The Little Towns

Yesterday a friend of mine posted a picture on social media. He is the owner of an event venue back in our hometown. The venue used to be a confectionery store back in the day. The building that it resided in was built in 1890, and that business opened in the building in 1898. It…

Summer Help

He Made US

I was having dinner with some folks last night, several were much younger than me, like my youngest daughter’s age. So, yes, young enough to be my children. I was listening to their conversation about technology. They talked about how they don’t use cash, they use Apple Pay for everything, they even use their watch…
