  • Chapter Two

    Dave and I just rang in the New Year this year in tradition with a trip to Charleston with friends.  It’s nice to have tradition to look forward to each year.  To gather and be with people.  To celebrate the passing of a year and reflecting on it and ringing in the new year.  This year was…

  • Merry Christmas From The Rhodes

  • Broken Down Car

  • Thankful for the act of Love, the act of Giving

    The Holiday Season always comes down to one thing for me.  Giving.  I mean isn’t that what life is all about?  And especially as we move this week towards celebrating Thanksgiving and then Christmas?  Even times of being Thankful, I often think about all the ways others have given and invested in me.  At the…

    Remember I mentioned seeing and briefly talking with a man in the airport on our way home that was bringing his son home?  Just read a blog I follow that linked to them here… saying how happy that  there was good news and their son was finally home…  When I clicked on the link and realized it…

  • What on earth is taking so long?
