Good morning and good coffee! Last night when I came home from work I found a whole bunch of old friends back in my office. What am I talking about? In anticipation of any possible quarantine my wife went to our storage unit and brought home several boxes of books that used to be shelved at our old house. I had forgotten about so many of these books that it was like running into old friends that I have spent hours enjoying spending time with. In today’s show I want to introduce you to some of my old friends, and maybe this will inspire you to go find some of your old friends that may be in a box or on a dusty bookshelf. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/larry-quicksall/message

Good morning and good copy! Well as we go into another day that is preoccupied with the coronavirus, there are many changes we are learning about taking place in different states. While many people are feeling fear, I’m not feeling fear because what’s taking place is very much like a storm. We have storms all the time, we prepare for them, and we ride the storms out to their end. And I think that’s what we are experiencing today. We are experiencing changes or the announcement of changes on a very frequent basis, and change results in stress, and stress can result in fear if we let it. Don’t let these changes result in fear. By the way, in preparing for the podcast I remembered the song by REO Speedwagon titled Riding the Storm Out. The lyrics give a good outline for how we should ride out this storm. Ridin' the storm out, waitin' for the thaw out On a full moon night in the Rocky Mountain winter My wine bottle's low, watching for the snow Thinkin' about what I've been missin' in the city And I'm not missin'

Good morning and good coffee!

That is the topic of today’s podcast, so grab your coffee and let’s get started! --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/larry-quicksall/message

Good morning and good coffee! Today I wanna share with you an old TV show that I watch several episodes of last night that was a nice break from the year 2020. I’m going back to a situation comedy of 1966 titled Family Affair.

Good morning and good coffee! Recently I’ve been talking about and thinking about the importance of having adventures to break up the routine of daily life. Some adventures may be small and local while other adventures may be a destination in other parts of the country. Today I wanna share with you a top 10 list from National Geographic on outdoor family adventures. Maybe you want to do one of these top 10 places, but I think it’s a great list to start stimulating ideas of other adventures that you may have the opportunity to do.

Good morning and good coffee! It is far too easy for life to simply become routine and slip through our fingers. My inspiration for today’s podcast it’s a song by Tim McGraw where he suggest we should live life like we are dying, and it’s inspired by a little meme that starts with the suggestion to laugh like you’re 10. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/larry-quicksall/message
