Helped with the burning of some scrub at the future site of our church building. It involved dashing into some of the ashes to push wood into better piles. Apparently I wasn’t quick enough, as my boots, or at least the soles, are goners:

… what a long strange trip it’s been. I was in Birmingham all day yesterday, from a medical appointment at UAB to a family visit to a meetup with some of the Birmingham twitterati, semi-organized by André Natta of bhamterminal.com fame.

The Auburn Knights will have their annual reunion this weekend. Montgomery Advertiser story.
