I am just now getting back up to speed with my blog posts and as I was performing some research for another article, I came across some more startling news from the big-box greed of Wal-Mart. It appears that the corporate executives at Wal-Mart are among those stalwart groups of money-grubbers that would have our hallowed ground that was stained with the blood and bravery of fallen heroes to be trampelled upon for pure economic gain.
Please join me and thousands of other like-minded lovers of the United States of America in opposing the construction of a 138,000 square-foot store upon Wilderness Battlefield!!

My fellow readers, I must admit that July has been a rather dismal month for keeping you informed and entertained. However, the reasons have been many and in fact have been a true blessing to me and my family.
Saturday evening, my wife and I returned from a much desired and well deserved vacation in the mountains of Ruidoso, New Mexico.
We set cell phones and computers aside, loaded clothes, food and a tent on our backs and headed up Turkey canyon for a week of backcountry adventure. We shared a wonderful time together reconnecting and experiencing the beauty of God’s tremendous creation. There are many stories for me to tell about our experiences and I hope to share them with you over the next few weeks.

Rachele and I thank you for your patience with us as God allowed us to spend our third anniversary together in peace and contentedness. Not to mention a much cooler climate than the one we left behind in Austin. The 80 degree days and 50 degree nights were hard to leave, but we have indeed returned from on high.
It is going to take some time getting back up to speed with my writing, but please stay tuned and I will do my best to reward your diligence towards Uncommon History.
