That… Which Matters Most

  • Out and About: Kim Guthrie

    Walking in downtown McKinney, TX, the boys and I stumbled upon Kim Guthrie’s art studio. She didn’t hesitate to welcome us in her studio, which overlooks the street. I really enjoyed her paintings of the animals, especially the dogs. She also painted a picture of someone’s pet cow.  You can… Listen ⇢

  • Still Riding a Schwinn at 59

    I’m kind of in awe of the fact that at 59 years old, I’m still riding a Schwinn. However, I must admit, the Stingray was a lot more fun. Listen ⇢

  • Pull Up a Seat Challenge — Week 24

    Heidi actually had to point this one out to me. It’s sitting next to the fire pit where we stay on the river while visiting family. It took a moment for me to see what it was. But once she told me it was a seat, I saw it. Before… Listen ⇢

  • Out and About: Seth and His Boys

    Walking just west of downtown McKinney, I noticed a young boy watching a road crew and their heavy machinery. He was transfixed. It was almost alarming because I didn’t immediately see his parents. Then I noticed man, under a tree, with another child in stroller, staring intently in the boys… Listen ⇢

  • Social Distancing: Dan and Maryann

    If you haven’t figured out by now, my wife and I are refusing to drink the Koolaid of fear, known as the Covid 19 pandemic. Outside of me losing my job, we haven’t changed a thing. I did wear a bandana for a couple of days with the pretense of… Listen ⇢
