The other day I was at convenience store in Tennessee, paying for a couple of items, when a Canadian 20 dollar bill fell out of my wallet and onto the counter. As I picked it up, the cashier asked, “What kind of money is that?” I replied, “It’s Canadian.” He asked to look at it, then said, “Its pretty…but you couldn’t but anything with it in this t…

My alarm was set for 6am, but I awoke at 5, because I’m always excited to hike in the mountains. So I read my Bible, then pulled out a map to study the trails. On this particular hike I was going with my daughter, Gabrielle, and my dear friends Danny and Cindy Tesney. Danny brewed coffee fit for a king…but I drank it anyway. We drove to the trailhe…

One dark, stormy night, while driving on the backroads in the mountains, I experienced stress that was caused by stress. Let me explain. It was raining so hard that I had my wipers on high, trying my best to see the road. Suddenly, my driver’s side windshield wiper arm broke. I immediately had to lean, with my seatbelt on, to the other side of the …

For years, I have enjoyed driving through the valleys of California while admiring the beauty of the almond orchards, especially the almond blossoms in springtime. But long before I saw the orchards, I loved eating almonds in my favorite candy bar. Just one bite of an Almond Joy and you understand why the word joy is part of the name. I was flying …

When I was a child, my parents loved to camp in the Smoky Mountains. I distinctly remember one vacation when we were passing Lookout Mountain, near Chattanooga, Tennessee, and I spotted a large cave opening on the side of the mountain. I felt like Tom Sawyer, and I wanted to know more about this cavern. As a teenager, I began spelunking and through…

Nearly everyone loves gifts, and Christmas is definitely the season for them. Our friends at Forbes state that Americans spend more than one trillion dollars during the Christmas season. Did you wrap your brain around that number? Pun intended! That’s a lot of gifts, especially if you’re shopping at the dollar store! One trillion is a huge mathemat…

Friendships are so special. It has been said that a friend is someone who truly knows you and still likes you! The friends I have the longest history with are the Syferts. My dad’s first time to preach in their home church in Indianapolis, Indiana was in the 50s. That evening, after the church service, Norm and Eileen Syfert invited my parents and …

Have you ever known someone who is addicted to the weather channel? I have a friend who can tell me the barometric pressure in Bulgaria or when a tropical storm is going to hit the Samoan Islands. Although he never leaves his farm in Stinking Creek, TN. But I don't have to watch the weather channel to know when it is going to snow here in east TN. …

Years ago, a close friend and I flew up north to a city covered in snow. Arriving at the airport, there were three people there to pick us up, and one was wearing that little black cap. You know, it was a limo driver. With the wind howling, we all climbed into the warm limousine and took off on the most memorable limo ride of my life. About 30 minu…

“Ok, I’ll do it.” Have you ever said those words and regretted them later? I have. I was in fourth grade when my teacher, Mrs. Lyles, told me she had an idea for a school program. She explained that one of my classmates would sing a sad country song, and I would walk out on stage and pretend to cry. “It will be funny! Will you do it?” Although I fe…

I’m wondering if any of you remember your first day of school. For many of us, it was a long time ago, but the smell of Elmer’s glue still sticks in my memory. What about the size of our first pencils? They had the circumference of a giant redwood tree. My generation didn’t have superhero backpacks, but we did have super awesome lunch boxes. Anothe…

The USS Alabama, a World War II Battleship, has been visited by millions of people since it was first brought to its permanent home at Battleship Memorial Park in Mobile Bay. What a lot of people don't know is how several young children helped move the 45,000 ton ship. The Mighty A, as she was nicknamed, served for three years during World War II a…

If you watch television, you have seen a zillion commercials; advertisements luring people to purchase items they don't need, like knives that cut through concrete, glue that can hold a rocket ship together and a Chia pet that looks like Darth Vader. Many of the ad agencies use a catchphrase to appeal to the listeners. Some commercials sound like t…

My late Uncle Otis had a saying, “If you are looking for me, look for the shade.” I was remindedof his expression while performing at an outdoor music festival. It was not a typical hot summer day…it was a scorching, sizzling, mind melting day. The large stage had a roof, so I didn’t see a sunburn in my future. However, I was concerned for the fest…

A few years back I was doing a concert in Ohio, where I was introduced to a very kind gentleman, Dwight Spearman, who had fought in World War II. I thanked him for his service, and he was very gracious, but like most heroes, he turned the attention away from himself and humbly gave honor to the soldiers who didn’t make it home. His stories and laug…

There are many things that contribute to a successful garden, and pulling weeds is one of them. My family had a small gardener when I was growing up, and I’m actually one of those strange people who enjoys weeding. Several years ago, I was visiting some dear friends in the mountains of Virginia. They had a beautiful garden, and one afternoon my fri…

