Finding our way to The Way one situation at a time. I don't know how great it will be, but I expect it will be interesting, and I look forward to it going on past all reason because wonder is just that way. Are you coming or not?
Horseshoe Bend — Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, Page, Arizona, Colorado River
I crawled to the lip of the canyon to take this photograph, amid the laughter of other photographers gathered about. I got the picture and they got to laugh. Worked out well, I say. A little something for everyone.
We have to know what our limits are and honor them by living within them. This gets us back to the bit about the difference between trusting our luck and pushing our luck, and knowing when our body draws a line and respecting our sense of where that line lies. And living to tell the tale.
I'm retired, and still finding my way--but now, I don't have to pretend that I know what I'm doing.
I retired after 40.5 years as a minister in the Presbyterian Church USA, serving churches in Louisiana, Mississippi and North Carolina. I graduated from Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary, in Austin, Texas, and Northwestern State University in Natchitoches, Louisiana. My wife, Judy, and I have three daughters, five granddaughters, one great granddaughter, and a great grandson on the way, within about ten minutes from where we live--and are enjoying our retirement as much as we have ever enjoyed anything.

I have seen my limits. I recognize them and know them. Actually it’s a help to me to be able to say “no” instead of wasting time and brain cells attempting to convince myself that ….. peace
