Can You Believe These is this week’s Mystery Question, and you can thank Tim Johnson for sending them to me. 🙂 But first the photo and verse. I took the photo when I went to Dayton, Tennessee on my research trip. While these aren’t quite the Smoky Mountains, they have that “smoky” look. They are a part of the Appalachian …
MEMORIAL DAY 2023
Memorial Day 2023. I get goosebumps every time I see this photo. I also remember my trip to D.C. and the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. Seeing those soldiers keeping watch over that tomb is such an awe-inspiring moment. If you’ve never been and get the opportunity, be sure to go by there. Today is about remembering those who gave …
Vengeance in the Mist ~ Reader Friday
Vengeance in the Mist by Robin Patchen is this week’s Reader Friday. Here’s the first line: Two breaking-and-entering cases, two assaults, one bribery, and a couple of narcotics possession charges. Misty Lake flipped through the last few files. But first the photo and verse. I took the picture when I put out food for the stray cats in the neighborhood. …
Three Really Dumb Criminals ~ Mystery Question
Three Really Dumb Criminals is this week’s Mystery Question. But first the photo and verse. Priscilla Bettis took this beautiful photo of Jupiter and the moon at five o’clock in the morning and was kind enough to allow me to post it here. I’ve long loved the Scripture I added to it! And now for last week’s Mystery Question–Three Really …
Counter Attack ~ Reader Friday
Counter Attack is this week’s Reader Friday. I know, you’ve been hearing me talk about the book that was released this week fo-eva but Counter Attack released this week!!

Really Incompetent Criminals ~ Mystery Question
Really Incompetent Criminals is this week’s Mystery Question. Just when I think criminals can’t get any dumber, I find more. But first this week’s photo and Scripture. I wish I could say I took this one, but my friend Connie Jennings captured this beautiful pastoral scene! Doesn’t it make you just want to crawl inside it and take off on …
Deep Fake Double Down ~ Reader Friday
Deep Fake Double Down by Debbie Burke is this week’s Reader Friday. I don’t normally review general market books, but this is one that really opened my eyes to something that could affect us all. Here’s the first line: Monroe Old Child always wondered if his father knew that Monroe would be born seven months after his death. But first …
I Mean Really? ~ Mystery Question
I Mean Really? is this week’s Mystery Question. I cannot believe how dumb some of these crooks are! It is so hard to make up one to match! But first the photo and verse. I know, these aren’t lilies(they aren’t even close relatives), but they are my Amaryllises and I wanted to show them to you. 🙂 This is a …
Quick And Dead ~ Reader Friday

Dumbest Criminals Ever ~ Mystery Question
Dumbest Criminals Ever is this week’s Mystery Question. I really have a hard time believing people can be this dumb… But first the photo and verse. This is another of those photos where timing is everything. Again, I took it on my way to water aerobics…this was about a month ago. Just minutes before, the sky looked nothing like this, …
