This past Sunday at Elevation Church, we had a guest speaker – Pastor Terrell Murphy of New Birth Charlotte. Wow, it has been a long time a-comin’ for me to hear a black preacher. I’m not going to waiver to the political correctness of ‘African-American’ because in the black neighborhood I grew up [...]
I have been
when it comes to my McBlog. Dana’s a planner; she typed out a week’s worth of posts before we started packing up the RV. Me? I watched 24.
RoadRunner internet was finally installed in our new home yesterday (aahhhhhhhh….) but low and behold I forgot my laptop charger at church on Sunday. [...]
We’re sitting in the parking lot of the IT building at JAARS so we can get a wireless signal.
The RV is safe and secure at the missions house and we just returned the truck a STRANGER loaned to us! Bout to head out of the lot… just wanted you hear that things are going absolutely [...]

We have a stats page where we can monitor our website activity (don’t worry, it doesn’t give me driving directions to your house). It tells us things like the number of hits each day and for the month; the bandwidth we’ve used each day and month; the most popular pages (Dana’s Avenue BY FAR!); [...]

Occasionally Teddy (our bigger(?) dog) plays with his food. I have tried and tried to catch him doing it on camera but he either gets distracted by what I’m grabbing or the camera is MIA at the time. Those days are in the past now that I caught this on Sunday. Please [...]
I have filled out two brackets for the RV Hoops ESPN Tournament Challenge group. Got one? Two? Twenty? Bring ‘em on! Join the group. I created it. Who else would take the route of a title referencing an RV?!
I love this time of year. The birth of Jesus is [...]
