Hallways

By skarafanda | Nov 25, 2023

The importance of hallways No one buys a house because the hallways are spectacular. The hallways are simply the means to get to the rooms that matter most: bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, or living room. Those are the main ones (although a really good laundry room is most helpful as well). No one ever posts pictures of their hallway. We usually pose in the living room or outside the home.

By skarafanda | Nov 11, 2023

By skarafanda | Oct 19, 2023

God’s Masterpiece

By skarafanda | Sep 23, 2023

You are one of God’s best creations! His Masterpiece. I have a few sermons that are “masterpieces” Or at least I thought they were at the time.
