This is Lloyds wife Angie. I have been overwhelmed by the love and support I have received since his passing. He touched a lot of lives that I didn’t even realize.
He encouraged a lot of people to break free from the 9 to 5 world and go for their dreams. He helped others any way he could. I have been blessed to be accepted into the ticketmaster family. They have been so kind through the process.
Lloyd AKA Bud was always in my corner and my encouragement. I have had a vision for a blog and podcast with Christian content. He helped me with the basic concept and helped me get the equipment I needed and I am doing it to honor him and of course first and foremost my God.
I have launched a website http://www.godfocus.net so if any of you enjoy Christian content hop over and check out my website. I hope to have the podcast up and running by mid summer.
Because so many of you have told me how much you enjoy reading Bud’s blogs I am leaving the page up for a while. To give you the chance to reread your favorites.
Thanks for being there for him and for me. You may contact me at angela@godfocus.net or subscribe to my blog.
Today’s feature image was one of 1000’s taken through the lens of my beloved husband Lloyd AKA Buddy to his family and close friends. He passed from this life into the arms of Jesus on Jan 18, 2022.
Buddy was a kind soul that loved God and his fellow man. He had a desire to make the world a better place. He touched countless lives and shared his vast knowledge with many.
He will be forever missed. I am going to leave his blog up for a little while so everyone can reread his article. I will let everyone know before I take it down. Until then, be bold, be brave and keep your God Focus. Be blessed all throughout your days.

The rattle of dry leaves brings a winter rhythm to the wind’s lonesome melody in the empty lake. I’m only able to tolerate a few moments of exposure to the cutting breeze. But the big blue truck has an excellent heater and I ease the lens through the small gap to capture the oak leaves as they hold the light. It only roughly two weeks until the New Light begins I tell myself. It’s my understanding that the Native Americans didn’t make a winter camp in the mountains of West Virginia because of the darkness. The gray skies and the mountain’s shadow can seem to be moving in on you at times. But the light of a good fireplace and the warmth of a close friend can make it easier to bare. While the truck is parked I open the lid of my thermos and the aroma of the coffee fills the cab. There’s nothing like your favorite warm drink on a cold day. The wind dies down a bit giving me a second chance to try capture the light in the leaves. It’s enough. I make my way back up out of lake bottom while holding onto the light of my own. The light in my heart that guides me and keeps me warm.
Good night friends and be blessed throughout your days.

Hello Friends! Tonight’s Feature Image is titled “Oal Burl 12521” and is available for purchase by clicking the thumbnail and reaching out to me on the contact page.
The echoes of summer reverberate throughout the empty lake. They’ve drained lake almost completely this year and I expect that they needed to inspect the dam. So I went down and scouted for any interesting angles of what looks like an alien world. On the way back out I noticed the large knot on a small oak tree. This is government land so there’s no harvesting allowed. But, burls are highly valuable wood. Because this one is so young I believe that when it matures it will be fairly large. The cause of a burl boils down to uncontrolled growth of tissues within the wood. In some ways its like a cancer except it’s usually not fatal to the tree. Some of things that start a burl to form include fungus, viruses, insects and mechanical damage. When you open a burl it’s full of wavy grain and sometimes swirls or inclusions. But in skilled hands what once was an injury becomes a thing of beauty.
Good night friends and be blessed throughout your days.
