Beautiful pictures - THANKS - I enjoyed them.
Speaking of beauty, my wife and I took another drive out into our Wildlife Refuge tonight. We saw a lot of animals the last time, but we were stopped from going to our favorite place by a wildfire being fought. We went back tonight and were pretty sad to see so many more acres burned and black, but we saw more animals than ever tonight.
We are assured that all of the animals will be cared for. In the midst of all the destruction, there was new life (i.e. deer, long horns, and buffalo). They are beyond cute and beautiful. I wish that I could take good pictures, but that isn't one of my skills. Many of the animals we saw tonight were just days or weeks old. It's a stark contrast between what is destroyed and what is new.
Thanks Brother Dave for the information on a good camera. My wife and I just might go shopping for one soon. We have a Kodak that might work if we learn a little more about how to use it. I wish we had the camera with us on our last visit to the Wildlife Refuge. We had to potential to take some really nice pictures. We've had several times just recently with wild animals just feet away from us. A couple of weeks ago we were sitting on our favorite bench near a stream with a 10-point Bull Elk just about 25 feet away from us. We just sat quietly and watched him eat. I assume he didn't think we represented much of a risk. The animals on our refuge are definitely wild, but they are all completely protected, so many of them don't fear people.
At the least, you've encouraged me to try some more with pictures.
Thanks again for the good information Brother Dave.
I'll get Paint.net, and I just got a printer that will do all kinds of things with photos.
I already can upload my pictures from my camera to the computer, so I might be able to do more than I think.
It's ironic that I've done all kinds of work with graphics but little or nothing with photos.
It's Friday and almost the start of the weekend.
HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!
Hi gang, I was busy this past weekend...
took over 300 pictures in our local area...
I will share a few in the next few days.
I also went to church again...
both times I heard things that really helped
to direct my heart into the Lord ways...PTL!
I am tired today...need a nap.
I'm having a good time today reading a variety of great Christian materials. As usual, my favorites are authors from the 1800s. And, as usual, my favorite site on the Internet is Grace Gems. Take a look when you have some time, and I'm sure that you won't be disappointed:
Grace Gems!
Before I forget, I wish everyone a great week.

Here is a nice one I shot about 3 miles out in the Gulf of Mexico. South of Mobile Bay.
Will be back online soon. My home PC is currently not working, and hope to get it running again soon. Plan to buy a laptop computer for a new business. I'm thankful for another career opportunity. Have a blessed week.
