As this Thing continues, so many people are seeking respite from “shelter in place” by going to parks that most of those parks are now closed. I feel sorry for city folks during this weird time. They may have Trader Joe’s, lots of movie theaters, fancy stores, access to sporting events and plays and concerts, grocery delivery, big libraries, fast internet, mega-churches, and who knows what else, but they don’t have beautiful places to walk during this Thing.
Those of us in rural places don’t have any of the cities’ advantages, but that is just fine. Life isn’t fair – I am not tall, blonde, thin, athletic, or young, and that’s not fair either. That’s okay – I have beautiful places to walk.
And back home again.
It is Sunday and I am breaking my rules about not posting on Sunday,. Now I will break another rule and post a Bible verse.
“God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of love and power and a sound mind.” 2 Timothy 1:7
Fear not, friends! (But wash your hands a lot, okay?)
P.S. It came to pass; it didn’t come to stay.

Well, I didn’t see this until today (Monday) so I did stick with my “no computer time on Sunday” rule!
You just can’t go wrong with photos of poppies and lupine! But the best of all–God’s Word! <3
Sharon, I commend you for your tech-free Sundays.
Thank you, Jana, Your posting is very Apropos for Sunday. I have enjoyed all of your recent postings, especially of Mooney Grove Park. You know I also enjoy your sense of humor. I can hear your voice as I read along with you. Please be careful but keep the beauty coming. <3
Nice to hear from you Nikki! Thank you for the kind words of appreciation, and I will email you.
Love seeing the pictures of Three Rivers- yes you are lucky indeed to live in such a beautiful place…….and to realize how fortunate you are! We all need to look around- and say. THANK YOU!
Hi Anne, I hope you and Mike are getting outside to enjoy some good things too.
Thank you for posting on Saturday and Sunday, love it. I’m glad you have beautiful places to walk and that you are sharing your beautiful pictures with everyone!
You are welcome, Virginia. Each week I have hesitated, not wanting to be excessive or pesky, so it helps to know people are enjoying the extra posts – thank you!
Thank you God for our beautiful world and you sharing! Amen
Amen, Anonymous, thank you!
That’s one of my favorite Bible passages and just what we all need now. Thank you! The lovely flowers you’ve been showing are what we’re seeing in some parks we’ve been able to hike in. It’s super bloom again.
Nadine, did you know that “Fear not” is the most frequent exhortation in the Bible? Guess we need to be reminded often. And I’m so curious to see your sky lupine!
