  • Johnny Walker Black

    A number of weeks ago, I posted something on Facebook about adopting a new habit. That habit was Johnnie Walker Black. I bought a $50 heavy tumbler, some silicone ice trays, and I was all set. But eventually I noticed a problem: I could drink four or five doubles without thinking too much about it.… — read more

  • The Five Solas

    I’ve spent the last few months… learning what I believe. Yes, I know that sounds strange. I was raised in a Christian household. And taught the Bible from a young age. But even a year ago, I couldn’t have clearly explained what Christians believe about salvation. I have wandered my way into Reformed theology. Just… — read more

  • The Prodigal Father

    I’ve been studying the parable of the prodigal son. When my mom passed a little over a year ago, I started investing in Bible study modules for the Bible study software I use. I used part of the money we received from her, and eventually spent roughly $11,500 on various reference works. However, I actually… — read more

  • On the road

    Well. We did it. My wife retired in late January. We moved out of our house and into our RV in mid-March. At that point, the estate sale people took over and sold everything in the house. Then on April 1st, I retired. We put the house on the market. And a couple weeks later,… — read more

  • A real dog

    When my wife and I got married almost 14 years ago… she had a “chi-weenie”. A dog that was a mixture of a Chihuahua and a Dachshund. Then soon after that, she rescued a dog that was a mixture of a Chihuahua and a Shih Tzu. These were both very small dogs. When we moved… — read more

  • 2025 Last Year’s Improvements

    People are currently thinking of 2025 new year’s resolutions. Instead of doing that, I want to look back at some things I did in 2024. None of them were new year’s resolutions. While this is not in the area of personal improvement… I did trade my newish Mazda CX-5 in on a brand new motorhome… — read more

  • One more thing

    Of course… most people who know me won’t be surprised that I have decided that one handheld wasn’t quite enough. I suppose it could have been. But I realized I really do want to stay engaged with the local ham community, such as it is. And for keeping tabs with the local community of course… — read more

  • The end of the messing around

    After some careful reflection… I decided to drastically scale back my involvement in the ham radio hobby. I literally got rid of every piece of equipment except for my Kenwood TH-D75A, an Allstar node, and an openSPOT4 Pro. I sold most of my bigger items. And gave away what no one seemed to want. With… — read more

  • Post-purge setup

    After my major purge of computer and ham radio gear… I added a few things. Granted these were things I didn’t need. I think I’m cursed with first wanting things I don’t need. Then later wanting to get rid of things I don’t need. At any rate. I added the following: Even after adding that… — read more

  • Major purge…

    I’ve been doing some serious house cleaning lately. This was partially in preparation to live in an RV in the not too distant future. First, I got rid of all my computers and traded in my 11-inch iPad Pro on a new 13-inch iPad Pro. This new 13-inch iPad Pro will be my main computing… — read more
