    God, Wind, and Surfers

    God, Wind, and Surfers

    There is nothing quite like the power of God as seen through an incoming storm on the ocean. This week we planned on spending a few days in-between our two fall semesters down at the gulf, and of course there was a strong remnant of a hurricane from the Pacific on its way over [...]

    This Friday for Friday Feet the plan was to focus on the day at hand, Good Friday.  We had a nice relaxing day at home on Friday in preparation for the Good Friday service and it ended up being one of the more memorable services that either Deborah or I have been to in years.  [...]

    Time to Give Camping Another Shot

    Time to Give Camping Another Shot

    Last weekend we tried to go camping but the rain never really let up.  Not only did it not let up, but the severe weather down in the gulf kept getting worse so we decided to give it a go this weekend.  We are or were pretty avid campers in the day and we have [...]

    Total Rain-Out in Auburn Today // Friday Feet

    Today we were supposed to be camping down in Mississippi with beautiful sunshine and warm breezes but the photos I took today show just why we decided to go another weekend.  Some huge frontal system moved in yesterday and seems to be continuing to move east from Texas making for a very wet and cold [...]

    Temperature and Dew Point Converge

    Temperature and Dew Point Converge

    Did you notice the fog this morning? Fog is really cool to me.  It doesn’t happen all that often but usually occurs when the relative humidity comes close to 100%, is more commonly around the 40° temp range and happens when the temperature and dew point converge within about 4° of each other.  If you [...]

    March Snowstorm in Alabama // Photos

    March Snowstorm in Alabama // Photos

    A rare snowstorm hit the state of Alabama this weekend.  It was 3,319 days since any measurable snow was recorded at the Birmingham airport and today they reported 2 inches of snow.  That said, we are two hours southeast of Birmingham so I am sure it has been even longer down here.  It was quite [...]

    Auburn University in the Snow // Photos

    This was one heck of a snow storm we had today.  Over the past two days we have had tornado warnings, then 70 degree sunshine, and the very next day we had several inches of snow.  I did manage to get out and take several shots of the snow storm today and didn’t want to [...]

    Rain With Snow on the Way? // Friday Feet

    Today ended up being a very rainy day in Auburn and since Deb and I got back from Catalyst One Day around midnight last night, we didn’t end up going anywhere for Friday Feet this week other than dinner.  We went to one of our favorite local places, Loco’s (also a favorite with college students).  [...]
