Update: I did not find Nemo. Still, great fun officiating the wedding of Caroline and Ricky at the New England Aquarium this evening. 🐠🐟🦞

This past week I continued my sojourn through Presidential burial sites with a visit to President Andrew Johnson’s gravesite in Greeneville, Tennessee. At the highest point in Greeneville, he may have been one of the worst presidents but his site has some of the best views I’ve witnessed thus far.

284 years ago today in 1742, Susanna Wesley, the mother of John and Charles Wesley (and mother to a total of 19 children) died at the age of 73. John peached his mother’s funeral and Charles wrote the epitaph for her headstone. 📸: From my trip to London last November

I have a thing for old things, my job is proof of that—so this is my souvenir from our beach vacation. I wonder what the tooth fairy had to pay for this honker 5+ million years ago.

Today marks the start of Nurse’s Week—and I think it is one of the greatest of all professions. I’m biased, but when your mom is the nurse that she is, it just all adds up. She is a caliber of nurse worthy of imitation. Giving thanks for all those in the nursing profession today and every day.

I can very much assure you that though the glasses and clergy robe are the same, my life is not the basis for the new show “Big Mistakes” by Dan Levy on Netflix. It’s a hilarious show though—😂

It may be Easter but it’s also First Contact Day in the Star Trek universe—on April 5, 2063, humanity made first contact with an alien race, ushering in a period of exploration and innovation. To celebrate here are some of my Star Trek cast autographs. 🖖🏻

The girls, Stephanie, Nona, Crabby, and I went to see "Hoppers" last night. I highly recommend it. It's well worth your time to be reminded we're all in this together. "It's hard to be mad when you feel like you're a part of something big."

Your work may feel lonely, the road may feel barren—but that’s what they want you to think. It’s a dangerous thing to think you’re alone. It’s more dangerous for them when you realize it’s not true. If you’re in a state with a primary today vote like our democracy depends on it. Because it does.

I registered my grievances today by voting in the North Carolina primary election. I loved that a local student designed our “I voted” sticker.

My 8 year old daughter imposed ashes on my forehead this evening at church. I asked her if she knew what to say when she put those ashes on someone’s forehead. She responded that she did and said, “God loves you” as the ash swept across my head. What a perfect thing to say.

The Rev. Jesse Jackson died today. He was more than a civil rights advocate turned presidential candidate—he was a trailblazer whose desire was to bring all of us along for the ride. He will be sorely missed.

God, who endowed humans with reasoning and skill, grant that we may continue the yearly observance of assuming a large rodent-like creature has the foresight of meteorological ability for a season. This we ask through the intercession of St. Philip of Punxsutawney. Amen.

We’re camped out with my parents this weekend for the snowstorm, a Lee family tradition we hold fast to every chance we get. My dad piloted his drone earlier today over the area. He snapped some cool photos.

I'm deeply concerned with Don Lemon's arrest last night in conjunction with his recent coverage of a protest in a Minnesota church. This arrest isn't the right way of doing things and we all deserve better because of the precedence it sets.
