Beautiful, Cardhu, both the music and the Van Goghs.

Did you see Fish Hawk’s Van Gogh poem a week or so ago?

Thank you for sharing these PP Presentations with us. We enjoy them and look forward to them.

Those were the days my friend
We thought they'd never end
We'd sing and dance forever and a day
We'd live the life we choose....




Meanwhile, I must have shot 30 photos of the Matterhorn. (Talk about addictions.)

Friday, I witnessed the kindness of strangers. A couple of men asked if they could help. One even checked the battery cables for me. A young lady parked next to us and asked if we wanted to sit in her car with the A/C running. We thanked her but said that AAA should be there within half an hour. She came out of the store 10 minutes later with bottles of water. She would not let us pay her anything. One of my friends had gone into the store and purchased cups of ice.

This is Wonderful, Amy; the Kindness of those People, and our Lord's Hand of Mercy with you; when I Read that the Way Home was 25 Miles of Country Road, my Heart was Filled with Thanksgiving that the Battery didn't Fail out there. Thank You, Lord, for Your Lovingkindness and Your Grace!

Now, that’s a likely story, Yorkie....suuure:)

Amazingly, I slept quite well thank you, even though no a/c and the temp was still mid-70s at midnight. I kept both fans going strong.

I hear you, (((Jaycee))), that is a beautiful hymn for a funeral. It goes straight to your heart.

Occasionally, I think about what I would like to have played but don’t write it out.

I think “Wayfaring Stranger” would be one.
I once heard Josh White Jr. do a version that I love.

Yes, Dita, my husband thought that was the true, well said story of Jesus! I can just think of the first few lines and it quickly brings tears!

I think of things like that too and I want to write some things down for my kids. I am not sure I want an open casket!
(Hope no one reads my statement, they will think I am gruesome!)

If you can link me to the song “Wayfaring Stranger”, I’d like to listen again! Sometimes, not in hurry!

What a glorious song, Kitty Mittens, and a great group playing. Everyone is joyously on their feet. Joyously!!!

And you know I love these flower pictures from the King’s Ranch.
It’s not that easy to take such a good picture of a flower.
I know; I’ve tried!!

Enjoy this beautiful Sunday. (I wouldn’t mind if Sunday never ended, myself:)

I heard that, Amy. Up your way, it stays too hot at night to sleep outside. And I saw that it’s good for the crops, which is true for all those sun-loving, heat-loving plants like tomatoes, peppers, cucumber, melons and eggplants... to name a few.

And to think, this heat wave is what our troops will experience non-stop until October over in Iraq and Afghanistan.....
