Had about 3/4″ of rain yesterday. Groovy!

Ashley and I had a good time with my friend Shawn James from 12 Stone Church today! They are big supporters of what we’re doing. We had fun taking him to Plaza Fiesta. Looking like a mariachi!

Went to Providence Christian Academy. I had a little gift for Carl Barrington. He mentioned he liked the mineral bismuth. While I was at the rock show last weekend, I got him a nice sample. Always great to see Carl!

Picked up Jesse on the way to Home Depot.

We bought a large piece of white board for Ashley to use with her kids. Looks good!

Worked with the kids at the mission. Tried to get a computer hooked up but BOTH of them had the same problem of not sending a video signal to the monitor. I was flummoxed by its’ lack of cooperation.

Came home to work on admin duties.

I liked this sticker.

That’s a serious drill bit.

This is a scene from a video game I’m playing called “Far Cry 3.” Beautiful game!

Had a fun morning today! I always enjoy it when I’m recording!

I think you’ll really like this one.“Pretend and BECOME!” It’s simple and thought provoking at the same time. At least IMHO!

Enjoyed a fun lunch with Ashley, J and K! Extra bonus we had Ian and Ruthie North with us! WOOT!



POURED down rain during lunch. We enjoyed a cup of coffee while the rain slowed down. I liked this glass.

Came home to rest and work on admin tasks.

Back to the mission to help the kids with their homework. GREAT to have the whole family there. Kathy usually spends her time in Clarkston.

Nur has a big paper due on Gandhi on Thursday.

Seven typed pages? Oh, Lord. I can see a lot of stress on the horizon. I got her started, we’ll see what happens.

Also enjoyed helping Jarin and Marium figure out the phases and the moon.

Helped Jeffrey make up sentences on his spelling words. How about “chin,” or “chip?” Got a sentence?

Rainy at the mission.

I liked the splashes with the lights reflecting in the little pool of water.

Home now. More admin. Finish watching a movie on Quantum Mechanics.

I showed you my meteorite and my Alexander the Great coin, here’s my ostrich skull I got this weekend!

My favorite concrete footprint.

I liked this 3D Peacock.

Who inspected YOU?

Jesse and I got an early start to Marietta. Visited the coin show.


He bought me my Christmas present. It’s a Greek Drachm from Alexander the Great! It’s solid silver and over 2,300 years old. Groovy!

My friend Steve, runs the table at the coin show that has ancient coins. I find that fascinating.

I asked him what his two most interesting coins were today. He thought about then showed me to dinarius coins from Roman emperors Julius Caesar and Nero.

Pretty amazing.

Came home to rest, then raked the yard. HUGE job.

Resting now. Need it.

I liked this.

Aren’t they all?

Jesse and I had a fun lunch at Thai of Norcross!

Then over to the giant Rock and Fossil show! Love that stuff!

Remind you of anything?

Loved the dinosaur footprints!

I bought this meteorite for $30. Happy!

It’s from the Campo de Cielo field in Argentina.

I liked this ammonite.

Sulfur crystals.

Dried bats make me sad.

This is the rear leg of a Triceratops.

Dinosaur eggs.

Even met up with my good friend Carl Barrington there! Yow!

Came on home to rest and work on admin duties.

Enjoying Mentalist with K now.

I found this sticker disturbing.

Interesting.

I reckon this is true.

Had a fun, restful day!

Worked on posting some social media this morning.

We ate some great pizza at Pizza Cafe. I ran into a friend of mine there.


Topped off with a bike ride with Kathy!

Finished up my admin duties for the day.

Setting up events for Christmas and for 2013!

Finish up admin duties and watch TV with J and K.

I liked this sticker.

Do you like this perspective?

A house lit up on the other side of the valley.

They’re going everywhere!

Beautiful sunset.

Had lunch with Jesse and Kathy today! Fun!

J and I went to talk to some folks at a retirement home and at a rehab clinic about a Pain Control seminar I’m offering. It’s amazing to me how much your imagination and concentration can influence the perception of pain! I dressed up to talk to the doctors.

Went to the mission to work with the kids at the mission. Always fun!

The Pileated Woodpecker is one of my favorite birds! Jarin did a great job on this.

Home now to work on admin duties and to watch the Quantum Activist.

I liked this leaf.

And the fiery tree!

Worked on a new podcast this morning! Groovy!

I love this episode! Check out “Switch ON!” Throw the switch!

Worked on the job descriptions for our staff at Whirlwind Missions. It’s good to go through and write down exactly what it is we do! It’s a lot!

Dropped some chocolate candy off at my treasurer’s house. Jon is the BEST!

Helped the kids at the mission.

Nearly finished the book report with Jhoan. Looking good!

Home now for admin duties and rest.

I liked this sticker.

Trees need a home.

Can’t believe how beautiful the weather was today!

Went to Concept 21–The Corners to sign the new lease for the mission. Always good news!

Had a fun time at the mission today! Good to work with the kids!

We had our Annual Board Meeting of Whirlwind Mission this evening with four dear friends!

It was fun to have Ashley on board to give half of the report. She always makes us look good!


We ate a Toreros this evening to celebrate having our meeting!

Home now for admin duties.

These tires are solid!

Never a good thing.

I liked this slogan.

Ashley, Jesse and I had fun with my good friend Chip Sweeney from Perimeter Church. We started working in this area together since 1999!


Always fun at Plaza Fiesta!

Then over to meet with my partner Rob Martin from Mobilizing Students. He brought a new friend from Naples, Florida—- Kevin Taylor. We took him by some of the missions and introduced him to Ian and Ruthie North and Bayo Otiti.

Worked with the kids at the mission. Always fun.

Ashley, Jesse and I went through what we’re going to share with the Board tomorrow evening. I think we have all the documents we need now.

Home now working on Admin Duties.

I liked this truck. It reminded me of video games.

These clouds were cool with the con trail.

Spent most of my day working on our annual Board Report.

Ashley and I put together a document that sums up what we’ve accomplished this year. I make copies of some of what we do from our web site.

This is from my blog and Facebook accounts.

Beautiful weather today!

Kathy and I enjoyed celebrating with our good friend Bayo Otiti today!


He had the opening of his office and chapel in Clarkston at our church at CIBC.


Great to see good friends!

Looking forward to a busy week that includes our Board Meeting!

Man, this looks retro.
