It's now the third day in a row where unmarkably I woke up early and beat my 2:30 AM Garmin wakeup prodding. This morning as I prepped to teach biology, I was reminded of many years ago when, as a 14-year-old, I studied in the pre-dawn night for my own biology class. Conforming to those early mornings was far more difficult back then! Today? These pre-dawn hours are a fertile field for thought.

For my geography class, I've got a video to show: Noah's Flood and Catastrophic Plate Tectonics (from Pangea to Today). A long time ago, I recognized that the Earth is not billions and billions of years old, but is roughly around 6,000.

On a related note: this gave me chuckles this morning at 2:55 AM:

Why should a fool have money in his hand to buy wisdom when he has no sense?

Proverbs 17:16, ESV

So, it's another bread day this morning. I started fashioning it together at 3:15 AM and pulled it out of the oven right at 6.
