Tail Dancing — Huntington Beach State Park, Murrell’s Inlet, South Carolina

This is a snapshot of life as it is and as it ought to be. This is the natural world being natural. Doing its “thing.” Being what it is. With everything minding its own business, tending its own affairs. Everything is exactly as it needs to be. And the photograph is my way of honoring nature’s way of managing its life everyday throughout time throughout the cosmos, with everything being exactly what it needs to be every day.

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.
