Today’s find: Sport-circuited
I got a jolt when I opened up the Sports section of the local rag the other day.

Today’s find: Done deal
Word came yesterday that there’s a signed contract to sell Mom’s house. A few contingencies still to be met, sure: But it appears this deal is just about done…putting the wraps on the search for a buyer that began well over a year ago.
The news wasn’t entirely good in my estimation.

At the very least, it’s seen a LOT of days…
Today’s find: Crowd-sourced sanctity

Today’s find: Going for it
Standing over the shot last Saturday afternoon, I think I was feeling a little like Peter must have felt when Jesus told him to step out of the boat.
