“I will extol you, my God and King, and bless your name forever and ever. Every day I will bless you and praise your name forever and ever. Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised, and his greatness is unsearchable”
Psalm 145:1-3
“Oh the Lord, our strength and song, highest praise to Him belongs!
Christ the Lord, the Conquering King, Your Name we raise, Your triumphs sing! Praise the Lord, our Mighty Warrior, Praise the Lord, the Glorious One!
By His hand we stand in victory, by His Name we overcome!”
-Aaron Keyes, Song of Moses

Saturday night dinner at home with grilled steak and polenta!
This old mill is located very near the farm where Butch’s grandparents raised cotton many years ago!
“I was glad when they said to me,

Love everything about you blog. Could bridges be covered
because ice forms first on roads over water?
Nancy, thank you so much. I am so thrilled that you like our blog. That is a very good point and you could be right! Hope your Sunday is joy-filled! Blessings, Pam
My daddy used to have a truck very similar to this purple one. It was a Blue and white ’57 Chevy.
I’ve read that covered bridges were covered to protect the bridge from the elements….they did last longer that way.
Good morning Emily! Thank you for your comments! I have been driving by the purple truck for weeks and there was no way to miss its color! Hope you have a wonderful Tuesday! Blessings, Pam
Bridges were covered to keep ice, sleet, and snow off them.
Also, for safety when ppl traveled by horse drawn carriages/wagons. Some horses would spook because they could see the drop to the water below. When the bridge was covered, it would seem like they were entering a barn, something the horses were comfortable doing.
Pattilynn, thank you for answering the question! Covered bridges are always fascinating! Have a marvelous Tuesday! Blessings, Pam
Your Sunday posts are always full of God’s beauty, my friend. You are right, each sunset is unique and lovely…no two are the same 🙂
Have a blessed week! Hugs!
Stephanie, you are such a treasure! Thank you for your encouraging words! Wishing you a joy-filled week! Blessings my friend, Pam
Wonderful photography. I love the covered bridges.
Carol, I love covered bridges, too! Thanks!
Stunning as always! Love the Crimson Clover, the covered bridge, and the old mill! Of course the beach bums steal hearts! Thanks for sharing with SYC.
