« Previous EntriesFinal Vacation Post – Catskill Game Farm
Wednesday, August 30th, 2006We’re b…a…c…k from vacation. Judah at the venerable Catskill Game Farm. After 73 years, the Game Farm is closing for good in October. Diana and I both have such great childhood memories from there that we had to take Judah. He made the most of the experience! Photo Set. Despite prolonged withdrawal the first few [...]
Theological thought of the day
Saturday, August 26th, 2006No sickly sweet, pie in the sky BS here: “I would have lost heart, unless I had believed that I would see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living†(Ps. 27:13).
He’s now a believer
Saturday, August 26th, 2006Last night, looking at pictures of his vacation, Judah declared: “I can’t believe I did this, daddy. I mean, I find it hard to believe.â€Â
4.2 miles
Saturday, August 26th, 2006Judah hiked that distance to the summit of Hunter Mountain last Thursday. I’m still in awe. We had taken the “Skyride†chairlift 1600 ft. up the mountain, where I half-expected him to wander around for fifteen minutes before getting bored and taking the return trip down the mountain.

52°

Better than the movies and even Chuck-E-Cheese
Saturday, August 26th, 2006That was the consensus of three children after ferrying from Newbury Port, Massachusetts, to Shoal Islands, off the coast of Maine and New Hampshire, last Monday night. Sandwiched between two, one-hour boat trips (the second one at sunset), Judah and his cousins Willie and Amber spent two hours climbing the rocky shores of Star Island. [...]
Bloggin’ from McD’s in Oneonta, NY
Saturday, August 26th, 2006$2.99 for 2 hrs. of McDonald’s “free” wi-fi internet access. Judah’s back at the farm with Grandma for a couple of hours …
Went to a Marlins game
Sunday, August 20th, 2006… after church this afternoon. What a great surprise, courtesy of Tony Requejo and his family. They beat the Braves, 4-3; had the Marlins played any other team besides the Braves or the Giants, I would have rooted against them. But today, it was fun seeing them spank Atlanta. Thanks also to Ron and his [...]
Off
Saturday, August 19th, 2006For about 10-14 days. Flying to Florida tonight to preach in the morning at my youth pastor’s church, then catching up with Di and Judah in Boston tomorrow for a much needed vacation. See ya soon.
