Well home school kids are a bit “different”


Yes, a few in an odd way, most in a good way.

Our daughter is doing just fine as a "different" homeschool grad. 2 undergrad degrees from LSU followed by a PhD and now waiting on child #3.
Had a decent pizza in Coldwater a few weeks ago. Comanche County is the location of our family farm, near Wilmore.

No you can't hunt on our land. Go ride the Wilmore Carousel instead, ok?

What a great car. Was it an XL?

Not too shabby!


I think the XL was the 427. No, his car had the 352, or was it 351?

Hint: a catechism is not the same as the Bible. Nor does it completely agree with the scriptures
In response to the OP, your doctrine needs subtlety.

God is sovereign in the macro sense, ie, He has declared the end from the beginning. Much, if not most, of what happens between the beginning and the end is manifestly not God's will and the Bible affirms this. There is a great battle raging between good and evil in spiritual realm and upon earth.

Those who love and fear the Lord must be engaged in this battle.
My cousin had a fine dining restaurant in Victor. They had some goats there and made French cheese from their milk in the shack next door. Alas, the restaurant closed, so he opened a little joint in the shack next door. Called it Grumpy's Goat Shack. Dogs, tacos beer, etc. Bras and panties stapled to the ceiling. Mike closed it and retired a few years ago.
Incidentally, the house next door is for rent. $2350/mo for 2000 sqft okay house on a little lake. Seems low.
It's Taj Mahal. So I'll guess the movie is Sounder.

Brushy Creek Ranch near Gloster MS does this. Not sure, but you can also try the Just Ride camp on the other side of the Homochitto Nat'l forest.

That part of the Homochitto is dedicated to trail riding.
I married my late wife when she was 33, never-married, no kids. We had 37 glorious years.

Just marry "the one" and forget about all the metrics.
Don't know, don't care.

Debt free and will never borrow again.
She's 5'10", which is pretty tall for 66 y/o. But I'm 6'0". She admits she couldn't have settled for a guy shorter than her.

I did, after my first wonderful wife passed away.

Second one is, if anything, even more wonderful. Never have I had so much fun.
Meeeee. "Til death us do part."

Accent on death.

My amazing paternal grandpa (flew in France in WW1) lost his wife to the C got her, before I was born.

My mom and dad were headed for divorce but circumvented that by suicide. Til death....

First wife passed away. Til death...

Current wife...we are in for the long game.
Grew up hearing it. My dad was a Wagner fanatic. He took lessons from our ex-pat German neighbor who spoke the same dialect as Wagner. All so he could follow the libretto on the original.

He took me to the SF Opera for a performance of some part of the ring when I was a kid. Ruined me for Opera for many years.

Should have broken me in on Puccini
