Lewis and Clark Caverns
It is always neat to go down into caves to see a different and unique view of God’s creation. We enjoyed hanging around the visitors center before we were able to head out on the tour. Krista and I wondered around for a few minutes and took a few pictures. It was starting to get…

Runnin’ Thoughts
With my next half marathon less than two weeks away, I am off the wall excited. I will be running solo. No one else has registered to run the race purposely because I am running it, nor did I register because someone else is running it. I do know others that are running, but this…
