Yes, it has been hard to believe that Sean left home to get started in his new position, yet anticipated the day when he could move his beautiful wife Marie and their youngest daughter Amanda to Spokane to join him. Sadly, that wouldn't be for several months,...

Submitted to Contest #74

If hindsight is truly 20/20, then someone needs to adjust their vision, as this year truly wasn't one I would have wanted to see in my life (especially with new glasses.) There were positives, there were negatives. There was joy, there was heartbreak. Most of all, God was still on His throne -- guiding, directing, and protecting through this year of blessings, trials, and tribulations. With that said, let's review my "Top 10 of 2020."#1 -- GRANDBABY #6 BEFORE CHRISTMAS: Being a grandparent is truly a joy, as our oldest daughter and her husba...

December 19, 2020, was fast approaching. Isaac and Jacqline were busy with their first holiday party -- grocery shopping, libations for the homemade bar consisting of 2 large wine barrels and a huge polished granite countertop layed across, decorations, and ensuring the necessary sanitization measures were taken into account, as our story finds us in the middle of an advanced pandemic, one the likes no one saw coming in 2020."Isaac, did you remember to order some additional masks, just in case some guests don't bring one?"

“ THE INDECISIVE DECISION OF NOT BUYING AN RV” by Kevin Rigney

Submitted to Contest #70

It was a dark, warm, and starry night in the skies over the suburbs of San Francisco, California, as is uncommon for the majority of a calendar year, as 2020 was quite uncommon in itself. You see, our story finds us in a pandemic, a plague of sorts, that no one saw coming, yet our lives, along with the weather pattern, changed us into homebodies who left the house only for certain needs.
