About me

Introduction I was raised in a small Idaho farming community. I was named after my maternal Grandfather Lavon who had passed away shortly before my birth. Although my name isn't Lavon, it is unique and different and no one can spell it or pronounce it. I didn't like my name as a child, but I've grown accustomed to it over the years. To some degree, my name has influenced who I am today. I look forward to meeting my Grandfather Lavon someday. So, welcome to my blog. I enjoy writing most days and sharing interesting things I come across. The problem comes in limiting my posts to one a day...
