“Stories have to be told or they die,  and when they die, we can’t remember who we are or why we’re here. ” Sue Monk – The Secret Life of Bees. . .

. . . this is a place to tell my stories and those of my family, and perhaps, from time to time, some others as well. To help us remember who we are and why we’re here.  Admittedly the stories are from my perspective – it is quite possible that another character  or an objective  observer might tell it from a very different point of view.  And so you are welcome to leave your version in the comments section 🙂

I married my childhood sweetheart, have six kids and twelve grandkids. I am a lover of stories, a lover of the sea and a lover of Jesus. I was born in Nebraska, grew up in Colorado and have slowly been making my way east. I now live in Maryland and spend as much time as I can at the beach – though it is never enough.
