DANIEL DAVEY & JONESY
I heard a “story” once about two men hiking in a dense northern forest. Their backpacks were heavy and the small trail was rugged. Eventually they came to a tree that would be easy to climb, so one of the men took off his pack, climbed the tree to check the trail ahead and their…

LIFE’S HIGHWAY
Have you ever wondered how once in a great while, it seems like God sent a friend into your life and you didn’t even realize it was happening? Maybe that sounds a little strange to you, or it has never happened to you, but it has to me and I’m writing about it today! From…

LET’S NOT REINVENT THE WHEEL!
Somewhere around 1990, my company at the time made it’s first leap into the world of technology and bought its first computer. Those were different times, and it might be hard for some to even imagine, but at that time most small businesses did not have computers. So, it was somewhat normal when we had…

SURGERY Part 3
Like most men I tend to be a “doer” or a “fixer”. I try to fix a problem or make a situation better. But from the moment I was wheeled into that big hospital and was taken to what would be “my room” for the next 5 days…I had a calming peace with putting my…

SUDDENLY TRAPPED! part 2
In part 1, I said that I would reveal the 2 huge mistakes I made, so here they are. First, I neglected to release the tension on the chain from the tree to the tractor-it was still pulled tight! Then if you look all the way down the length of the tree, you can still…

SUDDENLY TRAPPED! part 1
“Keep me safe from the trap that has been set for me; shelter me from danger. I place myself in your care. You will save me, Lord; you are a faithful God.” Psalm 31:4-5 (GNT) January 7, 2025 started as any other day, my wife Ruth and I walked a couple of miles, we went…

SLOW DOWN AND WAIT
In 1963, my all-time favorite TV show, “The Andy Griffith Show”, aired an episode called: “Man in a Hurry”. The setting was that a man named “Mr. Tucker” from Raleigh, had his car brake down outside of Mayberry on a Sunday. Mr. Tucker walks into the deserted town of Mayberry – deserted because it’s Sunday…
