When my two oldest children were 5 and 2, we moved from one house in town to another. We didn’t gain any square footage, but the new house had a huge yard, front and back, and forty trees in a better neighborhood. The house had been vacant for months. The sprinklers weren’t working in the… Continue reading The Sprinkler Man and the Glass Coffee Table

I used to be a tenor with Mary, so we would cook up an idea and tell the fifteen or so guys, and they would do whatever… Continue reading Altos’ Angels
