Thanks to all of you who supported the Lisa and me with financial gifts and prayers. The event was a rousing success. 

Thanks for getting behind me in support of the OC AIDS Walk. The reason my wife and I walked this year is that we wanted to extend the loving hand of Jesus to those who are hurting because of this disease. We are grieved over the negative, stygmatized, judgmental attitudes that are so often given toward those who are suffering. If only all of Jesus' followers would live and love like him...oh, if only. And finally, God we pray for a cure. Heal our people, and heal our land. So let it be.

Here are some pictures.

This little girl made me go "Awwwww." Especially with my own little girl on the way in 2 months.

And finally, the secret to those perfect lines on the baseball stadium field that seem so magically drawn. It's all in the lawnmower, baby!
