Books and other things


cold, wet rainy days makes me want to stay inside and read..


Here is a great book I'm reading.. it's about how we have forgotten about the Holy Spirit. Not over the top, not undermining, just right. Thought provoking.
Looking forward to a calm weekend in Lynchburg.
Doing some projects.. card making, knitting and yo-yo sewing.

Anyways, I did these in Downtown Lynchburg and had a blast. Here is just a sampling of the hundred's of pictures I took!

verses/running

I know, I know..I kind of just blog about running.. well... its not all the way true.

Yesterday, Christina and I went running (by the way we killed our last time.. of 4 miles in 42min..we did it in 38min) and while we were running she asked me what was some of my favorite scripture..

.. sadly, I wasn't sure how to respond.. sure I have a few favorite verses and a psalm or two.

Does this mean that I'm not in the word enough? Do I not practice meditation enough? ..

something I'm pondering..

off to DC for the weekend to visit the lil sister!

Williamsburg
















Being a VA resident, it is an atrocity that I had never been to Williamsburg. Finlay, on the University's dime, I was able to experience Colonial days. We took 8 students and enjoyed a relaxed day in different parts of the town. I think the best part was the amazing food we had at the King's Tavern.. corn chowder soup and Fried Chicken (can't ever take the southern out of me) and amazing rolls.
I enjoyed the town and learned a lot. My favorite story was about the Randolph's. Mrs. Randolph had ordered china from China and while at sea the boat (carrying the china) capsized and sunk...well recently in the last few decades, divers found the boat, recovered the china and they restored it. So what I saw sitting on the table had been at sea for more than 200 years. Pretty neat huh!
