After seven weeks of working out, I’m feeling fantastic. My body mass index (BMI) is now below 27. If I can keep it up, I’ll be in the ideal weight range (between 19 and 25) before the start of summer. I was able to go for a run over the lunch hour today. I’m pleased […]

Times at Timber-Lee
I spent Friday evening and most of Saturday at Camp Timber-Lee, near East Troy, WI. I was there as a chaperone at the first ever ELCA Racine Cluster Confirmation Retreat. I got to do more than just watch over some young folks. I played in the worship band, which consisted of musicians from several churches […]
Famine Pictures. Yeah!
Right here!
Fill ‘er up, 20 bucks
Yup, gasoline prices are on the rise. Anyway, here’s the last installment in the Boston trip journal: Boston Trip, Days Three and Four – February 21-22 Every trip has a day during which you do practically nothing. Saturday was that day for us. We hung out at Sarah’s apartment, watching movies, playing cards, ordering Chinese […]
More weekend, please :)
The 30-hour famine is over. It’s always an interesting time when several youth and a few chaperones spend more than a day roaming about in the church building. The kids always get a little crazy near the end, but all things considered, they were great. Pictures will be up on the church web site by […]
Fast in progress…
My apologies for not promptly continuing the journal of the Boston trip. I’ll try and get back to that later this weekend. It is currently hour #7 of the annual 30-hour famine, sponsored by WorldVision. Youth and chaperones (that’s Jenelle and me) will be gathering at church later tonight. I’ll be taking pictures, and of […]
Palermo, you’re relieved
Jenelle and I had a frozen pizza for dinner tonight. It’s the last one I’ll have in quite a while. As some of you may already know, I am giving up pizza for Lent. I know that other people give up chocolate or meat or whatever, but I don’t eat those very much. I decided […]
Boston Photos up!
Check out photos from Boston here. I’ll share some details from the trip in the near future.
Weekend in Boston
Hi all! Sorry for the blog “outage” over the past week. From Thursday until today, Jenelle and I went to Boston to visit Sarah, who is Jenelle’s former roommate — she was also the maid of honor at our wedding. We had a great vacation out there, even though the weather was about the same […]
Merry Monday
Valentine’s weekend was a blast. Jenelle and I went shopping on both Saturday and Sunday. We went to the Olive Garden for dinner on Saturday night. Wow, what a crowd. All things considered, we didn’t really have to wait that long. On Sunday evening, we had dinner with my parents at Cortese’s, a quaint Italian […]
