Day One of going through the ashes of our house. I took this picture and was struck by the framing of it. It’s a picture when I was 17 years old playing with a local LPGA pro who came back in town to do a promotional golf exhibition. The man above is my old golf pro, the now deceased Bill Welch.

Most of my personal old pictures were in the closet where the fire started.

How do I feel about all that destroyed?

I’m not sure. I died to the dream of being a professional golfer years ago.

I trust I’m on the right path now being a wife, mom, and entreprenuer.

So I’m ok with this. Just poignant just the same.

Back to work now….to documenting from pictures, receipts, and video.

It’s a total loss downstairs.

Could only be a miracle the house is still standing based on what I saw downstairs.

    Hi Sis, Darren here, good to see that you have your chin up! I can see God’s Light shining through!
    It looks like that other bit of arson attempt has been soaked out and they are off and running aroud in circles again.
    You and yours are in my prayers

    God Bless!!!!!!!

    It is our job for God to encourage our other brothers and sisters in Jesus to always place our faith where it can be seen and heard – not to let things become stumbling blocks, but rather paving stones for the road we build, so that others can us them as stepping stones on their road.
