This past week has been about as busy as possible! But at least it’s all (or mostly) good stuff. Last weekend Carolyn and I celebrated our fourth anniversary and spent the weekend with my family in the Baltimore-D.C. area.

Zoo Babies
Carolyn and I made what has become our weekly zoo trip a few days ago. Sometimes I tease her about how much she likes the zoo, but I have to admit that there’s always something different there. On this visit we heard the wolves howling at some nearby sirens, saw a prairie dog jump on a… Continue reading

Shorebirds & Zooperstars
Last weekend Carolyn and I went to a Shorebirds game. It was the first time I’ve seen them lose this year. It was a pitchers’ duel until the end of the game when the Shorebirds allowed runners to score from third on a passed ball–twice in a row. But it was still fun. Between innings… Continue reading

My Summer Preaching Cave
This summer I’m trying a big experiment that I’m really praying will work. Here’s the deal: I have set a summertime goal of writing preaching outlines for all my sermons up through the spring, and writing sermon manuscripts through the end of 2008. It’s a big goal, to be sure. Here are some reasons I’m… Continue reading

The Second-Best Guacamole Ever
Just so you know, on Saturday I made the second-best guacamole I’ve ever made. It was a delightful surprise. Avocados were on sale at Food Lion, so I got four of them. The first one I cut open was just gorgeous. Not too soft, not too hard–just right. It was one of those one-in-a-million avocados… Continue reading
