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…

The Original Painter

I want to start this little blog today with a big thank you to everyone for your prayers yesterday. My husband is doing well, in and out of cataract surgery in record time. Recheck today and he’s on to clearer days ahead 🙂 . Over the past few days, I have seen some amazing pictures…

Secretariat Lessons

Last night I watched the movie Secretariat. If you haven’t seen it, I highly recommend it. Of course, it’s a movie depicting the life of admittedly the greatest racehorse of our time.

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…

Can You Just Guide Me

I think we have all probably been in a place where we feel lost. We’re struggling to make heads or tales of whatever is in our hands. We feel like we are floating on the ocean and there is no lighthouse or beach to guide us. I know I have been there, many times in…

Sweet Emily Rea

If you’ve been following this little blog for the past year you know that I’ve often asked for prayers for sweet Emily Rea. Emily is the niece of a dear friend of mine and she went missing on July 16th, 2024. She went to paddleboat at a Montana reservoir where she frequently did so. You…

Fit Them In

I’m spending the next few days with family in town. My stepmom is here for a visit. She’s making her way around the country to see family and friends on kind of a whirlwind tour so to speak. We haven’t seen each other in over a year, in person at least so this visit is…
