This was one of many special days that have been spent with God enjoying God's Creation. Every bit of it down to the little tiny bugs which are so fascinating. "God I see you everywhere" is one of my prayers, and it is bringing to my attention the fact that God truly is "everywhere".
This day was extra-ordinarily special! We (GOD and me) shared this enjoyment - God through my eyes, and me through GOD's Creation. We want to share this day. NOTE: click pictures for enlarged views |

Story: The fallen tree was there for me to meet some people on horseback - they moved the tree so I could continue. Without that, it would have meant going all the way back around instead of just 1/2 mile back to my starting point. Great people, too! God is Everywhere!
Ten minutes after seeing the Turtle, I went back to find him - but he had already gone back to the pond and safety. This hike (with many long stops to listen to water, wildlife and more) lasted 5 hours. A great day spent with God! |
