I live with my wife Terry and Tasha, our beagle-border terrier mix, in Hemet, which is in the San Jacinto Valley, on the eastern edge of Southern California's Inland Empire. I am actively working on developing a freelance writing and web content business. Details are on my web site:http://mikecwebandwriting.com/.
This blog is about the personal side of my life. I love my Kindle iPad app, cooking, watching cooking shows on television, and writing this blog. I am an Episcopalian and am happy to be a member of Episcopal Church of the Good Shepherd here in Hemet.
I hope you'll stop by here now and again.

To this Southerner it is definitely sacred. Oh, I didn’t say it much but my aunts and others did. “I’ll see you again soon if the Lord be willin’ and the creek don’t rise.” Brings back lots of dear voices.
I hadn’t made that connection. As we discussed several years ago, I have been known to say “I’ll be there, the Good Lord willing and the creek don’t rise.” Stay warm and dry up there as we add to the much-needed snowpack.
