It was back at World Con in 2016, in our hometown of Kansas City, that we met author Rob Howell and I started reading his books. For a review of his book A Lake Most Deep just follow the link I placed in the book title. Because today's post is going to be on his book … Continue reading Riddle me this: I am a Wondrous Thing
Author: Sir Rhodri
Creational and relational type Renaissance man (writer, singer, thinker) holding to C.S Lewis's credo that if you follow truth originality takes care of itself, (anyway, originality is so yesterday, anyway.) That I have my wonderful wife Jasini is proof enough for me that life isn't fair. If it was fair I wouldn't have her, and instead she is my most faithful example that I am blessed beyond measure. My two adult children are the same unmerited blessing to me. We should all be thankful life is not fair but blessed.
A Blast of the Past #122: Rocky
Hard to realize that it has already been 8 years. Sept. 12, 2009 we went to Wayside Waifs and adopted Rocky (called Devito at Wayside, after Danny Devito, because of our dog's short legs). Here are the pictures when he first came home. We were warned we couldn't leave him out in a back yard, … Continue reading A Blast of the Past #122: Rocky

#243: Room at the Cross for You
(Part of a series singing through the hymnbook I grew up with: Great Hymns of the Faith) 1 The cross upon which Jesus died Is a shelter in which we can hide; And its grace so free is sufficient for me, And deep is its fountain – as wide as the sea. CHORUS There’s room … Continue reading #243: Room at the Cross for You
A nod, a wave, a honk
When I ride my bicycle, I am much more alert of drivers around me than most of them are of the cyclist around them. I actively watch and make an effort to engage them. When a driver is coming toward me I will usually lift my hand off the handle bar and give a small … Continue reading A nod, a wave, a honk
Fitness Update
This past week was a rest week. I did the requisite biking for commuting, but other than that, I pretty much slept until time to get up for work, and went to bed early. My sleep numbers looked good. I did finally feel rested about Saturday, when the work week was done -- go figure. … Continue reading Fitness Update
#242: Jesus, I Come
(Part of a series singing through the hymnbook I grew up with: Great Hymns of the Faith) 1 Out of my bondage, sorrow and night, Jesus I come, Jesus, I come; Into Thy freedom, gladness and light, Jesus, I come to Thee. Out of my sickness into Thy health, Out of my want and into … Continue reading #242: Jesus, I Come
Technology Day
Today has been a technology day. At this point it has ended on a positive note, though it didn't begin there. I woke up, took the dog for a walk with the bicycle, and then came back to check my e-mail. I needed to print a document so I could sign, scan and return it. … Continue reading Technology Day
A Blast of the Past #121: Hannibal
For living in Missouri, we haven't seen the sites of the state very often. I've never stopped for the sights of Saint Louis. But we have managed sections of Hannibal -- we enjoy passing through Hannibal more than St. Louis on our way east-west across the state. Here are the pictures from our 2009 stop … Continue reading A Blast of the Past #121: Hannibal
