Spirituality. Politics. Music. Life.
Leaving the hospital with my father-in-law just now, we shared an elevator down with an evangelical/Bible Church preacher. I’ve done enough hospital visits over twenty years to be able to pick them out. He was a short man. A foot shorter than me. Stocky. Built like an NFL linebacker. How did I know he was […]

“Daisy, Daisy give me your answer do. I’m half crazy all for the love of you.” Daisy joined our family a year ago today. After some months grieving our dog, Grace, Dennise and me had agreed that “sometime after the first of the year” would be a good time to look for a new one. […]

The Sisyphus of White Rock Lake Here’s a picture from today’s bike ride around White Rock Lake. For those unfamiliar, it’s up on the dam, looking south toward the spillway. There’s about a 60 foot grassy drop off to the right, and you can see a bit of the lake to the left. […]
Read MoreFor ten years, Dennise and I have lived with the memory of one of the most terrifying journeys we ever took. It was a pre-GPS navigation world. It was a pre-digital-photography world too. But since we have both now, we recreated this journey the other day, such that we now have pictures to tell the […]
Read MoreSome days, you really do feel the past and future come together and touch each other. Today was one of those days for us, as Dennise and me went back to visit “Kasha-Katuwe, aka Tent Rocks,” here in New Mexico. You may recall that back in May, I blogged about our 20-year anniversary. Even though […]
Read MoreToday is The Judge’s birthday. I won’t spill the beans on how old she is. That would be foolish on my part. Btw, if you’ve considered getting a gift, I would suggest that campaign contributions make a very nice one. 🙂 But as you’d imagine, I’m deeply grateful she was born. I’ve been meditating on […]
Read MoreWent back to the cardiologist yesterday for a check up. First time back since my procedure about six weeks ago. To refresh your memory, a few months back, I was diagnosed with “extra beats” in my heart rhythm. The technical term is “Premature Ventricular Contraction,” or PVC. (“Like the pipe,” the doc sez) If you […]
Read MoreTwenty years ago today, at 4 pm, The Judge and me walked down the long aisle at Highland Park Methodist and said our wedding vows. As I knew would eventually be the case, I can’t consciously recall much about that day now, and so I’m mighty pleased to have the pictures. The first thing that […]
