I'm back, true to my word. But of exceeding more earth shaking life-changing eternal significance, Jesus kept His Word! He's alive! Praise Him!

A Salad Shout Out and a Promise to Return!
Hey folks! It's an absolutely beautiful day here in northeast Louisiana, after a stormy night. I hope you're well in your corner of the world.
