I'm in Atlanta with thousands of religion scholars. Yay....I think?
Here's a picture of the property I live on now--in the late 1930s.
Here's a similar view today.
Check out the growth of the tree in the upper left corner, among other things.

My blog seems to be getting boring. Facebook and Twitter are more fun, and I do a lot more there. So I changed my blog template, so you can at least have something new to look at. :)
God, you have given us enough to meet our needs
and those of our neighbors.

Anyway, now I'm the professor...strange!
