This morning I worked on my newsletter. I wrote it about one of my favorite little boys, Diego!

Went to Walmart to pick up some supplies.

Saw this game there. Only in America!

Kathy needed some vitamins. I reckon she’ll like these.

For some inexplicable reason, I couldn’t find my vitamin box this morning. Weird. I bought another one.

Still not feeling 100%. Went out to Stone Mountain for a little while to soak up some sun. Feel better now.

Largest single rock on the planet!

Took K out for Chinese food. She’s not feeling well at all. She thought that some sizzling rice soup might help. By George, I think it did!

I liked this old car outside the restaurant. Groovy, baby!


Don’t make ’em like that any more!

Enjoyed a good talk with Jesse. He’s on Portland right now. He liked going to the zoo. Sure do miss him!

Had a nice rest day today.

Feeling a bit less than my regular Tiger Tank self. Having trouble falling asleep. I reckon it’s West Coast to East Coast jetlag.

Rained over an inch last night.

Went to the movies today with Kathy. Watched Killer Elite. I liked it. Not exactly a chick flick, however.

Back home working on admin duties.

We’re supposed to babysit tonight. Hopefully, Kylie won’t be as sad as she was last time. She cried for at least two hours straight!

Sounds like something I’d say!

This morning I worked on a new podcast! I really enjoyed making this one!

“Wonder Full!” Click on the title and ENJOY!

Ashley and I worked at the mission at Azalea today. K’s not feeling very well.
The kids had a lot of homework. Always keeps us busy! They were sure glad to see me back!

I liked Rashawn’s project on Texas!

On the way home we stopped at Best Buy. My camera, which I dearly love (Canon SD 1400) started really overexposing any picture where I zoomed in.

Heartbreak city.

Fortunately, I always get a warranty on cameras and camcorders. I filled out all the paperwork to get the camera sent back to the repair facility. Depending on the problem, I’ll either get mine back fixed, or they’ll upgrade me to the newest model. It shoots 1080p HD Video which is sweet, but I don’t think it looks as cool as my model.

Admin work now.

Feeling a bit weak. Worn out I reckon. My throat is a bit scratchy. Thanks for praying for me!

GREAT to be back in the ATL!

Had a safe trip to San Diego. Got to see my good friends from England and met a lot of new ones too!

I have many gigabytes of pictures! Sadly, my last day there my camera started acting weird. Even though I’m super careful, I just flat wear them out!

Kathy picked me up from the airport. I like to drive through the center of town at night. What beauty!

Can’t wait to see the kids at the mission tomorrow!

The good news is that thanks to my iPhone I really stay pretty much caught up with work. And Ashley has done a great job helping with the financials. I have an AWESOME team, baby!

This morning I went over to my doctor’s office.

They sure have taken care of us!

Dr. Barrington has been our team leader for our trip to India.

I picked up my passport in case I need it when I’m in California!

Might just decide to take a short excursion into Mexico with my friends from England.

Drove to Alpharetta to pick up some binders from my partners at the North American Mission Board.


We can always use those!

Picked up another SD card for my camera. 8 GB for $17.99! AMAZING!

Enjoyed hanging out at the bookstore. Had a great talk with Jesse while I was there. He’s on his way to Chicago now.

This is on of the books I’m enjoying right now. Are you a reader?

What’s the longer line?

It’s a famous illusion. Measure it!

Men need changing too!

“It’s easier to change a baby than change your mind.” If you like that quote, you need to check out my PROVERBS on our website!

Groovy game!

I liked this card. Looked like something I would do.

I liked this tree bark outside the bookstore.

Couldn’t you imagine writing on that paper?

Then to my office to drop off the binders.

And to work with the kids at the mission.

Are you smarter than a 4th grader?

Can you guess where I ate supper?

Enjoyed watching TV with K this evening.

Admin duties.

Looking forward to my trip to Cali with good buddies! Head West, young man!

And never, never forget!

Had a fun morning today getting ready for my trip to San Diego later this week. I’m looking forward to seeing my friends from England again!

Ashley and I went to Azalea to help the kids.

Kathy had another project she was working on, so we had to handle them by ourselves. Sure miss K!

