Auroras tonight. They were hard to see, especially if it wasn't dark enough and your eyes aren't adjusted, but the camera brought out the colors wonderfully. We're having unusual red/pink auroras.

We are having rain in Wyoming in November. This doesn't normal happen. A foot of snow? yes. Sub-zero Fahrenheit temperatures? yes. Rain? I can't remember it ever happening. This fall has been weird.

Most modern Bible translations are copyrighted, although they are fairly lenient on use. The NASB, that I am using, allows up to 500 verses (as long as a whole book of the Bible isn't used) without written permission.

I would love to be involved, but that is right when I get off work and am driving home. I almost need a Bible study that is not scheduled, where everyone types responses when they get a break and maybe discusses a passage or chapter over a couple of days.

I'll try

My son will be graduating with a double major in computer science and math in a year and a half. He currently has straight A's and will be graduating from the honors program. We are wondering if he is best off going straight into the job market, or would he be better off getting a masters. He could excel in a masters, but college is expensive. I know the programming space is getting more competitive, so any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

I just finished the first draft of my book, “Learning About God Through Laughter.” Originally I had written 20 chapters, but had several suggest 30 chapters so it could be a one month devotional, so I added another 10 chapters. Because of copyright laws, I was tracking how many verses I used. It came out to exactly 365 verses — one for every day of the year. That makes me feel good about my book and that God was leading me in the writing. Now to the tedious and onerous task of editing and review. I already have some people reviewing the first 20 chapters. Now I’ll get to ask if people can add another 10 chapters to review. Whew! #biblestr

I was reading Leviticus 1 tonight. It describes the burnt offerings given at the Tabernacle. It talks of killing the animals, skinning them, draining the blood and pouring it on and around the altar. It talks about burning the entrails and dumping the craw and feathers of birds to the east of the altar. As I was reading this, I was thinking about how it must start to stink after a day of baking in the sun and much worse if they stay in the same location for a while. Then I noticed, at the end of the description of the burnt offering for each type of animal, it says, “an offering by fire as a soothing aroma to the Lord.” That does not sound like a “soothing aroma.” That isn’t how I would describe it, but God sees things differently than we do. We see the outside and the physical. God sees the heart of sacrifice of those who love, obey, and trust Him. I think it is really the sacrificial heart that is the real “soothing aroma.” #biblestr #Bible #Jesus #grownostr

I tried to post an article after watching your video, but this is what I got:

You are probably OK, especially if you have a healthy gut.

That is why the progressives work so hard in schools and media. They aren't producing progressive children, so they have to indoctrinate them.

Wednesday night we had the most spectacular sunset. Because it was getting dark and I didn't want the flash ruining my sunset, I put the camera in night mode. I tend to shake, so I rested my phone on the hood of my car to take this picture. it turned out better than I could imagine. I was worried that the hood of my car would ruin the picture, but instead it reflected the sunset looking like a lake instead of the hood of my car.

Goodnight and God bless
