A Review of “The Shack”—If you haven’t heard of this book yet, you soon will. My copy is in the mail, but in the mean time, check out why you don’t want to be caught in the shack.

I’ve experimented with High Dynamic Range (HDR) photography for a while now, but I finally have a good before and after example to share. HDR basically yields an image with a higher exposure range than a traditional image or even our eyes are capable of capturing. Here’s what it looks like—visit the site see them larger.
What you’re looking at is about six images at different exposures merged together. The result is better exposure and detail in the lightest-lights and darkest-darks of the image. Which one do you like better?
The weather was perfect for enjoying some hot air balloons today.
This was the only cloud in the sky, but it kept the sun from blinding us for the entire evening.
Just stuck in traffic with everyone fleeing the hurricane. Tried to leave before too much traffic.
How do they keep coming up with things that make you want to buy new one—that’s what’s crazy. Andrea while looking at the new Nano
“…when this son of yours came, who has devoured your wealth with prostitutes, you killed the fattened calf for him.” Luke 15:30
What a statement! I’ve always focused on the older son when he’s on the scene, but his words reveal an incredible perspective on the Father.
It’s been a long two years of grocery shopping, but today we finally got to experience the Market Street United again, and while it was one of the busiest grocery stores I’ve been in, it was still great to be back in a United.
I found these on my computer from when we first got married. We saw this same scene several times around town. I guess if you don’t have a trailer, just load ‘em up.
We spent last night with my brother and his wife enjoying some Alfredo Pizza, Queso, and a little lighting experiment. I love what it did to the hair.
I’ve just picked my next race, and now it’s time to start up the training again. Here’s a shot of my training schedule just in case any of you want to join me in Dallas. RunTheRock.com

PhotoSynth Imagine being able to share the places and things you love using the cinematic quality of a movie, the control of a video game, and the mind-blowing detail of the real world. With nothing more than a bunch of photos, Photosynth creates an amazing new experience.
If you haven’t heard yet, I now have the latest and greatest iPhone. I just loaded the WordPress app, and now I’ll be blogging while I’m out and about. Hopefully you’ll be seeing more frequent updates. Stay tuned.
The primary purpose of reason is to help us discover what is true. The primary tool of reason is argument. An argument is a specific kind of thing. Think of it like a simple house, Read More
But you could’ve run it faster than that, right?
Evan T—after hearing my Half Marathon time
Here are a few shots from the race.
This first picture shows how dense the roads were. With over 30,000 runners, the roads really didn’t clear up the entire time.
I did it! I survived and finished the Country Music Half Marathon. It was an exhilarating experience that was definitely worth the effort. I’ve been training for this 13.1 mile race every since I set the goal back in January.
Here are a few of the details of what it took to cross the finish line.
That’s about it. For those of you I couldn’t talk into running the race with me, that’s what you missed out on—plus the experience.
My official race time was 1 hour, 53 minutes, and 39 seconds.

Well it looks like someone actually likes the simplicity of my site’s design enough to try it out for themselves. Although I don’t plan to release this design as a theme, I don’t mind sharing what I’ve done. Edwin was even nice enough to contribute to a new book I bought today, Boundaries. Thanks Edwin, and enjoy the new look!
