The Things We Do For Show


Tom, my friend and brother in Christ in South Jersey, had some fun with the photo I posted below. You see Tom was jealous. I live in paradise and he lives in snow, cold, and miserable weather. Seriously, Tom is pretty creative so he altered my photo. He couldn't leave well enough alone, he had to "show" off. :-) Thanks Tom, I miss you.

Bob the Builder


It was Bob The Builder Day at the Harden Early Children Center here at Mt. Dora Bible School. As you can see I fit right in with 4 and 5 year olds. The kids know me as "Mr. Bob" so it wasn't much of a stretch for me to play the part of Bob The Builder at their Bob The Builder Day. One of the parents runs a rental center and he brought a couple of machines (a skip loader and a roller) for the kids to climb on during the day. I really enjoy spending time with the kids at chapel and other special events. I also get to meet parents at special events as well. I'm hoping my time with them will one day open opportunities with their families for sharing the gospel. Until then, I'm having fun!

The Things We Do For Love


Pat has a special love for Christmas time. Even though I'm not necessarily as enthusiastic about all the holiday trimmings I try to make sure that I do what I can to make her pleased. One of the trimmings she really loves is icicle lights around the house. I'm not fond of heights. Being up on a roof makes me nervous. In South Jersey our roof wasn't very steep so I got used to it. Our roof here in Florida is rather steep and I'm nervous just being on it. But add in putting up lights and I'm even more so. Fortunately only a short portion of the roof requires that I actually get on the roof to hang lights. I'm sure over time I will get used to this roof. But for now I do it for love. I want my DW to have a good time each year during the holidays. So I've re-titled the song "The Things I Do For Pat."
