And we're back to New Mexico...for a very important birthday.

More on Angels in the Bible...and why they’re few and far between. Also, meet the Ophanim.

We finish our visit to Corpus Christi, with a tour of murals, parks, surfer boy Jesus, and...Whataburger. No. Really. Could I make that up?

We come to the Waters of Babylon. But still no Michael.

We finally have a decent dinner, take pix of rusting ruins, and revel in being a role model for young marrieds.

I continue to link St. Michael The Archangel with Resheph The Plague Deity...and conclude they are basically the same. I also get Bible-nerdy finding Resheph in the Hebrew text. #Michael #Resheph #Angels

We go to Doc’s...and I realize I’m I’m Napoleon of screw ups and the Alexander of fiascos.

In my search for the origins of Michael The Archangel, I find a god of war and disease, but one with a warm heart: Resheph

We see more of Corpus Christi, discover some amazing murals and art deco architecture...and view some scars from recent economic downturns.

Yet another of my St. Michael The Archangel blogs, this one dealing with the period when God wasn’t God, but rather the first among equals.

We meet Corpus Christi, and discover it is -- yikes! -- a real city.

I explain why I think Michael The Archangel exists...and has existed for a very long time. It has to do with Superman.

Our 43rd anniversary (whoa). And I begin our wild and woolly Corpus Christi tour.

Michael the Archangel is a surprisingly young character. Or...maybe he isn't. A bit of a mystery.

And now for something completely different...St. Michael The Archangel. No. Really. Would I lie to you? Don’t answer that.

I complete the Casita Saga and consider my shortcomings. Also, check out the exasperated angel!

And finally the Casita is done. Plus a video. With marching band. You betcha.

And, by God, it's built. Whoa.

Gasp. We finally do it. We go whole hog Casita.

We finally launch the Casita...after all this time.
