Ode To ADF
June 8, 2025
A few months back, I penned this satire about Microsoft Azure Data Factory (ADF). It’s a mix of my day job as a developer converging with my passion, music and songwriting. Today I decided to take a swing at updating the drums for it. If you are a software developer who uses ADF, you may find it funny!
The Name More Beautiful
March 28, 2025
Recently I was reading Romans and tears came to my eyes as I just got a great sense of how much God loves me and you. His great sacrifice means great hope for this sinner. I wrote this that same day. I hope it encourages you somehow, some way. This song was released March 28, 2025.
Saying Goodbye
March 25, 2025
Sadly this past March we said goodbye to a part of our family, Lucas. Lucas came into our lives a little over nine years ago. We knew he was getting older, but when he slowed down a good bit during his daily walks, we didn’t quite realize there was something more going on. My wife took him for his regular nail clipping and the veterinarian noticed he wasn’t himself. She asked to do some scans and the resulting news rattled our world.
Wayfaring Stranger

Using a Gretsch resonator guitar for both the rhythm and lead parts, here is my take on Wayfaring Stranger. I hope you like it.
Happy New Year!
January 1, 2025
Dear Reader, Happy New Year to you and your family! 2024 is gone now forever. It seems as one grows older that the years pick up speed and that our days are truly but a vapor. Reading Psalm 39:5 (NKJV), Indeed, You have made my days as handbreadths, And my age is as nothing before You; Certainly every man at his best state is but vapor. Selah Typically, for me, today is a day of reflection on past goals, and where I am in relation to those goals, both in the near term and in the long term.
