Dan

Abram and 318 men chased Ched-or-laomar and his allies all the way to Dan before he caught up with them. His journey to Dan was about 130 miles from Hebron and they walked all the way. We were at Dan and it was late in the afternoon. I had only walked 5 miles that day and I was worn out.

Dan was not a new place to me. "Been there, done that" and it was raining hard. I had coffee. Dennis and the others trudged through the rain and mud for two hours.

I had a quiet nap in the car after the excellent cup of espresso. Stan had pneumonia when he got back home.

Choices
I choose to lose or win or stay.
By everything I do and say.
The way to win is not the thing.
All count with coins and others say.
Winning comes from out the soul.
It’s based on things we are.
There is one who grows each choice.
I reap the growth in life’s long road.
