  • Tim Hortons Arrives in Romeo

    When they first started building on the corner of M-53 & 32 Mile Road I hoped that they would either open a Starbucks or Tim Hortons at that location. The latter was realized this week.  For those outside of the upper Midwest or eastern Canada, Tim Hortons is a donut and coffee chain co-founded by…

  • Mike Harding was in the house

    Yesterday Mike Harding filled the pulpit at Romeo. It was fun to see Mike again and hear about his new ministry, 831 House. Here’s a little video about their ministry in Gulf Shores.  Mike was the guy who convinced Kristen and I to relocate to Romeo just over five years ago. Shortly thereafter he felt…

  • How are you doing?

    The most basic of questions now has a new meaning. At least where I live. You ask a shop keeper it and he asks you. Same with neighbors, teachers, folks at church, bank tellers, waitresses, and pretty much everyone I come into contact around town. “How are you doing?” It’s a basic, friendly question with…

  • Megan’s Journal Entry Today

    One of the things I love about my kids school is that they are trying to teach kids how to write by journaling. Here’s what Megan typed in her journal this afternoon. Paul is crazy I don’t know why. He loves me but he is mean to me. He likes my cat more than his…

  • A horrible yet honorable story

    I recognize that the news is never going to cover this story. So here’s it’s shot at getting out there. I received this email from a person in our community today. Most people would know her as a protagonist. I know her as someone with a deep sense of justice for our schools and the…

    Gosh, I just got home and I’m having a hard time controlling my excitement. Today was a blast! The teams were all awesome. Set-up/Tear-down team… excellent. Band team… excellent. Hospitality team… excellent. We had never been a part of an event quite like this one.  Joyce from Park & Rec and her team seemed very…

  • Easter Egg Hunt | Today!

    The day is here already. In about 45 minutes I’ll head over to the church to pick up the last of the stuff to head over to Barnabo Field. Despite the fact that it’s only 28 degrees right now, we’re hoping that it is going to get up to the mid-30s for this year’s community…

  • The Melt is On

    In the knick of time. With the easter egg hunt about 24 hours away, the melt is finally on in Romeo. According to our thermometer it only got to about 31 degrees last night and it is already 35 degrees. As long as the sun shines all day, we’re safe. With the forecast saying we…

  • We need a heat wave!

    This weekend is Romeo’s annual community Easter Egg hunt. (see video of last years event) This is put on by Romeo Parks & Rec department and has become a favorite of my kids. They only thing that they like doing as much is the first high school football game when they have a big party…
