Author Archives: Jim Baker [a view from my morning walk] So recently I’ve been excited about a few things. They are pretty random but I wanted to share them with you. I sat down to write them all in one blog post and it got really long so I broke them up into individual blog posts. 1. As a […] My friend Lauren messaged me today and asked me if I had ever heard the song Though You Slay Me. I think I had heard the title but not the actually song, so I asked her for a link. She sent me a link, I was surprised that Shane and Shane was still making music […]  If you haven’t read about it yet, there was a 29 year girl with terminal brain cancer who publicly said she would choose to die with dignity by taking a pill on November 1.

KHON just reported that “A Honolulu police sergeant will not face charges after he was caught on surveillance video last month beating his ex-girlfriend.” They then later quoted […]  Last month I completed my CERT training.

I recently planted a zucchini plant in a 5 gallon bucket and am sprouting some jalapeño plants too. How did your garden do this year? Let us know in the comments!  Here is another installment in the Beauty In Jamestown series. It has been 2 months since our trip. I think after this post I will have one more and then will be done.
