Those of you who’ve followed this blog for a while know that I’m not big on making political commentary. I’d rather stay out of it entirely, and if I could, I’d hide in a hole until all the elections were over. But that’s not the right thing to do: the right thing is to RESE

An Open Letter to Google:I have recently heard of your lobbying against Prop. 8 in CA. http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2008/09/our-position-on-californias-no-on-8.htmlI am unhappy to see heavy corporate lobbying, and funding, going into issues that families and voters can decide on their own...

I'm changing my "The Mountain Is..." sidebar feature to a Photo of the Week feature instead. I'm still walking - but it's a chore to download a mountain photo into the PC every day and get it popped in. So - when I get an amazing shot of Mt. Rainier, I'll still post it...

I'm posting this as a small tribute to a little girl who passed away in our stake this week to brain cancer. Mara Adams (NO relation to us - just family friends) was diagnosed about 11 months ago with a DIPG, or an inoperable glioma tumor on her brainstem. Monday Sept...

Hi everyone! It's gone pretty well taking the head count with 'anonymous' posters... so I'll leave that setting on for the time being, moderating comments on posts older than a few days. You can still comment and leave your count! I won't forget you. Promise...

All right folks, it's about time I took an informal survey to have some idea how many copies of "Zion Rising" (that'll be BOOK 3, those who are waiting!) I'll need to order. Since there's been a LONG wait, I'm willing to put out a First Edition on my own while I shop it to publishers. (Yes.....
