Surely A Dry Summer
As we move into the Fall season we do so after a very dry summer. Temperatures have routinely pushed back to the 70's most days now with nighttime generally in the 50's. I am sure you can notice the difference. The most important weather event though is our noticeable lack of rain. Some of those…

Under A Mutant Sun
Exploring the intersection of sacred and secular. Growing up, I dreamed of being powerful — not the political power, or even power over others, but powerful in my own right. Of course Superman’s power was alluring, but what I needed was healing. Hello, Fellow Humans For those of you madly looking for a…
