Cindy and I recently had the blessing of going on a cruise in a warm climate.  I was amazed at how quickly I forgot it was February in Indiana.  Even though the Indiana Ministries staff sent me a couple of pictures of cold, dreary, winter weather, it felt as though the whole world was 80 and sunny.  And yes, I sent them a few pictures too. :)

 

It wasn't long after boarding the cruise ship that I discovered there were at least two groups on the cruise with us:

  • A group of about 100 male homosexuals, all of who had facial hair.
