over 82,000 followers.

Last night we had some excitement. I went out to my garage about 9:00 last night and my car was missing! Apparently, some kid in the neighborhood, got in it, put it in neutral and rolled it down the street. The key wasn’t in it, so it was impossible to start. Landed on the crepe myrtle in my neighbor’s yard.

Looks like the car will be ok. Some oil pan damage.

The stupid kid also wiped out the neighbor’s mailbox.

J and I got a new one. We started to dig the hole.

Went to the mission this afternoon. Always fun to work with the kids!

Tuesday I went for a 4.6 mile run. I always enjoy the flowers.


Home now for admin duties. Enjoyed watching Suits with K.

Beauty sunset!

Are you smarter than a sixth grader?

I wasn’t keen on following this guy in traffic.

I thought these clouds were magnificent.

We enjoyed going to CIBC Sunday morning.

We were late, but I still enjoyed getting to hear Phil’s sermon.

Doing God’s will.

We had 1/2″ of rain this weekend.

Monday morning I worked on a new podcast!

This one will remind you to “Hold Firm!” Click on the title, firmly!

Having a restful labor day weekend!

I like lichens.

I enjoyed a restful morning, then went for a 3.6 mile run. It felt like running in a terrarium. Glad it was only in the 80s! I always enjoy the beautiful flowers.

The hibiscus were amazing.

Delicate mushroom.

Had lunch and supper with Jesse! Always fun.

Picked up the Altima from my sister in law’s house.

In the afternoon, J and I went to my brother in law’s house to borrow his truck.

We moved a box springs from our house to Azalea.

Home now to work on admin duties and enjoy watching the Mentalist with K on dvr.

I thought this sticker was funny.

Did all my bills today.

Had a fun lunch with Kathy and Jesse. Jesse was really hungry. The hospital food wasn’t very good.

Did the grocery shopping.

Came home to rest then went to see 2 Guns. I really like Denzel and Mark but the movie was just ok.

Watched some baseball with Kathy at Mountain Park Park. Crazy name, right?

Admin duties now and time with K.

Cool mushrooms.

This sign reminded me of Jesse.

Monday morning Kathy woke me up at 6am to tell me that Jesse wasn’t doing well. I jumped out of bed, quickly packed a few things and was at Tybee Island by 11am.

Ashley and I got him to the hospital where they kept him for observation for a couple of days.

He’s back to 100%! Visiting hours were only in the evening so got to visit a few of my favorite places in Savannah.

Beautiful flowers on the beach.

Went to Bonaventure Cemetery to visit my grave. One day my kids will put my ashes under those big oaks.


It always reminds me of my mortality and to make every day count. Carpe diem! It’s my favorite cemetery in the world.

I spent a lot of time at St. John the Baptist Cathedral in Savannah.

I found it to be such a beautiful and peaceful place to pray for Jesse. I love the stained glass windows!

I always light a candle.

Last time I did that I was in Westminster Abbey in London!
Holy Water.

I support this!

I enjoy shooting pictures around Savannah.

I picked Jesse up from the hospital around 5pm. We ate a quick supper and headed back to Atlanta. GREAT to be home with my family safe and secure! Amen!

I like big bubbles.

And big planes. I think this is a C130.

What a weird knot on a tree.

I thought this movie was pretty funny.

I picked up this rock near river street. It’s part of a much larger rock that was brought from England to be used as ballast for the ship!

The cobblestone streets are awesome. History under foot. Ben Franklin and George Washington might have stepped on this rock!

Just a reminder!

This is what we saw as we were driving back from Savannah.
