@SecondJon WELCOME from another newcomer top Mastodon, also a dad, Christian (Reformed but between churches right now, having recently relocated to a new state), and conservative (certainly not necessarily Republican, since the GOP ain't conservative anymore). A perpetual student of the #bible and always learning. Retired after 30 years in Fire Rescue, now working in South Georgia as a "wood chuck." That is, I chuck (haul) wood products between lumber yards and paper mills and such.
