(Part of a series singing through the hymnbook I grew up with: Great Hymns of the Faith) 1 What can wash away my sin? Nothing but the blood of Jesus; What can make me whole again? Nothing but the blood of Jesus. REFRAIN Oh! precious is the flow That makes me white as snow; No … Continue reading #212: Nothing But the Blood
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.
Cedar Fair Parks Tour: Michigan’s Adventure
Michigan’s Adventure was perhaps the nicest park, as a total package, to be able to go to and enjoy in one day.

But I am going to … Continue reading Cedar Fair Parks Tour: Michigan’s Adventure

Fitness Update: end of vegging
Another week in the car or roaming amusement parks. The activity of the parks does not counterbalance the inactivity of the car -- not even with the occasional leisurely run factored into the mix. When I got back to the scale at the work wellness center, I found my 2.5 weeks away included a 5 … Continue reading Fitness Update: end of vegging

Race for your Life, Charlie Brown

So, enjoy the preview, and know we enjoyed the viewing through Amazon Prime.
