All Gussied Up--Lengthy facelift process really floats this little boat
I love my ol’ tin boat. It’s a 1994 Alweld, a 15 footer with thick walls built to take a beating, wide draft for stability and a true flat bottom that will float in some really skinny water. 02/21/2024 10:00 AM

I’m On the Winning Team
I’m On the Winning Team
Hello friends! It is me again! Hope you’re well! So It has been about two weeks since the Super Bowl and congrats to the Kansas City Chiefs with the win. Both teams put up a GREAT fight. But today I want to talk about being on the winning team. 02/21/2024 10:00 AM
Overtime Matters
Overtime Matters
As I reflect on the thrilling spectacle of the Super Bowl, particularly its climactic last five minutes and the heart-stopping overtime, I can’t help but draw parallels to the journey of faith and perseverance in our walk with God. The Super Bowl encapsulates many life lessons with its blend of strategy, talent, and sheer willpower. Yet, in those final, decisive moments, we often witness the true spirit of resilience, which speaks volumes to us as believers. 02/21/2024 10:00 AM
