This morning I woke up and did not want to go to church.  Not because it is church but because it is a social event that I wasn’t really up to.  I almost talked myself out of going but I made myself go and I am glad I did.  You know, sometimes we get so [...]

This morning I got up to get ready to visit my father in law and noticed a wet spot on the ceiling in our den.  This is really troubling because we just spent $7000 last November to have three layers of shingles removed, redecked and new shingles.  We paid extra to get the expensive shingles [...]

This is taken on North West Expressway in Oklahoma City.  The Valliance Bank is in the foreground while the 50 Penn Place is in the distance on the left just behind the McDonald’s sign.  This was taken on a warm balmy day in May 2006. 

Taken next to the new downtown library in Oklahoma City.  This was around 8:00 pm just north of the Botanical gardens.  Looks like soon you will be able to drive under the walk way bridge going to the parking garage.  That should be interesting.

The second photo was taken at the Myriad Gardens in Oklahoma City on Christmas Eve. We had just finished a wonderful family dinner on Christmas Eve celebrating the birth of our savior Jesus. My son and I went out to take some photos of Christmas lights. I love the fact that here in Oklahoma City [...]

As some of you ham radio operators locally know I have been having Internet connection issues for some time.  You may know this because we run the Del City Amateur Radio Club’s repeaters with the IRLP linking system and they have been off and on.  Since the WIN System repeater in Oklahoma City shares my [...]
