Instead of writing some thought-provoking blurb, I will just wish everyone a Happy 4th here in America.  Regardless of how everyone’s 4th went, this is still the greatest country in the world, and we are still the freest.  I’ll hold up my glass of Apple Pie and wish everyone a safe holiday weekend.

It has been a while since I have posted anything or written any words for the upcoming “The Amanai Deception” book.  Bluntly, there have been more important things in life right now.  Our youngest son just had spinal fusion surgery with rods put in his back a little over a week ago.  These past ten…
