This weekend we finished our Struttin' Our Stuff video for the Culver's video contest. Now we need your help! We need you to vote for us by going to the Culver's page by clicking here. Then watch and vote.

The winner gets a $350 gift card to Culver's. (My favorite!) So, vote as often as you can. It helps our chances.

Regardless, you will laugh when you watch.

Please, oh please, share with your friends and family! . . .

The sun sets on an open field south of Sterling, Neb., that wards off hunters with a simple sign. As I walked up to the sign, I was surprised to see this nice metal warning sitting among the grass and sunflowers. Usually these signs are just bold black and orange plastic held into a pole by a handful of haphazard nails.

"No Hunting" signs started long before plastic. In the early days, very few signs existed, but by the 1920s, farmers were getting tired of all the hunting, and that is when the first signs started appearing. . . .

It's a question I always got.

"Have you ever donated your hair to Locks of Love?"

Now, instead of saying no, I can say yes. On August 8, I walked out of the mall in Hays with 12 inches of my hair in a bag, instead trailing out of my ponytail. (Yeah, it took me a while to post this. Not too many people have even seen the new, short look.)

Now my hair is down in Florida at the Locks of Love organization being made into a wig for some little child who suffers from medical hair loss. We usually just think cancer, but that isn’t true. Alopecia, an auto-immune disorder that causes hair to stop growing, is actually the greatest evil, affecting more than 4.7 million children. Cancer, as you probably thought, is the second largest cause of hair loss. Beyond those two, Ectodermal Dysplasia, Loose Anagen Syndrome, Trichotillomania, Telogen Effluvium and trauma, such as burns or accidents, account for other reasons children seek a wig. . . .

Today for Worldly Wednesday, I take a look back to a mission trip I took in 2006 with Teens For Christ to South Africa. We met up with a missionary there and traveled around the area, stopping in nearby villages, to spread the love of Jesus to young and old. This wasn't my first time outside the country with TFC, but it was my visit trip to the ocean, the Indian Ocean even.

I posted a few photos from my time there in my Photography section. Check out these images! . . .

Photos!

Check out the Photography tab at the top of the page to view my photography. These will all be photos I took sometime in my photography career. While viewing the photos, you can use the arrow keys to navigate through the images. Afterward, you can comment on what you saw. That would be awesome!

All this fancy website work has been done by Cole Malmberg. Thanks for working so hard on it! . . .
