Review: Palermo Restaurant
Palermo has been around for forever in my hometown. I never think about it when it comes to Italian food, even though I have been there 3 times prior. It is a family-owned restaurant that clams to make Italian food from scratch. Let’s get to the review! Blogger Note: on this trip we were in…

I told my girl that I wanted a burger and a beer. I’m not much of a drinker but it just sounded good. We hopped in the car and drove for about 20 minutes to somewhere I’d never been before. We parked next to a McDonald’s—not a good omen—and then went for a walk. We…

This past weekend, we celebrated Christmas. It was the most enjoyable one I can recall in many years. My weekend started Friday afternoon by getting sent home early from work. This year it was two o’clock. This is the earliest that I can recall being dismissed. Of course the drive home was a cakewalk. I…

Normally I don’t get so personal on this blog but this time of the year, isn’t that—at least in part—what Christmas is about; preparing for Christ and what He is doing in your life? This last month or so I have been experiencing many changes in my life. First two friends have died rather unexpectedly.…
