We thoroughly enjoyed seeing these baby Horned Owls huddled together against the wind. The couple who own the property have a webcam hooked up to their TV and invited us in to see the owlets.
We also drove down Joe Overstreet Road near Kenansville and saw Bald Eagle, Tri-colored Heron, and more, but we were looking for Whooping Cranes. We found them after turning north on Canoe Creek Road. Continue reading Baby Owls
You are probably aware of the pre-game uproar about the two Super Bowl ads featuring Tim Tebow, University of Florida’s quarterback, and his mother, Pam. After watching these two commercials, I felt many would enjoy and appreciate them and the naysayers were pre-judging the content. If you have ten minutes, you would probably be very interested in the back-story for the Tebow family at Focus on the Family. Click on The Tebow Story for a video interview with Tim Tebow’s parents as they reveal God’s hand on Tim’s life even before he was conceived. I could not help but think … Continue reading Tim Tebow

Jenn and her friend, Ezra, were “news anchors.” Here’s another screenshot from their video of Jenn interviewing Ezra, also playing a “Benedictine monk”, on proving the existence of God.

Tonight, the University of Florida Gators will play in the Sugar Bowl against undefeated Cincinnati. As he does in every game, Gators quarterback, Tim Tebow, will have a different Bible verse written on his eye black. I read recently that when Tim wore John 3:16 under his eyes last season, Google recorded 93 million hits that day! So, I decided to check Google Trends for a handful of this season’s games and found that the verses I checked were number one for Google searches on game days. . . and not just number one, but “volcanic,” indicating a high volume. … Continue reading Reaching Millions with Bible Verses… and a Dedicated Life
If you like college football, you might enjoy reading about University of Florida’s quarterback, Tim Tebow, and his brother. Peter Tebow is also at the University of Florida, but as a staff intern of Campus Crusade for Christ. We have enjoyed following Tim Tebow’s college career and the influence he has had as a dedicated follower of Christ. Naturally, we were very interested in learning about Peter Tebow and his influence on others’ lives as well. Two articles and photos about Peter Tebow are available here: • from Campus Crusade’s web site, with a photo of the Tebow family • … Continue reading Two Tebows
Mike and Sus had an opportunity to go to Busch Gardens for a day. We wanted to see their Christmas shows and their decorations. We were not disappointed. We enjoyed a very good Gospel-style Christmas concert and a great ice skating show. Both shows were very well done. For dinner we also recommend the Zambia Smokehouse in Stanleyville. We were able to share a meal because of the portion sizes and the food was delicious! At the end of the day, the lighting was fantastic… a photographer’s delight! We were really pleased with our photos and have posted several animal … Continue reading Busch Gardens in Tampa