The kids had a LOT of homework so we were super busy.

But we love our work!

The kids and one of the moms helped me clean out the refrigerator. It was pretty gross.

Ashley and I had huevos rancheros on the way home. Oh, yeah!

Home now working on admin duties. It’s all good!

Worked on a new podcast this morning. One of my best and most powerful!
“9.11 Love” Click on the title and Feel GOOD, now!

Had a fun lunch today with two of my favorite people: Ian North and Bayo Otiti!

We enjoyed a good meal and talking about our missions. Ian and I spent time at Barnes and Noble discussing movies. We both love ’em!

Went over to Azalea to join Ashley and Kathy to help the kids with their homework. Always a lively group. I’ve especially enjoyed working with the pre-K kids!


But ALL my kids are great!





I’m sure you’re smarter than a first grader!

Our schools even have contracts for spelling!

Kathy and I had a wonderful time to get away for the weekend!


We always look forward to our TK weekends.

We did a LOT of exercise. We rode the bikes for miles and miles. As well as hiking up some of the local mountains. From the summit!

Interesting erosion.

It is such a beautiful place and the weather was awesome.

There was a circus in town.

We had fun checking out the animals.

I liked this shot of the moon.

This car was completely rebuilt. Except for the exterior!

I thought the labyrinth at St. James church was fascinating.

I liked these signs.

We visited Camp Pinnacle while we were there. Beauty!

I also enjoyed checking out the antique stores in Dillard.

I bought this antique globe from the early 40s. I collect old globes. Know my criterium? Tanzania has to be Tanganyika. It changed its name in 1964.

And also this recorded cylinder from the Edison Recording studios. It’s the earliest type of recorded media.

Got both of my new treasures for $20, so I was happy!

I wonder what he’s smokin?

Always on the lookout for flowers!

I prefer my optimo very mild.

I wanted this toy typewriter. Maybe next time . . . .

I like old fences.

Good price. Sign me up!

We hiked around Warwoman Mountain. We liked this chimney.

And this saw blade.

The pine tree grew around the vine.

I thought this one looked like a python.

This spider was bigger than the palm of my hand. I thought twice before sticking my hand down as an example.

We also explored an old cemetery for blacks outside of Clayton. Penland Cemetery had some cool stuff.

I liked these carvings!

I thought these millstones were cool!

We ate at Oinkers for lunch today. Excellent BBQ!

I liked the old RR station at Tallulah Falls.

Fun trip. But glad to be home!

Had a fun day with Jesse today!

Helped him get some last minute stuff for his cross country trip around the mighty USA! Bought me some new pants for my trip to San Diego next week and India in October.

Then over to Azalea to help the kids.

I like when the moms help.

Angel hurt his knee. I had to doctor him up!

We ate some Mexican food then took Jesse over to the Amtrak station.


Family shot!

All aboard!

2 minutes before departure!

He was way earlier than that!

Did you know my Grandfather and my Uncle both worked on the Railroad?

I liked these birds on the line.

I shot the cars on 85 of “Fireworks” mode. That’s how you get the streaking. Beauty!

Ashley and I love shooting!

Just in case you forgot.

I can’t believe how cool it was today! Actually wore long pants and shoes!

We got a little over a 1/2″ of rain yesterday. GREAT for us! Wish some of it would go to help put out the fires in Texas!

Had a fun time taking the mission team from the Grace Brethren International Mission board around Atlanta!

It was interesting to watch the Hindu service with the group. We had fun meeting some nice folks from Nepal who were visiting the Mandir (Hindu temple.)

This is their song sheet. It’s in Sanskrit!

An English version on the back.

The big festival honoring Ganesha had just completed.

It was fun to meet new friends who were opening up a 24 hour Spanish TV station in Atlanta. Groovy!

We had some pastries at the White Windmill. Beauty!

We also checked out Plaza Fiesta, CD Tower and the Buford Highway Farmers Market.

This tshirt was at Plaza Fiesta. Borracho means drunk.

I liked this big globe at the Buford Highway Farmers Market.

It was great to also have the team come and help us at the mission. We always need help!

Mohosana’s mom came to visit.

Admin jobs now.
