“Oh give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; for his steadfast love endures forever!”
‭‭Psalm‬ ‭118‬:‭29‬ ‭ESV‬‬

I finished watering a little before dark Thursday, and while putting things away and locking up the workshop, I heard thunder. That hasn’t meant anything lately except noise, but this was different. We did get just over one half inch of rain and for that we were thankful. It’s amazing how quickly a little rain rejuvenates and brings a fresh look to everything! More was predicted too.READ MORE

‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭55‬:‭8‬-‭9‬ ‭ESV‬‬

Good morning, or good day, should you be viewing at another time. Some of you have been experiencing extremely hot weather, but our past week, while certainly not cool, was a bit cooler than normal for mid-July.  We hope to visit the mountains next month. One day the website for our destination showed 69 degrees, and it was well up in the day. That would be a welcome change!READ MORE
