Remember back this past Sunday. There were many posts on social media about the fact that there would be a time change, a full moon, and a Friday the 13th? Well, they left one out. They left out this little thing called a PANDEMIC. We are seeing constant updates to the point that we are […]
The date was July 6, 2019. Melissa and I had been venturing out farther and farther from home on the bike and enjoying the experience more and more. By this point, we had gotten into a groove of riding together and I was feeling more confident riding 2-up on the Honda VTX 1300. I only […]
Every year, beginning in February, an activity commences that as far as I know, happens nowhere on the planet, other than the North American South. What’s the activity you ask?

This blog stuff, as totally lame as it may seem to some of you, has been a great deal of fun for me. You will probably never know the hesitation I experienced before hitting the enter key to publish my own words for the first time. I think many of you know that I post […]

I tend to get a bit wordy in my posts here, which I realize goes against the norms of the day and time in which we live. Except for certain circumstances, everything I put to text will be in sentence form, with at least an attempt to make it grammatically correct, and free of abbreviations. […]
Here in South Mississippi, the talk for the last few days has been the river. The “river,” for those who don’t know what I’m talking about, is the Pearl River. The river gets its start in central Mississippi and flows through the capital city of Jackson and meanders southward where it becomes the border between […]
I think all of us dads out there often worry that we aren’t able to be that “everything” in the eyes of our children. Work and the day-to-day grind rob us of time and then there is often guilt associated when we go out and do guy things that don’t include them, like a favorite […]
