On a routine outing in Las Vegas this week I was stopped in my tracks by a rainbow on the horizon. I quickly took a photo of it with my cellphone, and uploaded to Facebook. I doubted anyone could see the actual rainbow so I captioned it: Trust me, there is a rainbow. A dear friend,...Read More
What better way to be reminded about success on a Sunday than from a legendary coach. John Wooden left his mark not only on the game of football but on lives, organizations and communities.
