Check out our posts from the last week at the links below.

We have a big day planned ahead with four services at four different churches. It should be fun and blessed! I hope you have a great Sunday.

Historic and Holiness Heroes

Hello Friends,

This is Odie once again checking in from the beautiful state of California. We have had a great week in the Los Angeles area. So many people here need God and we are trying to spread the good news of the Gospel to as many as we can. I pray we can be an instrument to point them toward God in some way. 

Historic Hero

Thursday morning I was able to check something off my bucket list. We are parked in an RV Park in north Los Angeles and our days and nights have been pretty full all week. Dad surprised me one day by announcing we were taking a few hours to go some where that I have wanted to go for years.

We visited The Ronald Reagan Presidiential Library and Museum. We are parked 26 miles away and Dad figured we may never be this close again. I am so glad we were able to go and enjoy the museum and library on an absolutely beautiful California Day. It was perfect.

President Ronald Reagan was one of our nations greatest presidents. He was president in 1985 when I was born and I am proud to be a "Reagan Baby". We are Reagan fans in my family. For years I have loved reading history about President and Mrs. Reagan and I have wanted to visit the library. 

We had a great day Thursday. Thanks, Dad, for making it possible for me to go and experience this unforgettable place. We all took pictures and I will let Dad post more of the pictures in a future post. You can read more on The Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation and Library website.


I think President Ronald Wilson Reagan is someone worth admiring in our nation's history. He accomplished many great things as Governor and President. He is an Historic Hero. But Historic Heroes are not my only heroes.

Holiness Heroes

In January I wrote about two great people that I count as friends and heroes. You can read that post by clicking on the highlighted words in the last sentence. Today I wanted to tell you about another one of my heroes, 

Our 40th President Ronald Reagan, was an outstanding Californian! One of my holiness heroes is another Californian. Sis. Cindy Burris of Atwater, California is no stranger to our blog readers. She may never be found in our American History books but she should be! Sis Cindy has left her mark on many families including our Boggs Family History. I can not imagine our lives without this precious lady. 


Sis. Cindy is a wonderful wife to Bro Cliff and a loving Mother to Pastor Jared (Sis. Valerie), Bro. Benji (Sis. Laura) and Sis. Miriam (Bro. Jake). She is also an amazing Grandma to all of her ever growing number of grandchildren. I have even adopted "Grandma Cindy" as my California Grandma. 

Countless people call her friend. You know that to have friends you must show yourself friendly. Sis. Cindy is a true friend in every sense of the word and she definitely goes out of her way to show herself friendly!

Grandma is awesome at everything she does. Everything I have eaten from her kitchen has been scrumptious. She is the ultimate hostess, always willing to fix a "fabi meal" and open her home for an spur of the moment party. Actually Grandma is the life of the party. It is always a blast to spend time with her. 

Sis. Cindy Burris is faithful member at Amazing Grace Tabernacle. She is a great piano player and singer and always dependable to be on the job. She is a there to support other singers and the preacher as well.  It is always a blessing to have her in the congregation when we are singing and preaching. 

More than anything Grandma is a Godly woman. She has lived her life for God. Her life is an example worth looking up to. I am thankful for the privilege to call her friend and Grandma. 

Grandma Cindy, I love you so much! Thank you showing others how to be a Godly person. I appreciate your friendship!

Thank you for reading today.

I Can See Clearly Now

It seems the first email glitch I mentioned yesterday is solved. For whatever reason, I think deleting the email addresses and then typing them in again did the trick. 

The disappearing followers  caper has not been solved but I did hear from some that still receive their nightly email. I appreciate you letting me know that you are still on the list. 

Again, if you know anyone that used to receive notice of the blog and no longer receive it, please let them know they may have to sign up again. I do not think you can sign up from a mobile device without scrolling to the bottom of the page and clicking on "View Web Version."  The place to sign up is at the top of the right hand column of the desktop version and is called "Follow By Email."

Today's post is more about the BoggsMobile and Green Machine.

I can see clearly now the haze is gone!

The headlights on the Green Machine and the BoggsMobile have been way cloudy for quite a while. I had tried a couple of homemade remedies but nothing worked very well at all. I know you can have them restored professionally but I did not want to turn loose of the dough AND I did not know how well it worked!

While we were in Sweeny, Texas Pastor Larry Lamb noticed the dim lights and told me he had just cleaned his truck lights. They looked great. The next day he brought some Meguiar's for headlights and then told me how to use it. Bro. Lamb even did most of the work!




First, you tape off around the light and then apply the stuff in the bottle on the left. It goes on kind of like wax and then you polish it off with a soft cloth. Once that is taken off you spray on the other bottle and it clears up right before your eyes! It is amazing stuff! The lights look 100% better!






The old headlights on the BoggsMobile are Ford headlights and they are over 21 years old. I really did not figure there was any hope for them. They were so dim! I have used my new LED fog lights when I could, just to be able to see good enough to drive. 

I can see clearly now the haze is gone! The old Ford headlights are nearly like new. Even if it only lasts a few months, I have enough for another treatment on both vehicles AND the Maguiar's was only $20!

Thanks, Pastor Lamb!

Thank you all for reading today.