There’s something special about sharing stories. Let me explain. One of the many zany songs I have written over the years asks the question…what happened to tomatoes? The chorus says, “What happened to tomatoes? Beats all I've ever seen. The ones you buy in the store are red, but still taste green. What happened to tomatoes? Does anybody know? They…

At the Lovelace House we make coffee in a variety of ways. We have drip coffee, pour-overs, french press, Keurig, percolator, and more. Mary Alice has a couple of coffee makers from Germany that I call her Science project. I always feel like I need to wear a lab coat and refresh myself on the table of elements before I walk near it. Although I love…

A couple of years ago we had a small earthquake in our small town. Everyone was talking about it. The last time our town talked this much about an event was when we had a grand opening of a new Dairy Queen. We were the epicenter of east Tennessee hot fudge Sundaes. After our quake, neighbors would ask, “Can you believe how loud the rumble, and how …

The beauty of the New River Gorge in West Virginia, and the bridge that spans this mighty gorge, is spectacular. When built, it was the worlds longest steel single arch bridge. Eight hundred and seventy-six feet high. Every year, on the third Saturday in October there is an event called the Bridge Day. They stop the traffic on the bridge so you can…

Many of us grew up when the ice cream truck roamed our neighborhoods playing music and ringing a bell that was music to our ears! I recall one day when I heard the truck go by, and I asked my mom if I could buy one of the seven cent banana popsicles. She said, “The ice cream truck has already made the neighborhood loop.” What?! She continued, “It h…

I attended Saraland Elementary school as a young boy. Every year, we had a Fall Festival to raise money, complete with a cake walk, bobbing for apples, and we even had a small enclosure for a makeshift jail. The fifth graders were in charge of the jail. I looked forward to being a fifth grader for two or three years. Finally, I was old enough, and …

Because I have a crazy song entitled, “Living In a Coffee World,” I am often asked when I fell in love with coffee. My love for java happened when I was a young boy, but trust me, I wasn’t drinking it at that age. I was way too hyper for that, but I would go with my mom to the A&P grocery store each week, and there was one aisle that would ambush m…

When I was a young boy, we lived across the street from a large wooded area. I remember going out to play one day, and our yard was full of baby frogs. It was like an Egyptian plague, but for a five year old this wasn’t a plague. This was a party. I caught several of the frogs and played with them all day, but I did wonder where they were coming fr…

Airplanes use to offer two seat options, first class and economy. Today there are many different options; main cabin, comfort plus, etc. Before long they will say, “Everyone who didn’t fully understand the Broadway Musical ‘Cats’ may come forward.” But there is one coveted row where everyone wants to sit, and that is the emergency exit row. Many ai…

Technology is changing every nanosecond. I’m never super excited about the latest gadget, because in a very short time, the latest and greatest becomes the latest joke going around the office. Pagers used to be hip on someone’s hip. Now they are in museums. Blackberrys were savvy, and now I only hear the word blackberry when someone is asking for j…

It seems like only yesterday that my four-year-old daughter, Gabrielle, asked me to teach her how to make a rock jump across the water. I was just thankful she didn't ask me to explain quantum physics or something even harder, like setting an alarm clock in a hotel room. We headed to the river in my jeep, and I told her about the importance of find…

My parents’ friends, the Wilsons, had a fairytale farm I used to visit, complete with a milk cow, pigs, chickens and a gentle horse named Duchess. Time spent there was magical—waking up to the rooster, milking the cow, gathering eggs for a huge country breakfast—but nothing compared to riding on Duchess. When I was around seven or eight, I convince…

My family used to camp at the Gulf State Park in Gulf Shores Alabama. There was a freshwater lake that was always full of fishing boats. I was determined to fish on that lake, but I had a few obstacles to overcome, such as, dad said my cane pole at home was too long for the car, there were no bait shops nearby, and I was eight years old without a b…

I’ve been blessed to see so much of America in my lifetime. Not just the big cities, but small cities that most people have never seen, are some of my favorites. One such place is Cave-In- Rock, Illinois. The town has a cave located beside the river, thus the name. Some movies have been shot there, such as “How the West Was Won” and “Tom Sawyer.” A…

When snow covers the mountain behind our home, I love jumping in my truck and riding the back roads to the top of the mountain. The view from the top is absolutely breathtaking. During our last big snowfall, Mary Alice started pulling the winter gear from the closet. She knows there is always a danger of me getting stuck and having to walk, so she …

I grew up on the sunny Gulf Coast. We had plenty of sunshine, but when winter came, we were void of snow. As kids, we all knew the winter songs; “Let It Snow,” “White Christmas” and of course, “Frosty the Snowman.” Snow was in our songs, but never in our yard. But one cold night the weatherman shocked us, saying it may snow tomorrow. The next morni…
