Back from the Unknown

Good grief!! February was a bad month with only a few posts and March was without any at all. Perhaps I should explain “part” of the reason.

It started with not really having the time to do much in February. It seemed that something kept intruding on my evenings, when I prefer to write. We’ve also been involved with some things with church and doing things with and for our two sons.

Our oldest son and his wife have been trying to buy a house, and that has turned out to be a nightmare in development. The youngest son asked me to help him with the selection of a rifle, so that took a couple of weekends of looking at gun shops, plus some more time on firearms forums asking questions and reading.

The church issue is part of getting ready for what is called “Million Dollar Sunday” when a number of Church of Christ congregations will take up special contributions to help Eastern European Missions to place Bibles in public schools in the Ukraine. More of that story is at the following link:

But, I suppose the worst culprit for taking up some of my evenings was that I bought a multi-pack of John Wayne movies from the ‘30’s with a couple of documentaries. It had something like 25 movies plus the documentaries. As much as I like writing, I like John Wayne movies even better.

With all that explained, hopefully I can get back to a more regular schedule of writing, although I am still viewing a series of video lessons entitled, “The Last Days According to Jesus.” That video is based on a book by the same title written by R. C. Sproul. Once I’ve absorbed more of that series, I may have some comments about “the last days.”

With luck, I can soon return to telling about our vacation in Colorado in 2009 and showing some more pictures.

Wish me luck and better concentration.

Oh, that was the problem…..I DIDN’T do anything for about a month and a half.  Sorry for wasting your time in looking to see what I might have written.
