Dalmations are the cutest things with all those spots. I have heard that they’re a real handful, though, and don’t know why or where I heard it. Either that they are VERY demanding or just very rambunctious and need a LOT of exercise. But truth be known, I believe that most dogs are pretty demanding and need, or want, a lot of attention. :)

This is so pretty, Meg. Was glad to have an update on Baby Brooks; hard to realize he's six months old now - he'll be starting college soon. :)

These rains and flooding and tornadoes have really been wicked. Doesn't it seem the Hurricane season started earlier this year than usual?

I feel so very sorry for people who have lost their homes and precious belongings that can't be replaced. :(

Hello everyone! I have not fallen of the face of the earth (or my roof)

Busy & busier it seems with deferred work here on the home-front. Not much playing this summer but do get out for regular dog hikes & the cinema (but of course)

Quick trip to Chicago this weekend for memorial service of friend who died 2 weeks ago.. Nice to have the weather a bit cooler..60-70s = my ideal weather

I hope to catch up on the thread soon.. maybe when I get back home. I recall in 2003 the war thread was a couple thousand posts a day.. and we kept up!!!! You May enjoy THIS ... a walk down memory lane of Beautiful Women in My time (nice gentle background music)

Lost Ones
September 10, 2010

In my college years I worked as a guide, taking boys on treks into Rocky Mountain National Park in Colorado. On one occasion one of my hikers—a small, slow chap—lagged behind and took the wrong fork on a trail. When we arrived at our campsite he was nowhere to be found. I frantically went out to search for him.

Just before dark, I came across him sitting by a small lake—utterly lost and alone. In my joy, I gave him a bear hug, hoisted him on my shoulders, and carried him down the trail to his companions.

In a story by Scottish writer George MacDonald, he describes a young woman finding a child alone and lost in the woods. She gathered him up in her arms and carried him home to her father, at which point she gained an insight that was never to leave her: “Now she understood the heart of the Son of Man, [who came] to find and carry back the stray children to their Father and His.”

I want you too to know the heart of Jesus, the Son of Man, who came to find and carry back His straying children to their Father, “for the Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost” (Luke 19:10). No matter how far you may have strayed and how lost you may be, He came to seek and to save you.

Jesus came to seek and save the lost,
Left heaven’s glory, minding not the cost;
Looking high and low and far and wide,
The Son of Man for all was crucified. —Hess

To find salvation, you must admit that you’re lost.

Read: Luke 15:4-6

Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost! —Luke 15:6
Bible in a year:
Proverbs 8-9; 2 Corinthians 3
