I was raised in church. I’ve often joked with folks that in the church of my youth, the pastor had to push his way through the our family to get the doors unlocked. That experience formed me and gave me some connections that have lasted my lifetime. We changed our church affiliation when I was…
Healthy, Frugal, and Better Than I Expected
The July 4th holiday of this year found us out camping in Copper Breaks State Park, which, incidentally, is one of only 73 International Dark Sky Parks in the world as of this writing. In July it also has the potential to be rather warm. This particular day was one of the warm ones. One…
