So, Rip and I went to one of our “happy places” (Lowes), and bought a “heavy-duty-not-playing-around-Lisa’s-new-toy” pressure washer!  YES!

Get Organized – Part 3

I got to work this morning, picked up my Dr. David Jeremiah’s devotional book and read: The family is God’s idea. In fact, it’s His primary idea. Civil government and the church also came from the mind of God; but long before He created those institutions, God thought of the…
