THE SET UP: Dave and Licia Radford, The Gray Havens, set up their fun and eclectic mix of instruments in the front room of our Victorian home, the parlor. This was most logical as the parlor would have been the room most commonly used by performing musicians over a hundred years ago when our house was …
If you’ve been following us on Facebook and still don’t have your seats reserved to see The Gray Havens tomorrow night, then I’m not sure what else to say. There are a few spots left, so act fast if you’re still interested, and reserve your seat here. It’s sure to be a packed house. I’ve …

How Astronomy Supports Evolution…Yawn. Is anyone else tired of Evolution vs. Creation debates? I know I am. I would rather contemplate the cosmic distance of the sun using the parallax of my own eyes than watch tonight’s’ Bill Nye the self proclaimed “science guy” vs. Ken Hamm debate.
