Here I raise my Ebenezer. Hither by Thy help I'm come.
And I hope by Thy good pleasure safely to arrive at home.
Jesus sought me when a stranger wandering from the fold of God.
He to rescue me from danger interposed his precious blood.

I am a son and a brother, a husband and a father.

I am a surgical tech by occupation, although I have two other degrees that I've never used for a job. I own a hundred-year-old house, so I am also a carpenter, electrician, plumber, HVAC tech, and general contractor at need.

I am an aspiring bookwright and have 16 other hobbies I hope to work on. Someday.

5

I love good stories, and I mostly find those in books.

6

I love nature, especially trees, and hiking is one of my favorite ways to relax.

7

I love music, but I am not a musical person (i.e. I don't play any instruments or understand any theory or know anything). It's just a part of my life I enjoy.

So, all of that is going to serve me as a guide to what I might write about here on this microblog. Thanks for checking it out.
