Angela, I'm a Catholic convert. The very first words I said to Stephanie ( my wife ) was, " I'm gonna pick this apart. "
That was ten years ago. Theres no holes in it. It's all there. It's complete. Katholokos in Greek. I couldn't find a flaw in it.

Flaws in how the Church conducted business. Sure. But the dogma is sound. I'm not leaving it.
In the words of Andrew Wouters , " Fornicator I was,heretic never. " That was just before he was hung among the Martyrs .
I'm not a member of The Church because of the Vatican, or a pope. Because its all there. Everything you need to gain is literally right there.
My friend, I've survived suicide attempts ( those defied logic) , a stroke that nobody can explain how I'm functional today , and a gut sepsis requiring a colostomy leaving me with nothing more than some really cool scars.
I pray my Rosary , I request prayers from my unseen friends ( the saints) , and confess my sins in accordance to scripture.
And I'm still learning.
Its hard to talk someone like Sheepdog. My Dad is a retired Baptist pastor. We don't talk theology. Dad's just glad I'm no longer faith apathetic.

Grouse live on the prairie and aren't fit to eat. Partridge live in the woods.

@Sharkhunter If you don't mind me asking, which region of the state are you in?

.... TO HAVE A GOOD DAY! Happy Tuesday, all. Everyone managing the cold well? We've experienced a brief chill, and Ohio's climate has been unpredictable. Temperatures have fluctuated between windchill in the negatives and expected highs in the 50's by Thursday. I'm eagerly awaiting the deer hunters to harvest a deer or considering roughing it on public land.



Enjoy this photo of me loading the wood burner, courtesy of my daughter's photography skills.

Who else has an outdoor wood burner? Definitely my favorite type of heat. Haven't had to pay for propane as of late.

With this thing, the app.......

I can turn the cam on and set the settings with just the app and then take the card out to get the pics instead of buying a plan and having them sent to a phone?
