Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge this week is on wheels. Since today’s post was written a week ago (since I am away this week) I cannot link to the current post but this link should get you close enough to look at a ton of other people’s wheels.

SKywatch Friday 8-29-14

 

Meadow Skies

Once again I am posting my Skywatch Friday on Saturday. But this week it is not because I am running behind but because it is expedient. I am actually writing at 2 A.M. on Wednesday morning getting all my posts for next week done since I am going to be away at Special Touch Ministry’s New England Getaway leading worship. I don’t imagine I will have a whole lot of time to post from the Berkshires. I will follow up on comments when I return. 🙂

Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: Roads

This post looked like so much fun I just couldn’t pass it up. Cee has asked us to photographically explain roads for this post at

“The Road goes ever on and on
Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can,
Pursuing it with eager feet,
Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then? I cannot say”

I have fallen a bit behind this week with all my postings. I am days and days away from my #100happydays posts but that is a whole ‘nother story. This post was created for Nancy’s challenge at

Travel Theme: Horizons

This week’s travel theme from Ailsa is: HORIZONS

We have always held to the hope, the belief, the conviction that there is a better life, a better world, beyond the horizon.

A well-ordered life is like climbing a tower; the view halfway up is better than the view from the base, and it steadily becomes finer as the horizon expands.

The health of the eye seems to demand a horizon. We are never tired, so long as we can see far enough.

The wideness of the horizon has to be inside us, cannot be anywhere but inside us, otherwise what we speak about is geographic distances.
