LOVE the MLK quote, Aussie. Do you know what Dekker wrote. He sounds like an author I'd like.

Ted has written 40 books, so far. They are usually thrillers but all based on Christian principles. A.D. 30 is based on what life was like during the time of Jesus' ministry. He wrote A.D. 33 about what life was like at the time of Jesus' death. He is the son a missionaries. He has co-authored books with Frank Peretti. He grew up in Indonesia where his parents were missionaries to the canibals in that country.

The author Frank Peretti rings a bell. I listen to so many audio books it's hard to remember.

After seeing your posting, Parson, I looked up both Dekker & Peretti and boy they have written a lot anf even had a few movies made of their books. I'm surprised they aren't well-known.

They do have his books in our library, so tomorrow when I go there I will take one out. Thanks for the information PW. Hugs.
Oh, nice one, Pixi! I'm something of a pun addict too - it's wizard fun!

It was in the high 70s, low 80s he yesterday. Today it is just the 70s, It looks like it might storm right now though. I do love the leaves changing at this time of year the colors are wonderful!
There was an old witch
Believe it if you can,
She tapped on the windows
And she ran, ran, ran.
she ran helter skelter with her toes in the air,
Cornstalks flying from the old witches' hair.
Swish goes the broomstick, meow goes the cat,
Plop goes the hop-toad sitting on her hat.
"Whee, "chuckled I, "What fun, what fun! "
Hallowe'en night when the witches run!
Cute and did hear about one Halloween decoration that was quite clever. It looked like a witch crashed into a tree. There was another one I heard about. Then I heard about a family in a neighborhood near by - this family gave out Coke, hot dogs and candy every year.

God bless all of you. Hugs.
Wishing you fair winds today.
