Daniel and I have just finished enjoying a wonderful day at the Fatherhood Conference in Wake Forest, NC. Today's topics were:
1. Finding Yourself on the Roadmap for Biblical Fatherhood
2. Fathers Who Saturate Their Homes with Scripture
3. Breaking Free from the Patterns of our Fathers
4. Understanding and Living Your Life Purpose
5. Workshop in Scripture Reading
Lots of encouragement and conviction for us both to listen to things that directly touch our daily lives. Also good to meet more like-minded men from different parts of the country. Chuck and Thomas Deladurantey are also here.
We spent the evening strolling around the grounds of the Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary, which is in Wake Forest. We were both salivating over the architectural details and took quite a few pictures. We interrupted a choir practice in one building, and interrupted a piano recital in another, and then, in our ecstacy over the woodwork, we forgot other people were in the building and walked down in front to lay on the floor to get a shot of the ceiling.
After being escorted off the grounds we...well...okay, perhaps that is stretching it a bit, but you can imagine that we wanted might badly to go down in front and lay down to get a shot of the ceiling!
Here is Daniel in a period doorway after having very carefully looked over the plinth blocks and the jamb casing.
And of course, below is a very important window sill detail, illustrating the correct placement and proportions of stool, sill trim, and jamb casing. Isn't it just thrilling!!
And of course, here is yours truly, in wood trim heaven.

You had me grinning inside guys. I can just picture you laying down on the ground to get a picture of the ceiling!!!! :-) Or interrupting a choir practice! Tsk tsk . . . whatever shall we do? :-)
The conference sounds like it was very uplifting and encouraging! Can't wait to hear all about it.
We are having a splendid time with Jaelynn and Kenra . . . we have all decided that four days is just NOT enough time. :-) It's been wonderful.
