For God’s Sake: Prayer seems intended to change the one praying more than their circumstances

My wife has an endearing habit that I am gradually making my own. She says, “thank you,” for everything I do. If I take out the trash, she says, “Thank you for taking out the trash.” When we go grocery shopping, she says, “Thank you for helping me do the shopping.”

The hope was that a comeback was going to happen. It was the only option on a mild November evening two weeks ago at Bennett C. Russell Stadium. Yeah, Navarre trailed by 24 points in an opening round playoff game against Creekside, but no one thought it was over.

People have called me and stopped me at meetings to ask me what I thought about the Eddington upset over Piech. Everyone is saying that they did not see how that could have happened. Well, that is because they are informed voters.

For God’s Sake: No time for frantic preparation when Jesus returns

I awoke with a start in full panic mode. It was morning and sunlight flooded our tiny motel room. Shaking my wife, I shouted, “Get up, we overslept! We’re going to miss the ferry!” We bounded out of bed, threw on clothes, and wrangled our suitcases out of the room.

It appears the way some of the officials who help run high school athletics in the state is about as laughable as a night at the comedy club. The humor never stops. I’m no weather expert, but hurricanes aren’t a new thing to Florida.

For God’s Sake: Attitudes toward Halloween participation vary widely

“Do we have enough candy?” my wife’s text read. It was Halloween, she was leaving work, and her commute would take her past several grocery stores. I considered last year’s brisk trick-or-treat traffic and replied, “You should pick up another bag.”

Dear FHSAA, I know my birthday is still four months away and it’s not quite Christmas yet — even if the stores want us to believe it is – but if you don’t mind, I have a request. It’s not a big ask by any stretch of the imagination. I just want to make sure order remains in place when it comes to the district involving Santa Rosa County teams.

High stakes and hijinks in District 4 election

Someone once said that our local-elected officials have more power over the quality of our lives than the president of the United States. So true. Your vote will determine the future of Navarre – and this county for years to come. In the ring are Commissioner Dave Piech and Ray Eddington. Am I happy about […]

A big thank you to Bob and Carol Boston for remembering to bring their Navarre Press with them to Navarre, Ohio.
