Day at the Museum

Tuesday, December 15, 2009

If your travel takes you anywhere in the vicinity of Cincinnati, or if you’re contemplating a special family outing for 2010, Owen would like to offer a recommendation…

His family stopped at the Creation Museum in Petersburg, Kentucky after a very stimulating Sufficiency of Scripture Conference last weekend.  He thinks everyone should savor an incredible day of fun and education at the Museum!

The life-like displays were enjoyed by he, his young siblings, and friends…

The outdoor petting zoo was a big hit, too.  Here, Owen’s older brother meets his namesake (Bennett’s Wallaby)...

Back inside, his big sister found hours worth of fascinating displays…

And for Owen, the perfect conclusion to a day at the magnificent museum was a ride atop a dinosaur…

Thank you to the visionary folks at Answers in Genesis for providing this state-of-the-art facility for families - such as Owen’s…

His Formula for Success

Monday, December 7, 2009

George Washington Carver pushed his students toward academic excellence.  But of greater concern to the renowned scientist was their character development.  Below are the “cardinal virtues” he sought to instill in his students:

Be clean both inside and out.

Neither look up to the rich nor down on the poor.

Lose, if need be, without squealing.

Win without bragging.

Always be considerate of women, children, and older people.

Be too brave to lie.

Be too generous to cheat.

Take your share of the world and let others take theirs.

We’ve been in the edit bay finishing this project for the last several days. In the parlance of the film world, we’ll have the picture locked tomorrow night, after which the composer will do his work. Our new film about the remarkable George Washington Carver will be available in January.
