Hello,

Well another week in the busy old “retired” guys life. Had a but of work done on my feet this week. But healing well though it does take a bit to shower I have to soak my foot and change dressings. Busy with rides thankfully I’m learning where the cheapest gas is.

This week we are going to do numbers of the Bible. Many times the bible gives numbers for things. For the math-phobes out there no math will be involved.

Thanks for the comments and questions. I always enjoy them because it means people are reading.
