Occasional jottings and pictures on subjects that interest me - mainly my faith, music and others. In the unlikely event that someone is interested - Flash - so named by my daughter because I take the odd photo, Blog of Doom because when I created it "of doom" was added to anything my daughter thought was good (that phrase has now been replaced by "awsum"). I don't have the heart to change the name of the blog.
