I recall the time I was by myself when my pick-up broke down on a seldom traveled road. It was a nice afternoon and after walking a good distance I stopped to look back. I could see clearly the road that I had traveled. But when I turned around to see where I was going I could not see very far ahead or tell what the road had in store for me.

Standing next to a collection of books focused on the founding of the American democracy, Rev. Reames is proposing through the Ministerial Alliance the formation of a coalition of those determined to observe the 2026 year as the 250th anniversary of the republic through “deepening literacy” concerning the foundations of liberty.

Dear Neil, I bought an orange tree from a local nursery in early 2022. It was supposed to be really sweet and hardier to cold than normal. I do not remember the variety. We had a hard freeze in December that year, and the top froze back to the ground. In spring 2025, I was ready to cut the tree down when I noticed it had regrown from below the graft. To my surprise, that growth produced seven oranges. I harvested some of those oranges recently, but they had hardly any juice and were white and stringy on the inside. Should I remove the tree, or is there something else I should be doing to get quality oranges?
