I hate the fact that the hot days of summer are over.  We're having a blast, but in the sunroom on our back porch, I have just done a great meal with my wife and her friends.  Now...it's time for me to put my young dude, Grant down for the night!  Sheer bliss.  Love the tan and the color that th...

 1 “Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me. 2 In My Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also. 4 And where I go you know, and the way you know.”
(John 14:1-4, New King James Version) I review for BookSneeze
