Luckily, this blog is buttressed by a better bevy of bloggers, linked to the right. I refer you to them whilst I await a good word.

WINTERSTORM BLASTS SW OHIO

Okay, for allyall who are feeling jaded by the failed forecast of this latest round of non-existant severe winter weather for SW Ohio, here's a lil bit of mea culpa from the National Weather Service office in Wilmington, Ohio on the Forecast Discussion section this morning regarding the forecast for Wednesday-Thursday.....

THE SCENARIO THIS COMING WED/THURS WITH THE LOW IN THE GTLKS STANDS
A LOT OF ROOM FOR ERROR. CONFIDENCE IS LOW FOR THIS FCST PERIOD AND
GENERAL TREND WAS TO KEEP PREVIOUS FCST WITH MINOR TWEAKS. WITH THE
WAY MODELS CAUGHT (OR DIDN'T) LAST NIGHTS SYSTEM...FEEL THAT
EINSTEINING THE EXTENDED IS BEYOND CURRENT CAPABILITIES.

Had a refreshing time at the Hut that is Pizza with tha Jaylord today. Not only is he a great friend....a compadre......he is a brother on this journey and that makes this all worthwhile.

Well, the stated law of God dictates we feast at the holy Mocha de la Joe's for our meetings but I have pronounced that wretched place an anathema, until such time that they begin to seat me in a timely manner, stop coming back to you after you order and tell you "we ran out of that today" three times and stop having to tell their customers, "I'm sorry, but......." It's a shame.....it has such great potential. The J'lard warned me eons ago but like a watchful momma for her wayward son, I held out hope.

Though you can't see it, 3 of the entrances to the 55th longest cave in the United States is in the center of the picture. We will be going in one of them in less than seven hours from this post. We will not, however, traverse the total 11.5+ miles of mapped passageway in Wells Cave down in central Kaintuckee. By jove, we'll not be stopped trying tho. Wish you could come.

Oh, and by the way, Zach brought his family up from Tennessee to visit. This is him playing "preacher" earlier tonight. I wonder what God might be up to.

While at my mother-in-law's, I was wading through several toddler-nephews just to get to my room after a shower. Two of my nephews were on the way down the stairs to the basement, obviously in a game of make-believe. I think they were playing "heaven," or "God" or something. Zach, the eldest and standing at the top of the stairway, was God (it appeared) and the youngest nephew was the human at the bottom of the stairs on earth. As I turned into my room, I heard God-Zach reassure his lowly human creation below, "Hold on.....I'm coming down to you!!!"

Somehow, somewhere, he got it.

Why do we have to be invaded with the Divine Presence when to them, it flows effortlessly? Where did we lose that?
