The God we are thanking on Thanksgiving Day
Before I say anything else, I need to write a retraction from my Happy Thanksgiving post. My father pointed out to me that my nephew, Nate, graduated from the University of Oregon, not Oregon State University. My apologies to Nate and to any Ducks fans out there! Continue reading

We’re just a little further south, and it was a much more interesting landscape going across today. The weather was perfect; almost balmy even! Continue reading
