We caught some very low tides on our April trip to Vancouver Island. One day, we walked for miles on a smooth sandy beach out to a rocky outcrop hoping to spy some starfish, but they evaded us! We didn’t have time to check the next beach north where we’ve seen them on other trips, […]

A Day in the Life of an Author
Okay, fine, I can’t speak for anyone else. Also, my days are not all alike, of course! But this has morphed into something fairly typical. I do best with a schedule. Not everyone does! 7:00 — wake up! I don’t set an alarm, so this varies, but not usually by much. 7:01 — flip on […]

We’re still visiting Vancouver Island in Sunday Editions today and next week! We’re always on the lookout for “Bob” the harbor seal when we get to the ocean. It’s kind of a rite of passage. If we haven’t seen Bob yet, are we SURE we’re at the ocean??? We saw up to five bobbing seals […]

Shaking Off the Lies

Maybe, like Arleigh O’Neill, you heard the words out loud from someone who should have been there for you. Someone like a spouse or a beloved parent. […]

Last Sunday was Easter! I loved sitting in church with my daughter and all my grandgirls, singing old Easter hymns as well as newer ones. Loved the reminders of just what Jesus meant when, on the cross, He announced, “It is finished.” Then we came home and the remainder of the clan arrived and we […]

Low in the grave He lay — Jesus my Savior! Waiting the coming day — Jesus my Lord! Up from the grave He arose, With a mighty triumph o’er His foes; He arose a Victor from the dark domain, And He lives forever with His saints to reign. He arose! He arose! Hallelujah! Christ arose! […]
