14 days in a row of below normal temperatures in the 70s late in the afternoon and in the 50s early in the morning - that’s what we enjoyed here in Homestead from the 16TH through the 29TH of November. It all came to a screeching halt today as it felt more like tropical summertime rather than [...]

It’s a warm, windy, and muggy final Sunday morning of November here in Homestead, and we are the church that meets at the movie theatre in the heart of the city. Catch one of our three services every Sunday morning. They start promptly with ‘Praise & Worship’ as we all sing to Him at 8:30, [...]

I’m back home in Homestead. I landed at FLL a good 30 minutes ahead of schedule, and I took the Miami GO GO Turnpike straight to Homestead. Now I’m relaxing and getting ready for a big day ahead at Life Pointe Church. I can’t wait to see everyone bright and early tomorrow morning. It’ll sort [...]

The Major’s Walk-A-Thon
Posted in Animals, Health, Travel, Weather on 11/27/2008 | Leave a Comment »
Sky: Mostly Sunny
Temperature: 66°F
Dewpoint: 37°F
Relative Humidity: 34%
Winds: Calm
Barometric Pressure: 30.02 Falling
1. This was my first classic ‘walk-around-the-neighbourhood’ outside of my own neighbourhood.
2. It wasn’t the coldest, but it was certainly the dryest ‘Walk-A-Thon’ ever with a desert-like relative humidity and a dewpoint just a few degrees above the freezing mark. That rarely occurs in South [...]

HAPPY THANKSGIVING my friends. May you all sit down today with your loved ones to a MASSIVE dinner with all of the trimmings. Just keep in mind the thankful reason for the joyous season.
Back to the NFL season we go, and last weekend was rather pathetic for me as I went a mere .500 for the first [...]

The Major’s Miniature Golf-A-Thon
Posted in Sports on 11/25/2008 | 1 Comment »
That’s the actual score card from this afternoon’s much-anticipated match-up between me and my brother (‘Bunky’). We determined and agreed that this was his best game in the entire 15-year history of us playing miniature golf together. He shot 3-over-par for a total of 39 points, and that included an unbelievable record-shattering six holes-in-one ! I [...]
Tuesday Night Grab Bag O’ Thoughts
Posted in Food, Health, History, Travel on 11/25/2008 | 2 Comments »
If it’s Tuesday night then you just know what I’m up to – no matter where in the world I may be located at:
1. I don’t have a cold yet. My 9TH cold in 13 months has not yet materialized. Give it a few days. It’ll make its presence known. I guarantee it. North Texas [...]

I’ve never done it, but if I did it I would drive through 5 U.S. states to get from South Florida (south of Miami) to North Texas (north of Dallas). It would be over 1,400 miles of Interstate highway shenanigans. Maybe some year I’ll do it. But for now I’ll just blog about doing it [...]

Hopefully at least 1 of these [...]
Saturday Night Retro

TODAY I flew on an airplane from Fort-Lauderdale/Hollywood International Airport to Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport. It was the umpteenth time that I flew anywhere. (I actually don’t keep track of all of my airline flights via an EXCEL spreadsheet.) I’ve lost track of my flying over the past 23½ years. I’ve flown first class once [...]
