CJ and I took to the woods, trails, overlooks, and more today. Perfect weather. Cerulean sky; small breeze; leaves beginning to change colors; uncrowded trails; friendly fellow hikers, etc. Purchased a couple of hoodies at a trailhead. Saw spectacular sights. Even had my heartrate quicken today as I almost stepped on one of the good snakes. Returned this evening; burned some fallen limbs out back. Three of us went out for subs this evening and saw a brother from church, and we all chatted for a bit. All in all, a very good day. Thankful. Below are some of the pictures from the day:

Below is just a simple picture from a tree that’s in our little town, but I love it. My old iPhone does not do it justice, but as we drove down the hills today into the city to grab sub sandwiches for supper, the way the evening sun hit the limbs, and the way the shadows fell upon the ground, I was once again in one of my little silent worship services I have wherein my soul cries out to the Lord who is beauty Himself and the Author of beauty, “Thank you for this. I see. And I am grateful.”
