Morning Reflections


Catching up on blogging for a bit... Long lists from home and work to keep busy with. The new deck is piled in the driveway waiting for the roofers to finish their part. The morning sun gives it's own reflective blessing on a new day.

New Trails


Many new life trials, all in gratefulness. This one, close to the new home, leads through some of the 9 mile creek water shed. I came around a corner to meet a deer walking towards me. We both stood still for several minutes watching, and wondering about each other.

Rainbow



Sauk Rapids Parade
All two and half hours of it.
Thought we would need flashlights to see the last parts!

Andrea shared the rainbow observation over breakfast.

The Rainbow... Gen 9:16 "When I see the rainbow in the sky, I will always remember the promise I have made to every living creature." --- Isn't it interesting that the reminder is for God. I always assumed the reminder was ours... Even in this ancient story God is the actor. I think we assume so often that biblical text are about us. More often than not, they are really about the acts of God.
