words for Life's Journey
Living Life...
Life is not about the destination; it’s about how we live all along the way. It’s easy to become so goal oriented and focused on our dreams and the big life events that we overlook the simple things that we should be enjoying. Don’t make the mistake of just living for the destination to where your life goes by in a blur because life is short; we’re here for a moment then we’re gone. Take time to smell the roses. Appreciate the people in your life. Enjoy your spouse and children. As you make the decision to slow down and enjoy the journey, you will experience the fullness of what God has in store. When you come to the end of your life, you’ll have no regrets. You will have made the most of your life and will finish your course with joy.
Start living in the now...

Farmers know their stuff.....
Here's their forecast for April through October:
April and May will be much warmer and drier than normal—great weather for outdoor activities, but raising concern about summer drought.
Summer will be cooler than normal, with the hottest periods in mid- and late July and early to mid-August. Rainfall will be below normal, with the greatest threat of drought in the east.
September and October will be slightly cooler than normal. Tropical moisture in the first part of September will bring above-normal rainfall.
Looks like a dry summer and a wet Fall...we shall see.

I received this little rocking chair as a gift almost 40 years ago. A friend worked for the Continental Can Company and his co-worker made these chairs from new empty cans.
Imagine cutting the sides of a can into strips that measure less than 1/4 inch and then curling them to make this design. The bottom of the can forms the seat and then the back and seat were covered in velvet.
It always amazes me to see just how talented some people are!
Show me some of your treasures.....and have a blessed day!

Masters galleries take Tiger to heart
In his wildest dreams, Tiger Woods couldn’t have hoped for a better return.
At the end of an eventful day, even Woods was surprised.
But as good as his start to the tournament was, the tone of the Woods comeback wasn’t determined by his three birdies or the two eagles, but by the fans.
He was embraced, encouraged and applauded. We saw Thursday that forgiveness is possible; that people are willing to give Tiger Woods a second chance.
“The people, I haven't heard them cheer this loud in all my years here,” he said. “I said thank you all the way. I was saying thank you all day. The people were just incredible, incredible all day.”
And maybe that was the real lesson of Thursday for Woods:
that redemption isn’t a one-way street.
He has his part to do, too.

I'm just itchin'...
to get out in my flower beds! This last few days of warm weather has everything sproutin' up quickly.
I am coming, I am coming!
Hark! the honey bee is humming;
See, the lark is soaring high
In the blue and sunny sky,
And the gnats are on the wing
Wheeling round in airy ring.
Listen! New-born lambs are bleating,
And the cawing rooks are meeting
In the elms--a noisy crowd.
All the birds are singing loud,
And the first white butterfly
In the sunshine dances by.
Look around you, look around!
Flowers in all the fields abound,
Every running stream is bright,
All the orchard trees are white,
And each small and waving shoot
Promises sweet autumn fruit.
~ Spinach salad ~
1 clove garlic, crushed
1/3 c. honey
1 tbsp. lemon juice
1/3 c. salad oil
3/4 lb. fresh spinach
1/2 c. red onion
1 (8 oz.) can mandarin oranges

LONDON - Two women were arrested at a British on suspicion of trying to smuggle a dead relative onto a flight bound for Germany, police said on Tuesday.
The 91-year-old deceased man was pushed in a wheelchair through Liverpool's John Lennon airport wearing sunglasses before check-in staff became suspicious on Saturday and he was prevented from boarding the plane.
He was believed to have been driven about 35 miles to the airport by taxi from Oldham, Greater Manchester, police added. "Two women aged 41 and 66 were arrested on suspicion of failing to give notification of death."

"When Jesus rose from the grave,
He proved Himself Lord over all creation - because only the One who made all - could overcome death itself. He is alive, and because He is alive, we can trust Him completely and fully. And all will stand before Him and give an account for what they did with that knowledge!
Some may try to reject it, others may try to explain it away. But Jesus Christ is alive and He will have the final say when all is said and done.
May we believe this day in this simple truth: Jesus Christ, sinless in all ways, died in our place to pay a penalty that we could not, and He rose again 3 days later.
