Remnants




Spring is here, though it often does not feel quite like it.

Fishie, my pet angel fish that has been with me for many years may not make it. I am doing my best with medication that has helped in the past -- a tea tree oil based one, and another called 'lifeguard'.


I have been weathering various troubles, from neck and shoulder muscle pains to allergies and broken plumbing in the house.

May the Lord have mercy as the seasons change, and Spring come truly into this person's life.

Speaking of the soul of man, which ought to aspire to God alone, he cried out, "Does the fish seek the trees and the fields? No; it darts throu...

Fawns in the Rain

The fawns which visited not too long ago returned during the rains the other day. There's flooding down by the river, but I am on a safe incline. I hope and pray the poor folks down by the river come out of it all without harm.

In the meantime

God willing, I will be blogging more about Touchkeys in the coming days. In the meantime here is a a photographic interlude.
