I love it when a plan comes together – even if I’m on plan “D” when it happens. Plan “A” was to go to La Ceiba on Monday morning and go straight to the medical center downtown for an ultrasound to try to discover the source of my mystery pains. Then I would proceed on [...]

The Beautiful, the Bad, and the Bizarre
{ Comments on this entry are closed }
I know I’m dating myself here, but who remembers the old Clint Eastwood movie, The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly? I think we could make a movie about life here in Roatán called, The Beautiful, the Bad, and the Bizarre.
Last week was just a gorgeous week. I needed to go to Utila to take [...]
So Much to Thank Him For
{ Comments on this entry are closed }
The title for this blog entry is also the name of a very popular song here on Radio HRGS. It’s sung by a southern gospel group that, in my humble opinion, can’t carry a tune in a bucket. Don’t get me wrong – I like southern gospel, but these folks are not even close to [...]
Haulin’ Mud
{ Comments on this entry are closed }
I did some mud hauling this week – not in the truck – under it. I’ve been working for a while on a method of preventing dead air on the radio if something happens to our network or to our audio equipment. I’ve mentioned it before and said back on New Year’s Day that I [...]
Easier than Slamming a Revolving Door – But not by Much – Part 2
{ Comments on this entry are closed }
If you missed the first part of this story, just scroll down the page a little bit and part one will get you up to speed. Since there was so much to tell, I thought it better to break it into two installments. That was easier to write and probably easier to read as well. [...]
Random thoughts on the past week
{ Comments on this entry are closed }
Well, it looks like rainy season is here. After Ida passed by, it just kept on raining. So the island is green again, colors are muted and saturated at the same time, and the mosquitoes are as thick as … well, mosquitoes.
As I write this, Peter and Sandi’s Nissan Trooper is up on jack stands, [...]
And Then the Wheels Came Off
{ Comments on this entry are closed }
I’m sure you’ve heard the expression – probably had times that fit the expression. You’re working on a project and all is well, and then, suddenly, the wheels come off. That really happened yesterday. Let me explain.
Peter and Sandi are still up in the States on their furlough. While they are gone, they wanted to [...]
When I Stop to Think About It …
{ Comments on this entry are closed }
First, let’s pretend that today is Thursday. I had this all written up and ready to upload and then got called away, so I wasn’t able to finish it until Friday morning. It was a good distraction, but still kept me from getting this done. So we’ll just make believe I got it done and [...]
Normal is Exceptional … Or Is It the Other Way Around?
{ Comments on this entry are closed }
Have you ever had one of those weeks where nothing really noteworthy seems to have happened? I used to have them quite often. I guess that’s why we call them ordinary. But since coming here to Roatán, the ordinary week has become the unusual week. So you could call this an ordinary week or an [...]
Testing a new plug-in
{ Comments on this entry are closed }
Our son Jesse clued us in on a new plug-in for Wordpress that is a different way of displaying audio, video, and pictures. So, to test it out, I’ll share with you some pictures I took a few years ago at the Florida State Fair.
What a Great Day for Snorkeling!

This will need to be quick again. It’s already past supper time. We had a good morning at church today. They had asked me to preach, so I finished chapter one of the series I’m working on in Philippians. What a great book! Then we kind of all split up.
Travis and Emily Mitten are still [...]
Getting Ready …
{ Comments on this entry are closed }
This will need to be a quick update. We are busy preparing for big stuff coming up this week. We’re getting ready for the arrival of Travis and Emily Mitten with their four daughters. They plan to be here at HRGS for several years at least and we are eager for their arrival. They are [...]
