Fiat Lux: Day 4 - "I think we are in Kansas"

Day 4 - "I think we are in Kansas"

SOMEWHERE ON I-70 -- We are stopped at the biggest, most full-service reststop I have ever seen, just across the state line in Kansas headed east on I-70. This rest stop has internet connections, free coffee, maps, artwork for sale, books, oh, and bathrooms.

We are sailing across the gentle-rolling prairie, lush with sunflowers and silos. Tonight's destination, 645 miles from our starting point this morning in Colorado, is Overland Park, Kansas, and our friends Jim and Gail Greenwell. Gail is a seminary classmate and is the brand new rector of a large church in Mission, Ks. More about that in another post.

I will post photos later tonight. Blessings and safe travels to all...

A word on words...

It is my hope that this blog will be a place of dialogue and conversation. But please consider that you are a guest in someone's home (mine). Angry yelling may work for talk-radio, but it doesn't work here. Take your anger elsewhere. Present your point of view respectfully, and be open to others having a different point of view. Be respectful. Have a conversation. Take a deep breath before you hit the "submit" button.

And, I shouldn't have to spell this out, but I will:

1- Comments that are hateful toward any individual or groups will be removed. Period.

2- Comments that promote a commercial product will also be removed.

3- Keep it tasteful; use common sense and watch your language (this is a church blog).

4- I will not be drawn into arguments with anyone leaving an anonymous posting. You can leave an opinion anonymously, and if it is respectful, I will leave it stand. But do not expect a response from me. Conversation requires both parties introducing themselves. You know who I am, so have the courage of your convictions and stand by your comment with your name. Then we'll talk.

The name of this blog is Fiat Lux -- "Let There Be Light." So, please, shed light, not heat.
