Jim is going fishing.

“No one is perfect – that’s why pencils have erasers.” – Unknown

Meet Jim.

Jim can’t speak or hear.  We communicate by writing on some scraps of paper he has in his truck.

Jim is going fishing near Knoxville.  He is from Edmonton, Kentucky.

Jim and I enjoy our drive through the mountains of Tennessee and use hand gestures to communicate.

After I took a photograph of him, my phone must have dropped into the floor of his car.  He sends me an email and is sending me my phone back.  Jim also caught 7 fish.

Jessie is a Jehovah's Witness.

“Fairy tales do not tell children that dragons exist. Children already know that dragons exist. Fairy tales tell children that dragons can be killed.” – G. K. Chesterton

Meet Jessie.

Jessie gives me a short ride through central Tennessee.  He is a Jehovah’s Witness and he explains his beliefs to me.  

Jessie is also a Kettle Korn salesman.  He leaves me with two bags of Kettle Korn.
