According to the MLB app, James Paxton didn’t exist in 2024. I’ll check back on Lauer in a couple years.

Is it weird that I miss this?

Can someone please fix search engines? Don’t ask DuckDuckGo about the kind of ball used in the Steph Curry’s movie GOAT.

When your dog doesn’t want you to move.

Can someone at Nike turn this classic into a baseball jersey?

He's the worst. Now I don't want to purchase an annual pass in 2026

Sometimes you just need to climb up a mountain. Thank God California has plenty to choose from. #MtLassen #LassenVolcanicNationalPark #SaveOurNationalParks #California

My #geocaching destination yesterday.

I think I found my future obituary photo!

The perfect way to spend the day off. A hike to a quiet Alpine lake and a good book. Life and Art by Richard Russo is a thoughtful read that I’d highly recommend. #BlueskyReads #BookSky #SummerReading

A Methodist pastor and Catholic priest go on a hike. That’s it. That’s the story. #ecumenism #CaliforniaIsGod’sCountry

Just, you know, some light summer reading. #BookSky #HistoryLesson

I just finished Culture Care by @iamfujimura.bsky.social I’m not an artist, but found this book inspiring in so many ways. It’s the kind of book that will resonate for a long while. It reminds me that we need not just to care for our own souls, but for the soul of our culture.

Just a couple of pallete cleansing tulips.

I found a show at the local theatre I’ve been wanting to check out for a long time. So we saw Vanessa Collier tonight and she blew the roof off the joint! #GoodMusic #Blues #SupportTheArts #SupportLocalBusiness #HaveSomeFun

A book that will make you think, make you appreciate, will educate you, and may just move you into a new practice of care for nature. As someone who has always felt connected to the divine when immersed in nature, I found Karen Armstrong’s Sacred Nature resonating and also challenging.

I’m astounded how some people think this is not child endangerment but gender-affirming care is.

My wife and I went to Sacramento to join the Transgender Unity Rally. It was good to see people showing up to care for and support one another in these bleak times. #TransRights (Sorry for the terrible photo)

#Geocaching gives me an excuse to go down to the creek in January.

Anthony Miller is still playing?? I had no idea

Scooter Van Buren is a firm believer in the Sunday after church nap.

Sometimes you just have to make time to see the world’s largest artichoke. #SelfCare #RoadSideAttractions

A few years ago I sat in on a lecture by Anna Carter Florence. Man next me says her book completely changed his preaching. Well, I finally got around to reading Preaching as Testimony. It’s not a book about form or style, it’s about preaching as God empowers us to tell what we’ve seen and believed
