I have remained silent for a very long time as I attempt to put some sense into what is taking place in our country. It does not seem that we are moving forward. My life as I take pleasure in a new house, new garden, and other stuff is cool, but what is most disconcerting is the problems that confront the "America" I was raised to be a part of!
My new residence and the people that surround it are part and parcel of America's dilemma. How can a man and his wife with their three children and one in the oven(at least 6 months)work here and not be reported to immigration? None of them have a smattering of English, and yet here they are. I love people, always have, but there is a point at which we all have to say, "STOP IT" and stand to traditional values. God bless, Preacher.

About Me
- Preacher
- I set a record for duration of stay at my previous location, Brookings, SD. Nine years does not seem all that long. We aren't done moving in, there are still boxes in the barn that I haven't unpacked from the last four addresses. My strongest desire is to be off and running, hot and fast, in pursuit of the next vision to guide my life. I truly believe this old Bed & Breakfast that we are in the process of converting is the vision God has given us. Thinking about the suitcases out in the barn I know for certain there is one that has had stuff in it since '69 and it's ready to go today. It was not until just recently that I came to the realization that I've got to stop living like I won't be here six months from now. That is unproductive! I pray God gives me enough years to really get settled before adjourning to my permanent home. That one not made with human hands but prepared for me from the beginning. I enjoy telling folks that I'm really not ready to go home yet, but my bags are packed, and my ticket was bought and paid for 2000 years ago.
