Buffalo River – March 2019 -Centerpoint Trail
I always love a trip to the Buffalo National River located in North Central Arkansas just south of Harrison. It is a real outdoor jewel in our area and so thankful for all the hard and deliberate work that went in to keep this River from being dammed up decades ago. There are several different …

Time to Experiment and Explore
I took the opportunity the past few weekends to experiment with a few new patterns and fish a few sections of water I haven’t fished in a long time.

God Is Love!
I thought I knew what love was, is and does, but I found out that I don't fully understand, appreciate, or have experienced God's full love, that agape love. There is so much more to learn and explore and experience and feel and teach and live than I ever imagined is possible. God's love is just …
Zion National Park Nov 2015
This is one of the best National Parks I have ever been to. The beauty was just breathtaking. The enormity unbelievable and indescribable. The colors so vibrant and warm. I could not believe all this park had to offer. We stayed in the town of Springdale which is basically right in the middle of …
Picket Post Mountain, Nov 2015
