I want to thank everyone who has contacted me asking, "is everything Ok"? It is true I have not blogged in over a month. Yet, I can report that all is well. The lack of blogging is nothing more than a determined effort to enjoy life. I have been spending less time in front of the PC and more time experiencing good things.
I have been making greater efforts to spend times with friends. Going for long walks. Reading books of of all kinds, from theology, science and general fiction. Prayer has also been a major focus. Summer is good and I have been enjoying the time.
On fathers day, we took a drive to Duluth. Both of us really need to get out of the city. We spent a little time at Duluth harbor. A tacenite vessel came into port.
As it was fathers day the Captain's family were on hand to welcome him home.
From the lake front we went on to a state park. While sitting in silence, listening to the breeze rustle tree branches, a young deer came out to feed.
Nature is far more entertaining than anything on television. In peace and silence we can sit back and watch a whole world most of us never encounter.
So for those of you who have been concerned about the silence...worry no more. Life is good. I hope to blog more in the days to come, stay tuned.
good to hear you are doing well.

Glad you are enjoying time with family. I am praying it "restores your soul" as you lie down in green pastures. Looking forward to your return to the blogosphere my friend.
Blessings!
John
