Big things have happened! As I mentioned in another post I was recently in AZ visiting family and friends. Well, one thing that happened on that trip was that my father and I took a look at all the parts I had printed for a camera and then put it all together. Right before heading…
Time in AZ – Summer 2025 – Part 1
The last couple weeks have been good for me and the family. We went on vacation back to AZ. Well, 2 of us did. My wife and one kid went to Lake Tahoe to meet up with some friends for 5 days. They drove to Tahoe to meet those friends that came from AZ. Once…
On Vacation
Hello all – I am out and spending time with family. I will try and write more later. But I wanted to make sure I wrote something for my Tuesday posting. So, more coming later in the week, I promise. There has been a lot going on this last week and more this week. God’s…
Questions from Kids
Every night my family does a short family devotional before bed. Undoubtably, one of my kids decides that this is a great time to ask questions – right before bed. We often try to find time to answer them to some degree or another. These questions run a wide range of areas but usually, but…
Father’s Day 2025
I have a great family. But you already knew that. I had a good Father’s Day this last week. My wife and kids made cinnamon pancakes in the morning. They were amazing. I think they may have been the best pancakes I have ever had. I am not a big pancake person, but the one…

May Music 2025
I realized I should add years to these if I am going to keep this up. I can’t just keep saying “Month Music”. I can’t believe May is already over. It feels like I just wrote about April’s music. I decided to put up all three options that I have access to this time. You…
First Camping Trip – In Idaho
Over Memorial Day weekend we decided to go camping. I started looking for a place to camp a few weeks prior to the weekend, and found that there are a lot of places to camp in Idaho, but there were a few issues we had to figure out: I found that near to Boise there…
Printing a Camera – Part 3
More parts! Well, new versions of some you have seen before and new ones too. Fist you get the new focus rails: They now have slightly rounded corners, and slots rather than holes. They printed really well. The gears look great, the surface looks good as well. I had one corner come up just a…
