Me too!

My Dad tells a funny story about when he was young and his father sent him outside to hand-grind the horseradish root (round about 1955-ish). If you've never done it before, the fumes will literally knock over a horse and make it's eyes water for days if it done in a small room with the windows closed. After a litte while, his Dad went out to check on him. He cracked up laughing! There was my Dad, grinding the horseradish with his swim mask and snorkle on!

I'd like to see close-ups of each Easter egg. You can tell they are extremely detailed.

Well it's helped with the lung troubles which I come by honestly from MOM. The asthma is a different thing, I think.

Psalm 138

 1 I will praise You with my whole heart;
         Before the gods I will sing praises to You.
 2 I will worship toward Your holy temple,
         And praise Your name
         For Your lovingkindness and Your truth;
         For You have magnified Your word above all Your name.
 3 In the day when I cried out, You answered me,
         And made me bold with strength in my soul.
         
 4 All the kings of the earth shall praise You, O LORD,
         When they hear the words of Your mouth.
 5 Yes, they shall sing of the ways of the LORD,
         For great is the glory of the LORD.
 6 Though the LORD is on high,
         Yet He regards the lowly;
         But the proud He knows from afar.
         
 7 Though I walk in the midst of trouble, You will revive me;
         You will stretch out Your hand
         Against the wrath of my enemies,
         And Your right hand will save me.
 8 The LORD will perfect that which concerns me;
         Your mercy, O LORD, endures forever;
         Do not forsake the works of Your hands.

Hi kayak! Prayers up and God bless everyone on that list that keeps getting longer each time I see it. And God bless those who have returned and are having trouble dealing with what they saw, was hurt by, and must deal with for the rest of their lives.
