for Linda


Posted by Picasa.
But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God
and not from us. We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed,
but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed.

Paul, in  Second Corinthians 4 v  7-9

one of the best days

mom had so many good days. 
we worked hard for some
others came easily. this was my birthday and i wanted something simple
a picnic in a boat ( loaned) with my brother, kids, and mom
I got my wish, and she had a great time on the lake
she was always a willing and happy participant
in family outings, loving that we were together and in the sun.
Her wishes were for lasting bonds that would get us through whatever was ahead.
I think she is getting her wish, even now.

skywatch friday

skywatch friday is back

  or perhaps I am back to sharing great pics of the sky,
this one taken from 11,200 feet on day three of my hike to Mt. Whitney.
God blessed with good weather, and only a few lightning storms and small rain showers.

a tree is a tree

no matter how twisted
"And the LORD God made all kinds of trees grow out of the ground--trees that were pleasing to the eye and good for food. In the middle of the garden were the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil"
