KENDALLVILLE SAYS THE FOURTH OF JULY IS JUNE 30th

Yo, there. Guess what? It is apparently not convenient for Kendallville to celebrate the Fourth of July on July 4th. So the rockets red glare is scheduled for June 30th.
Ah, let me see; what did the soldiers at Valley Forge say? Could it have been, "Sorry, George the General, a winter stay here is not convenient. Let's resched for May." No, I don't think it was that.

Jeez Louise, and we can't be there on the Fourth? Well, I'm not surprised; many Christmas Eve services have been held on more "convenient" dates. I guess if people feel they can tell the Lord to take a raincheck, they have no problem doing the same with Uncle Sam . . . and John Hancock, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson and all those other fellows.

Explorers used to go into unknown territory to see what was there; I am going into the realm of blogs to see what I can add, and, in writing posts about my life here in Northeast Indiana, to see what I can discover about myself and the place I live. Maybe this is not so much a new-fangled blog as it is an old-fashioned pot-bellied stove around which stories and news are exchanged and shared.

Yo, there. Okay, I don't exactly look like my picture here. I have written for some papers in different places and at present I am writing for the Kendallville Mall. You may have read some of my articles; you may not have. A lot of the time I write for myself, and sometimes I don't do it on paper. Sometimes I write in my mind where the words can soothe or encourage or firmly establish a feeling in my memory place. Would that be my heart? Maybe. Sometimes I write funny stuff; I think I am at times melancholy. I don't think of myself as a writer or storyteller. I believe I just have a need to attach words to things. Perhaps it is a way of praying , a need such as that expressed by C.S. Lewis in the movie Shadowlands:"That's not why I pray, Harry. I pray because I can't help myself. I pray because I'm helpless. I pray because the need flows out of me all the time, waking and sleeping. It doesn't change God. It changes me."
