Quiet life

1Thess 4:11 “that you also aspire to lead a quiet life, to mind your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you” (NKJV)

It hardly seems possible that the three week break for my son, Will, has already come and gone. It was a good time, but just too short.

We managed to get away for a few days to Gulf Shores, AL and enjoy the ocean time. Bruce & Will enjoyed a couple of days of golf, we did some shopping, and just enjoyed each others company, a real commodity since he's an Oklahoma Christian college man now. We slipped up to Kentucky for our niece, Maggie's bacc. last Sunday and no I'm not gonna try to spell it out:) We made good use of the grill and Will even mowed the yard a couple of times without complaint. He'll be out on the road soon with New Reign and I'm sure there will be adventures to tell.

Acappella's tour to the northwest will be wrapping up soon, with concerts in Yakima, WA and Grand Junction, CO; as well as an appearance at the Colorado Rockies June 5 game, to sing 'America the Beautiful.' Sweet!

Jasmine

Today another birthday in the making. The heady scent of jasmine and petunias is rich in the front courtyard. The birds are chirping like mad so the cats must be about. Today will be another hot one, ah, summer in Alabama.
