Looks like I’ve fallen a might behind. I’m in the process of helping Jesse put together a slideshow of pictures from Honduras. He has told me many a tale from his mission trip, but my favorite will always be about how he earned the credentials to be a first ballot… Read More »Jesse Goes to Honduras
As I have slowly been going through some stuff, I came across some art from a couple of my friends that was buried by time. I’m glad I found this stuff. You might look at this stuff and wonder if I was hanging around a mad scientist like Dr. Trahan… Read More »Resurfaced
