Creation
The Easter Lily
My mom and I went to the Parkinson’s support group this afternoon. I learn so much when we go to these meetings and meet wonderful people. The meetings end with a potluck lunch. There is a chaplain who reads a little meditation and prayer before we eat. Today she talked about how the shape of the […]
Option Two
We took advantage of the mild weather today and headed to the cabin in the mountains for the day. We decided ahead of time that we would stay a little longer since it stays light longer and stop for dinner on the way home. After enjoying the day, we surprised ourselves when we got in […]
Positive Exposure
We have visited the mall several times for various reasons, but only realized recently that there has been a photography exhibit there. Being a photographer himself, my dad spent some time at the mall the other day, but was unable to locate the exhibit. We decided to give it another try, so my dad and I headed […]
Meeting a Mountain Man
Today we took a little trip up to the cabin in the mountains. On the way, we kept an eye out for wildlife as usual. We spotted a herd of bighorn sheep near the rocks we usually see them. Before I could slow down, we were past them, so I found a place to turn […]
Angel in the Sky
We had a little break from the winter weather today, so we decided to spend the day at the cabin. The sunshine, the snow on the mountains, and the clear blue sky was just gorgeous. When we arrived and got everything settled, I went out on the deck. The air was so crisp and clear. […]
Priest in the Trees
My parents get a couple of magazines on a regular basis. I usually don’t take time to sit down and read anything, but my mom reads things to me that I would find interesting. It’s good voice exercise for her. A couple weeks ago, my dad kept out an article that he thought I would enjoy. […]
Be That Tree
I have been reading scripture about Creation and how wonderfully made our world is. I was happy to actually experience nature today. We made a trip to the cabin in the mountains yesterday to enjoy what could be the last beautiful weather before winter. When we looked at the pictures taken by the game cam, […]
Finding Beauty
Columbus Day weekend was always one that I looked forward to when I lived in the Northeast. Mostly because it meant a long weekend with the Fall foliage colors at their peak. A couple of years I headed to visit my son over the weekend and would take the route that went through the mountains. […]
Fall Day at the Cabin
Yesterday, my mom, dad and I headed to the cabin in the mountains. It was the first time my mom had been there in months. We brought along the oxygen monitor as suggested by the cardiologist, just to keep an eye on things. She did great and so did my dad. The scenery was just […]
Heart of the Matter
As I was thinking about what to write in this blog tonight, I suddenly became keenly aware of my own heartbeat. It was distracting for while, but then I realized that my heart is beating because God wills it to. I can worry about the health of my parents and myself, but God has created […]
