Definitely the Road Less Traveled

Posted in Family, Outdoor Adventures, and Photography

Project 365 – #202 Remember that trail sign that I posted yesterday?  Well, we thought we were going down the easy way, but it turns out we were wrong.  Because D’s activities are soooo limited right now, I ended up doing a lot of hiking to scout out the trail ahead as well as spotting as we went through some crazy areas.  D enjoyed himself, but he would have been much happier to go through this particular area at a time when he was feeling 100%.  He felt a bit guilty that I was doing so much scouting and spotting…

Take Up His Cross

Posted in Christian Life, and Photography

Project 365 – #198 But he turned and said to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan! You are a hindrance to me. For you are not setting your mind on the things of God, but on the things of man.” Then Jesus told his disciples, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. For whoever would save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it. For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his soul? Or…
