No, I haven't fallen off the face of the earth, although there have been a few moments when it seemed possible! I have been home one week today, and have been playing catch-up, and recovering from jet lag, and a myriad of other things.
The trip to the UK ended up great, although the project I went over to do almost got scrapped. The original plans just didn't work out, but thankfully, my friends there helped me come up with an alternative, and I believe I will have a new project in time for NQC this year. I am very grateful! OK, so here is what the new project is....
Many years ago, I believe in the early 2000's, while Roger was in the hospital in Houston, we were watching their in-house relaxation channel. It was simply nature shots set to soothing music. At that time, we discussed how we would like to do one or more of those, using the piano music of Roger. Of course, life got in the way, and we were unable to get that going, while he was still here with us. I have had it on my mind since he went to Heaven, and while I know there have been others done since we had the idea, this is something I wanted to complete. Rog and I had discussed several possibilities for filming locales, and in the interest of having help, etc., I decided to do the first one in the UK. What you will see is a series (hopefully) of DVDs called "My Father's World". The first DVD will be "A Celtic Experience", with very mellow, soothing music played to scenery from England, Cornwall, France, Wales, Scotland, Ireland, and N. Ireland (did I leave anything out?). Each song (I believe there are 15 in total) will have specially selected scripture superimposed, as well. There is no talking to disrupt the flow, just the beautiful piano music played by Roger. I am very excited to see how this is accepted. I believe it will be a tool that will reach farther than just the Southern Gospel fan base he had. If all goes well, it should be available in mid to late August. I will certainly keep you posted! (I also have ideas for one or two more......)
Well, I have to run for now. I am headed out today on another life-saving mission, and am very happy to be back in that saddle! I always know, that no matter where I am on this earth, I am always held soundly
In His Grip!
