Snow Trouble


Why did it have to snow in the middle of October? Thankfully the roads were not that bad, but s I was cleaning off my car to go out to see my sister, I closed my finger in the car door. These pictures show my poor finger a few hours later. Unfourtunetly you can't really tell how swollen that finger is, my sister called it my Alien finger, because it looked like E.T.'s finger minus the glowing effect.

"As The Deer . . ."

I saw this beautiful scene as I stood at my kitchen sink. So I grabbed my camera and quickly and quietly snuck out to take this picture. As I looked at them it reminded me of my favorite church hymn.
" As the deer pantith for the waters,
oh my soul longth after Thee,
You alone are my heart's desire,
and I long to worship Thee."

What the?!? Corn?

I attened the "Cover Bridge Festival" at Kenobles park. As I was wandering around my nose caught the unmistakeable smell of roasted ears of corn. I headed over to the stall to get one for myself and saw this strange sight.
Neat huh?!
