Campton Hills Newsletter asks for volunteers to work as a Village Historian to document the history of the village.  Hopefully, there will be the time that it was created and the short and few months that it existed before it was dissolved.  Well most people know that 9 subdivisions have been gra...

Well, I finally hit it.  I was going to make this a spectacular post and reminisce about how great it is to hit 100,000 points in just under 9 months.  I was going to talk about all of the great friendships as well as some young and growing relations that I've made on AR, Ginger's Marin County Re...

 1 “Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me. 2 In My Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also. 4 And where I go you know, and the way you know.”
(John 14:1-4, New King James Version) I review for BookSneeze
