Just started “The Sweet Taste of Muscadines”, a Southern novel by Pamela Terry, the wife of former Atlanta-area Christian artist Pat Terry. The Pat Terry Group was big back around 1980, leading worship at the popular Dan Dehaan's Metro Bible Study in Smyrna. They had a classic album cover.

Worked past 6 pm yesterday. Got on the road just in time to drive into the fierce January thunderstorm that was passing through. Teriyaki chicken and tossed salad for supper. Up early this morning to lift weights at the gym. I work out at the East Cobb YMCA between 6 am & 7 am. While there I will usually count all the people coming and going. Usually between 20 and 30.
At JFBC the pastor speaks to the students at the Johnson Ferry Christian Academy, and takes part in JF intramural sports with his wife. Like SPdL basketball, there is an end of season banquet.
