Clear Adventure
My friend and I decided to try to take a drive in the mountains this week. However, she cares for her mother and she wasn’t feeling well the day we planned on going. I completely understand that situation. So, we decided to wait. We had the opportunity to go today and took it. My friend […]
Flowers From the Window
My neighbor and I visited on the porch this morning. While we were there, the lawn guys came and mowed, which led us to talk about our outside flowers and plants. We share the sidewalk, so we can see her house and garden area from some of our windows, and she can see ours. Earlier […]
Perfect Fall Day
I have been wanting to drive a certain gravel road that I know of through the mountains. It was a gorgeous day today and a friend of mine was able to get away, so off we went. We first took the highway to a mountain town. The Fall colors were stunning after the cool, wet […]
Watching Art
My sister signed up for some online painting classes. I colored a little bit last night while she painted – that fits me a little more. I went to bed before she finished and saw her water colored butterfly when I got up this morning. She is so talented. Tonight I went to dinner with […]
Back Outside
After a rainy day yesterday, I was happy to see the sun shining this morning. I was still at the cabin, which makes it even more beautiful. After breakfast, my brother and I went out and did a little work on the gravel driveway. There were some pretty deep ruts that the rain had worsened, […]
Morning Thunderstorm
I decided to spend a couple days at the cabin with my brother and arrived yesterday. I woke up early this morning as usual and it was still dark outside. Before I laid back down to close my eyes, something caught my attention. I thought I saw a bright light flash through the window. I […]
Simple Beauty
As part of my new routine, I have decided to walk every day. This evening I walked as the sun was low in the sky. The Black-eyed Susans, which look like mini sunflowers, grow wild in the fields and were in full bloom running right along the sidewalk. As I was enjoying them I caught […]
God Does Not Love
We had a guest priest at church today. He was from the poorest Diocese in Kentucky and was asked to be a missionary. He was very exuberant and it was easy to see why he was chosen for the job. Before he became a priest he was an actor and musician and was even in […]
Pinks, Peace, and Prayer
A friend came over to the house this evening and we sat outside on the porch to visit. The sky was full of a variety of clouds. Some were low and flat, others were higher or puffy. And there was an occasional piece of blue sky that peeked through. There was no wind and a […]
Spiritual Thirst
After my dad died 2 years ago, a friend gave me the book, A Shepherd Looks at Psalm 23, by W. Phillip Keller. I have been trying to read it a little more recently. The book is interesting because the author, as suggested by the title, was a shepherd. As a Christian, he was able […]
