Spring break has arrived on the campus of Grace College and already it is a veritable ghost town. Everyone is off for a time of relaxation and refreshment in the warm sun and on the sandy beaches… or so that is what those of us who stay behind in grey Indiana would like to imagine…

Hmmm. Either I am the victim of a practical joke or I am being subjected to the evil workings of an industrious squirrel. More moss in the grille tonight.

Ok, I was going to light the grille for my evening grilled chicken, and when I opened the cover, the grille was full of moss. I have no idea how it got in there since I just used it the other night. Weird stuff.

A day of reflection and time alone with God has left me in a thoughtful state of mind. When I get a chance to shut everything off and be by myself with God [in my car as it was freezing outside today] I find myself inevitably drawn to water. The lake was very choppy today…
