Who hasn’t watched the movie “Tombstone” or a western set in, or at the very least, mentioning Tombstone, Arizona? I can’t wait to visit Tombstone: the town that wouldn’t die. It still has a population of over 1300 people today! It was even the county seat of Cochise County in its heyday. Originally called Goose Flats, […]
I have always been fascinated by the story of Ira Hayes. If my wife would have let me I even wanted to name our firstborn Ira! I love studying the lives of interesting Arizona natives and Ira Hayes is one of my all time favorites. Ever since Johnny Cash sang a ballad about Ira Hayes […]
Often it seems like it doesn’t do any good to do something good and right, or to make a stand against the masses , especially if you are all alone in doing it. After all, what can one solitary person do to effect any real change in the world? There are many examples in history […]

Arizona has a lot of wild donkeys. One Arizona town even has dozens of wild donkeys out literally roaming their streets. We have personally seen wild donkeys up by Lake Pleasant just north of Phoenix. Having been raised in Illinois it is so cool to see wild donkeys just out running around wild and free! […]
I have been doing a Bible study with my brother in law, Alan, from Denver, on the book of Revelation and we just covered Christ’s letter to the church in Laodicea. In this letter Christ pictures Himself as standing outside the closed door of that church and knocking to get in. His message to the […]
Not all that long ago a serious problem we were told we faced was overpopulation. In 1968 “The Population Bomb” became a best-selling book written by Stanford University Professor Paul R. Ehrlich. It predicted worldwide famine in the 1970s and 1980s due to overpopulation, as well as other major societal upheavals, & advocated immediate action to limit population growth. Fears of […]
