Learning something new can be a challenge, especially as we get older. if you want to be more effective at learning new things, you may find it helpful to look at a model called the learning pyramid. Let me share with you today regarding this process and how it works.

This past weekend my wife and I joined with my two cousins for a trip to Branson, Missouri, and Eureka Springs, Arkansas. We had a great time, and I wanted to share what we did, the fun we had, and to encourage you to make a trip there as well!

This morning I found a booklet I received in the 1980s that talked about the progression of counties in the state of Illinois. I love this little book because it’s an obscure topic and it gives me the ability to dig deeper and opening up a door of understanding, a few people ever think about. On today’s podcast I talk about several different topics that I have dug deeper on and I encourage you to do some deep digging on things that interest you.

Today we’re gonna look at the wisdom of two individuals on how to handle when things don’t go as planned. First, we’re gonna look at the jazz musician, Miles Davis, then look at the actor Michael Cain. Pretty good stuff for today’s episode.

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone! Just a few positive thoughts on the Pilgrims, their challenges, and why we give Thanks.

Good morning from the Deerstand! I decided to record on location from the Deerstand known as Jerry’s Playhouse. It’s still dark out as I begin my recording, thinking about past deer hunts, my friend, Jerry Niccum, swapping deer stories, coffee clubs, and how we don’t get together to visit in person like we used to. So grab your coffee and a doughnut if you got it, and let’s start the podcast!

Yesterday, while cleaning out our old farm cellar, I grabbed a bottle of my dad’s wine that he had made years ago. On today’s podcast I want to share the backstory of this wonderful gift.

As deer season quickly approaches, I am filled with memories of my dad hunting from his Magic Deerstand.

Last episode, I was talking about preparing for winter, but today’s episode I want you to enjoy Indian summer and everything about it.

Burr! It’s cold outside! As winter weather starts creeping in I want to challenge all of you to plan what you hope to do this winter as you spend more time indoors. Maybe there’s certain activities that you’ve been putting off that you may want to add to a list to complete or accomplish. Maybe there are new skills that you would like to learn. Maybe you want to gain some formal knowledge on a topic. Point of today’s podcast is that if you don’t plan it, you’ll probably wind up wasting that time, I know I have in the past and I don’t want that to happen this year. So join with me as we talk about some different ideas of what to do this winter.
