Where do you want to go? What do you care about? Answer these questions and enjoy the planned and unplanned journeys that life brings!
Today, I bury the last of the "Greatest Generation" Baker's, my Uncle John. Tomorrow I point my rental car towards the Rocky Mountains and unknown vistas. Saturday, I play my guitar and sing at Mass.
