“Watch the Lamb” by Ray Boltz
Walking down the road to Jerusalem
The time had come to sacrifice again
My two small sons walked beside me on the road
The reason they’d come was to watch the lamb

Okay, I did the Colleen picture in colored pencil… which my scanner promptly screwed up.  So, with exasperation, I decided to do it in Photoshop.
I am not an expert in the software, nor do I claim to be.  But after an afternoon of working on it and having it turn out like this, I was [...]

It occurred to me not long after I published my last post that I completely forgot to tell you how district science fair went!  And since I know you’re all dying to find out how it went (har har), I’ll go ahead and tell you.

St. Patricks Day and 5,000 hits

Alright, sorry about the ridiculously long break here, but stuff got in the way.  Again.  The fact of the matter is, I’m going to West District Science Fair next week (levels are school>county>district>state>national), and this past week has been reeeeeeally not fun.  Sophomores had OGT’s, which meant most of my friends were AWOL for most of [...]
